Phi 1:17 But the other of love, knowing that I am set for the defence of the gospel.

This web site contains many facts that are not pleasant, if you do NOT like TRUTH, do not proceed further, YOU MAY BE OFFENDED!
Christianity as found in the Bible is NOT the same as practised in the denominations.
This web site will reveal a history hidden from most people, a history that is not politically correct nor revised to fit into peoples ideas - but the truth.
For many centuries the bible was banned, owning one was a serious offence, which resulted in being burnt alive. Simply, the church did not use the bible for it's doctrine but turned to the pagan institutions for doctrine and ceremony. The Arch-Drurid became in time the Arch-Bishop, of a hopelessly corrupt church! The now apostate church had more in common with the pagan Sun worshipers than the Christianity of the Bible.
When the bible did start to become more common, due at first by people copying by hand, and later through the printing press, the establishment across Europe was horrified, both church and state fought together to remove the bible from the common people and even the educated elite.

Heresbach, a friend of Erasmus, reported these words from Thomas Linacer, the respected Oxford professor, and the personal physician to both King Henry the 7th and 8th of England. On reading the New Testament for the first time (1524), Linacer said “Either this is not the gospel, or we are not Christians” having thrown the scriptures to one side.
Even the school of theology in Paris did not scruple to declare before the French parliament, “There is an end of religion if the study of Hebrew and Greek is permitted”.

Andreas Ammonius, (Latin secretary to Henry VIII) under the date of November 8, 1531, wrote to Erasmus (Desiderius Erasmus Roterodamus, who produced the printed Greek New Testament) of the great numbers of Christians in England, which he calls anabaptists. He says: "It is not astonishing that wood is so dear and scarce the heretics cause so many holocausts, and yet their numbers grow".
Erasmus replied that Ammonius "has reason to be angry with the heretics for increasing the price of fuel for the coming Winter" (Brewer, Letters and Papers of Henry VIII, I. p. 285/297). This was horrible jesting concerning the burning alive of brave Christians and shows the true state of the thinking of the Roman Catholic Church in that period towards those who desired to turn the the scriptures for authority.

In 1593 in England it was made a legal requirement for all people over eighteen to attend Church of England Worship, and later, baptismal records were to be kept to check that parents were having their children baptised as infants. Those parents that did not could be burned alive, such was the State religion and their desire to wreak hatred and revenge on any that dare disagree, who today make much of their "wonderful traditions", by not mentioning such inconvenient facts!
