Reformed Churchmen

We are Confessional Calvinists and a Prayer Book Church-people. In 2012, we remembered the 350th anniversary of the 1662 Book of Common Prayer; also, we remembered the 450th anniversary of John Jewel's sober, scholarly, and Reformed "An Apology of the Church of England." In 2013, we remembered the publication of the "Heidelberg Catechism" and the influence of Reformed theologians in England, including Heinrich Bullinger's Decades. For 2014: Tyndale's NT translation. For 2015, John Roger, Rowland Taylor and Bishop John Hooper's martyrdom, burned at the stakes. Books of the month.

16 Oxford 1555 A.D. The Oxford Martyrs





16 Oxford 1555 A.D.  The Oxford Martyrs
Uploaded on Nov 26, 2011

This DVD reviews the sacrifice of four almost-forgotten martyrs that stood for truth in England: Thomas Cranmer, Nicholas Ridley, John Rogers, and Hugh Latimer.

Through this mutli-media journey, we visit the church where these faithful believers preached, and trace the steps of their martyrdom under the bloody rule of Queen Mary I. We also take a look at John Henry Newman's conversion to Catholicism and some of the Papacy's more recent assertions in regards to Protestantism.

We discuss the martyrdom of many other noble men and women in England and Scotland including John Knox, the Wesley brothers, and the Covenanters.
