Jan Hus was a 15th century Bohemian priest who preached reformist views that challenged the Catholic Church's corruption and abuse of power. Inspired by John Wycliffe's teachings, Hus denounced the sale of indulgences and sins of clergy. He was excommunicated, summoned to a church council, and despite an imperial guarantee of safe passage, was imprisoned and burned at the stake for heresy. Hus' martyrdom helped spread reformist resistance against Rome's authority and led to military conflicts between Hussite followers and the Holy Roman Empire.

The 4,000 Year HinduCalvinism Delusion The History of Calvinism Part II - Ses...Jeremy Richard
Calvinism. Reformed Theology. Hard Determinism. This is the major cancer in Protestant Christianity that many a Theologian have tried to combat but with very little success. Reformed Churches are exploding. Reformed Pastors are infiltrating churches and taking them over, satisfied if half the congregation leaves after their Calvinism is brought into the light since that still leaves them with the business organization and in charge. Calvinist board members are secretly recruiting these seminary-trained Pastors behind the backs of other board members and by the time the people of the church find out, it is too late.
Why is Augustine a hero to both the Roman Catholic Church and the Reformers? There was a huge, dangling thread on the sweater that the Church was wearing. That thread was pulled during the research which caused three more threads to be exposed and each time a thread was pulled more threads would show themselves until the entire sweater began to unravel to reveal the nightmare underneath. The answers that were found during this dig through history and the biblical texts will absolutely shock you as 1,600 year old truths will be revealed from under the Gnostic grime.
Christians tend to think that Calvinism only affects Calvinists and as long as they believe their nonsense over there then it doesn't affect them. But this mistaken view couldn't be more in error. HinduCalvinism affects almost everything you think you know about the bible and there is almost no subject in the biblical text that is untouched or unaffected.

5.0 out of 5 stars Excellent, Thought-Provoking and Important Book!
Reviewed in the United States on October 24, 2022
Buy it, read it. Then read it again. This book is not only a must-read for anyone coming out of Calvinism, but is also important for any Christian who is in a church.
For me, even just this first section of the book was amazing! If Calvinist doctrines have harmed the faith of yourself or someone you love, understanding its errors is the first step toward healing and renewed growth. As a parent, understanding the subversive infiltration of Calvinist teachings into Christian thought is the best way to inoculate your children against falling prey to its heresies.
But there is so much more to this book than just providing the reader with a solid defense against Calvinism. This book will turn everything you thought you knew upside down, from your perception of yourself to your conception of the Creator.
This is an excellent, important book, and I highly recommend it.

2024.06.01 Introducing a competency framework for languag learning materials ...Sandy Millin
http://sandymillin.wordpress.com/iateflwebinar2024
Published classroom materials form the basis of syllabuses, drive teacher professional development, and have a potentially huge influence on learners, teachers and education systems. All teachers also create their own materials, whether a few sentences on a blackboard, a highly-structured fully-realised online course, or anything in between. Despite this, the knowledge and skills needed to create effective language learning materials are rarely part of teacher training, and are mostly learnt by trial and error.
Knowledge and skills frameworks, generally called competency frameworks, for ELT teachers, trainers and managers have existed for a few years now. However, until I created one for my MA dissertation, there wasn’t one drawing together what we need to know and do to be able to effectively produce language learning materials.
This webinar will introduce you to my framework, highlighting the key competencies I identified from my research. It will also show how anybody involved in language teaching (any language, not just English!), teacher training, managing schools or developing language learning materials can benefit from using the framework.

Operation “Blue Star” is the only event in the history of Independent India where the state went into war with its own people. Even after about 40 years it is not clear if it was culmination of states anger over people of the region, a political game of power or start of dictatorial chapter in the democratic setup.
The people of Punjab felt alienated from main stream due to denial of their just demands during a long democratic struggle since independence. As it happen all over the word, it led to militant struggle with great loss of lives of military, police and civilian personnel. Killing of Indira Gandhi and massacre of innocent Sikhs in Delhi and other India cities was also associated with this movement.

3. The Reformation movement launched by Wycliffe and his Lollards
in England was intensely opposed and fiercely persecuted by the
Roman church.
The Reformer of Prague
8. Scripture translations from the persecuted Waldensian refugees
had begun entering Bohemia in the 13th Century.
Preparation For Reformation
9. When Anne of Bohemia married King Richard II
she sent copies of Wycliffe’s writings back to her homeland.
10. Queen Anne’s love for the Bible was shared by many of her
countrymen. Soon, Conrad Stickna was preaching the Gospel in
the open air to large crowds. Matthew of Janov travelled
throughout Bohemia preaching against the abuses of the church.
11. His followers were imprisoned and burned at the stake. John Milic,
Archdeacon of the cathedral in Prague, preached fearlessly
against the abuses of the church and wrote “Anti-Christ Has
Come” over a cardinal’s doorway. He was imprisoned.
12. Born in the village of Husinec, Jan Hus studied for the priesthood
and received a Master’s degree in 1396. In 1402 he was
appointed preacher in Bethlehem Chapel.
Courageous Czech Confronts Corruption
13. Jan Hus, when appointed Rector of Prague University at age 34,
also began to preach Reformation principles (in the common
language) in the Chapel of Bethlehem in Prague. Hus translated
Wycliffe’s works into German, exposed the superstitions,
fraudulent “miracles” and the sale of indulgences.
14. In 1405, Hus denounced the alleged appearances of “Christ’s
blood” on communion wafers as an elaborate hoax. He
condemned the sins of the clergy as “fornicators”, “parasites”,
“money misers”, “fat swine”, “drunks” and “gluttons.”
15. He condemned the practice of simony (buying spiritual offices)
and the taking of multiple paid positions without faithfully serving
any. He described churches that sold indulgences as “brothels.”
16. Hus adopted Wycliffe’s view of the Church as an elect community
with Christ – not the pope – as its true Head. Hus' fiery sermons
in the Bohemian language received widespread enthusiastic
support.
17. Hus believed pastors should
be examples of God-fearing
integrity. He preached vivid,
accessible sermons,
which captured the
people’s imaginations.
Hus was described by his
supporters as
“a passionate Reformer.”
18. On the walls of the Chapel of Bethlehem were paintings
contrasting the behaviour of the popes and Christ. The pope rode
a horse; Christ walked bare-foot. Jesus washed the disciples’ feet;
the pope preferred having his feet kissed.
19. Hus insisted that no human institution – including the church –
can be ultimate in authority.
Only God has ultimate authority.
20. In 1410 the Archbishop obtained from the pope a ban on teaching
in chapels, including specifically the Bethlehem Chapel.
This ban Hus refused to obey.
In that same year the Archbishop burned over 200 volumes
of Wycliffe’s works.
21. Hus responded: “Fire does not consume truth. It is always the
mark of a little mind that it vents its anger on inanimate objects.”
Hus defended Wycliffe’s orthodoxy.
Hus was summoned to Rome, but wisely refused to go.
22. Archbishop Zbynek excommunicated Hus.
(Hus was actually excommunicated 5 times)
Hus was described as “radical” and “dangerous.”
Hus then openly attacked the pope’s sale of indulgences
in support of his war against Naples.
The Papacy Strikes Back
23. The pope thereupon placed the City of Prague under a papal
interdict. This meant that the entire city was placed under an
ecclesiastical ban
(all churches were closed,
no masses were allowed,
no confessions received,
no marriages or burials permitted).
24. Until this time Hus had been protected by the king, university
and nobility from the wrath of the pope.
But with the entire city in turmoil,
the Reformer chose to go into exile.
During this time Hus wrote: “On the Church.”
and he preached in the villages and countryside.
25. Hus lived during The Great Schism when Europe was divided
between two and then three rival popes who bitterly
anathematized one another.
Treachery at Constance
26.
27. A General Church Council was called at Constance in 1415
to heal ‘The Great Schism’ (that had raged from 1378).
It was this Council of Constance, which aimed to bring
the Schism to an end that summoned Hus.
28. The Emperor Sigismund guaranteed Hus safe conduct
in both directions, whatever the outcome of the case
against him might be.
29. However, upon arriving, Hus was imprisoned on orders of pope
John XXII. Despite the Imperial guarantee of safe conduct,
Hus was taken through a mockery of a trial in which he was
allowed no defense.
30. Hus had hoped to present his views to the assembled authorities,
but instead he found himself a victim of a cruel Inquisition, which
condemned him for heresies, which he had neither believed nor
taught (including that he had claimed to be the fourth member of
the Trinity!) Hus prayed aloud that Christ might forgive his judges
and accusers.
31. Under pressure to recant Hus declared: “I would not, for a
chapel full of gold, recede from the truth…the truth stands
and is mighty forever.”
Steadfast To The End
32. Hus stated that he would prefer to
be burned in public than to be
silenced in private
“in order that all Christendom might
know what I said in the end.”
33. On 6 July 1415 Hus was condemned to death and taken
35. Hus prayed: “O most holy Christ…strengthen my spirit…give me a
fearless heart, a right faith, a firm hope, a perfect love, that for Thy
sake I may lay down my life with patience and joy.”
36. On arriving at the execution ground, Hus knelt and prayed: “God
is my witness that the evidence against me is false. I have never
thought nor preached except with the one intention of winning
men, if possible, from their sins.
37. In the truth of the Gospel I have written,
taught and preached; today I will gladly die
44. They proved that you could take on the Holy Roman Empire
– and survive!
45.
46.
47. His followers, The Unity
of the Brotherhood,
survived as an
independent church,
co-operating with the
Waldensians and later
with the Lutherans and
the Calvinists.
The Hussites became
known as the
Moravians.
A Spiritual
Heritage
48. Under Count Nicholas Van Zinzendorf the Moravians started a
prayer chain that lasted 150 years! During that extended prayer
meeting, 2,400 Moravian missionaries were sent throughout the
world. Moravians were instrumental in the conversion of John
Wesley.
49. One interesting anecdote is
that Hus is accredited with
making a prophecy
at his death.
“My goose is cooked!”
he said. (Hus is the
Bohemian word for goose!)
“But a hundred years from
now a swan will arise
whose voice you will not
be able to silence.”
