At the tender age of eighteen, Henry, son of Henry VII and Elizabeth of York, became Henry VIII, king of England. The year was 1509. Henry, a rather obstinate young man, succeeded his father to the throne and married Catherine of Aragon, his dead brother's widow. Autocratic, egotistic and pleasure-seeking, Henry had been raised as a Roman Catholic and was content to remain a true son of that church — content, that is, until he bumped his self-seeking nose against that of the pope. The pope, Leo X, forbade him something you see, and that something was a divorce.

Not much is known about William Tyndale's childhood - who his parents were or what they did. We do know though, that he was a stu­dent at both Oxford and Cambridge universities, and that he was a very good stu­dent. God had set a special task aside for him, (Eph. 2: 10), and these universities equipped William with the special tools he would need for that task. In 1521 Tyndale was ordained as priest. With love he preached that salvation was free and that it was not to be bought by giving money to the church. He also spoke out against the drunkenness and gambling of many priests.
