“Hus boldly protested against the crusade and the indulgence (pardon of sin) offered to participants or sold to supporters.” -Douglas & Comfort

            It’s very encouraging to know an individual who courageously stand up for the truth. Nowadays, in our society, it’s seldom to witness people that would show great courage to oppose wrong acts and dismiss the thought of the consequences of doing such thing. As I have noticed, people just allow others pay them big amount of money just to shut their mouth in speaking. Or, some would be defeated of fear whenever their life was threatened. Can’t deny, human as we are, we would do the same thing because we are afraid to die. Few might allow themselves be treated unjustly by those who are seated on higher positions in the community in order to cover the truth. In addition, we would be disappointed of seeing those, who we are thinking as holy and one who would supposed to lead us in the right path, advocate indulgences to be happened. In fact, they were the ones who have read God`s Word. They already know that the pardon of sin is not through indulgences but by the grace through faith in Christ alone. But for the sake of their goals, they have led people astray especially those uneducated peasants, who have thought the teachings as right. Thankfully, there was an individual, who bravely protested against such acts that I believe God used him to enlighten the mind of many.
