"Trust wholly in Christ; rely altogether on His sufferings; beware of seeking to be justified in any other way than by His righteousness. Faith in our Lord Jesus Christ is sufficient for salvation. There must be atonement made for sin according to the righteousness of God. The person to make this atonement must be God and man."

John Wycliffe (c. 1320–1384) was a seminal figure in the history of Christianity, known as the "Morning Star of the Reformation." An English theologian and scholar, he challenged the authority of the Catholic Church by advocating for scripture to be accessible to all, leading to the first complete translation of the Bible into English. His teachings inspired movements that would later culminate in the Protestant Reformation. Wycliffe's legacy endures, emphasizing the importance of personal faith and the power of the written word in shaping belief.
