The Martyrs: Hugh Latimer and Nicholas Ridley
Psalms 119:105, Isaiah 2:4, Luke 15, John 8:12, Romans 7:24, 1 Timothy 1:15
1 Timothy 1:15 is highlighted as the pivotal verse that transformed Thomas Bilney’s life, leading to his conversion and subsequently that of Hugh Latimer. The passage emphasizes that “Christ Jesus came into the world to save sinners,” a truth that resonated deeply with both men. This verse is prominent because it encapsulates the core message of the Gospel—the offer of salvation to all—and demonstrates the profound impact that understanding and accepting this truth can have on an individual’s life, turning even the staunchest opponents into devoted followers.
