You have your Bible in English today because - on this day, October 6, in 1536, William Tyndale was burned at the stake for disobeying the authorities.
It was deemed a danger to society for individuals to read the Bible themselves. If an individual wanted to learn more about the Bible, they needed to join a congregation, have it read to them by an ordained priest, and in the Latin language.
William Tyndale was considered selfish and dangerous for putting the individual over the group.
@sinbach High time to spread scriptures using printing hard copies as well as digital means including pill Bible. The relevance of using MP3 players and simple audio bibles in 3rd world countries; only a person like you who had travelled extensively through some of those most needy places on earth can explain to our brothers and sisters in the West. Slowly the 'World rulers' are forcing people to use cloud storage, etc. Which can be wiped out any time they wish.
@Jo_PrayerN_actionCenter none of our digital Bibles are connected to a cloud service. both our printed bibles and digital bibles are 'hard copy' in that way. but for printed bibles, we print anywhere from 200k - 1 million Bibles per year and pay for the distribution.
