He came before Martin Luther, Calvin and Ulrich Zwingli, how important was his contribution to the Reformation?
I know he personally translated the bible from Latin into English so that the common class could read what was God breathed in scripture and was at the fore front of exposing the heresy of Roman catholic man made doctrine such as paying friars to absolve someone of their sin and the non biblical concept of purgatory, to put it bluntly, he saw the danger of a imperialized papacy.
One of the chief accomplishments during his life was understanding a major Reformation doctrine of justification by faith.
What say you about Wycliff whether good or bad?
