John Wycliffe, Patriot and Reformer: The Morning Star of the Reformation, A Biography is a book written by John Laird Wilson and originally published in 1884. The book is a biography of John Wycliffe, a 14th-century English theologian and philosopher who is known as the ""Morning Star of the Reformation"" for his early advocacy of reform within the Catholic Church.The book provides a detailed account of Wycliffe's life, from his early years as a student at Oxford University to his later years as a controversial figure within the Church. It explores his theological beliefs, including his rejection of the doctrine of transubstantiation and his emphasis on the Bible as the ultimate authority in matters of faith.Wilson also delves into Wycliffe's political views, including his support for English nationalism and his criticism of the papacy. He examines Wycliffe's role in the Lollard movement, a group of dissenters who followed Wycliffe's teachings and sought to reform the Church from within.Throughout the book, Wilson paints a portrait of Wycliffe as a passionate and principled figure who was committed to his beliefs despite facing opposition from both the Church and the state. He also highlights the lasting impact of Wycliffe's ideas on the Reformation and the development of Protestantism.Overall, John Wycliffe, Patriot and Reformer: The Morning Star of the Reformation, A Biography is a thorough and engaging account of one of the most influential figures in the history of Christianity.This scarce antiquarian book is a facsimile reprint of the old original and may contain some imperfections such as library marks and notations.
