Tyndale burned for translating the Bible
On October 6, 1536, William Tyndale was strangled and burned at the stake for translating the Scriptures into English for the common man. He was accused of heresy and given an opportunity to recant, but used his last words to pray with a loud voice, “Lord, open the King of England’s eyes!”
Within four years of his death, several English translations of the Bible were published in England at the King’s request, all based on Tyndale’s work.
Christ and the Olympics
Team GB’s Adam Peaty has opened up about his faith after winning a silver medal in the men’s 100m butterfly on Sunday evening.
Fresh out of the pool, a breathless but beaming Peaty told BBC Sport: “I gave my absolute all there. In my heart I’ve already won.
“These are happy tears. I’m not crying because I’ve come second, I’m crying because it took so much to get here.
“I’m a very religious man, and I asked God to show my heart, and this is my heart. I couldn’t have done more.”
Escaping gold by only two-hundredths of a second, Peaty tied with Team USA’s Nic Fink for second place. He maintains the world record for breastroke, of 56.88 seconds at the World Aquatics Championships in 2019.
The swimming star has been open about his struggles in recent years, and, having battled “three years of hell” with depression and alcoholism after the Tokyo Olympics, Peaty turned to Christ.
Inner Peace
On the sidelines, a member of manager Gareth Southgate’s coaching team is Chris Powell, who is also a Christian. “It gives me a sort of inner-peace, a sort of well-being,” Powell has said of his Christian faith. “I live my life for this way, and that’s because of the Lord and what has happened, and what he done to save me, and save everyone. It gives me a great joy to know that the Lord is around me at all times.”
Faith in Christ
Donya decided to follow Jesus, but Tahar took a while to be convinced. When he did eventually put his faith in Jesus, he felt an instantaneous change:” it was like that burden came off my shoulders” Tahar says ” the burden I thought I would have- to give an account for my sins when I died- came off. It felt like I was flying. It was the most beautiful moment of my life”
