Motion text
That this House notes the ongoing work of a number of organisations, including the Trinitarian Bible Society, to commemorate the 500th anniversary of William Tyndale translating the Bible into the English language in 1525; and recognises that this momentous event meant that, for the first time in history, millions of people for whom English was their first language began to have the opportunity to read the Bible for themselves, which transformed religious practices and subsequently enabled tens of millions of lay people, and those with no previous religious leanings or upbringing, to learn from the scriptures in their own language, and know the transforming power of the saving grace that comes about in Christ alone.
