Lessons from History: Wicliffe’s Battle With The Mendicant Friars (Part 2): It was in 1360 that Wicliffe’s public opposition to the mendicant [begging] friars first became notable. The Dominican friars entered England in 1321. In that year Gilbert de Fresney and twelve of his brethren settled at Oxford. The same causes that favoured their growth on the Continent operated equally in England, and this little band recruited to their ranks so rapidly that they swarmed throughout the kingdom.

"But seek ye first the kingdom of God and His righteousness; and all these things shall be added unto you."
Of the scores and scores of doctrines taught by the Roman Church without one shred of authority from the Scriptures, the exaltation of the Virgin Mary, mother of Jesus, is one of the most prominent, and certainly one of the most unscriptural.
The Institute's purpose is to expound the Bible, expose the Papacy, and to promote, defend and maintain Bible Protestantism in Europe and further afield.
It will assist all who are engaged in the struggle against the Papacy in both the religious and the secular worlds; provide courses suitable to all ages in the controversy with Rome; and supply information on all aspects of the Papacy today.
It hopes to establish correspondents throughout the world so that it can give a global overview of the state of Protestantism. C.H. Spurgeon summed it up well in his article on Our Constant War With The Papacy.
