THOMAS (d. 1531) , See also:English See also:martyr, was See also:born at or near See also:Norwich. The exact date of his See also:birth is uncertain, but at all events it was not before 1495. He was educated at Trinity See also:- HALL

Hall, See also:Cambridge, graduating LL.B. and taking See also:holy orders in 1519. Finding no See also:satisfaction in the See also:mechanical See also:system of the schoolmen, he turned his See also:attention to the edition of the New Testament published by See also:Erasmus in 1516. " Immediately," he records, " I See also:felt a marvellous comfort and quietness." The Scriptures now became his See also:chief study, and his See also:influence led other See also:young Cambridge men to think along the same lines. Among his See also:friends were See also:Matthew See also:Parker, the future See also:archbishop of See also:Canterbury, and See also:Hugh See also:Latimer. Latimer, previously a strenuous conservative, was completely won over, and a warm friendship sprang up between him and Bilney. " By his See also:confession," said Latimer, "I learned more than in twenty years before." In 1525 Bilney obtained a See also:licence to preach through-out the See also:diocese of See also:Ely. He denounced See also:saint and relic See also:worship, together with pilgrimages to See also:Walsingham and Canterbury, and ,refused to accept the See also:mediation of the See also:saints. The diocesan authorities raised no objection, for, despite his reforming views in these directions, he was to the last perfectly orthodox on the See also:power of the See also:pope, the See also:sacrifice of the See also:mass, the See also:doctrine of See also:transubstantiation and the authority of the See also:- CHURCH

church. But See also:Wolsey took a different view. In 1526 he appears to have summoned Bilney before him. On his taking an See also:oath that he did not hold and would not disseminate the doctrines of See also:Luther, Bilney was dismissed. But in the following See also:year serious objection was taken to a See also:series of sermons preached by him in and near See also:London, and he was arrested and imprisoned in the See also:Tower. Arraigned before Wolsey, See also:Warham, archbishop of Canterbury,
and several bishops in the See also:chapter-See also:house at See also:Westminster, he was convicted of See also:heresy, See also:sentence being deferred while efforts were made to induce him to recant, which eventually he did. After being kept for more than a year in the Tower, he was released in 1529, and went back to Cambridge. Here he was overcome with remorse for his See also:apostasy, and after two years determined to preach again what he had held to be the truth. The churches being no longer open to him, he preached openly in the See also:fields, finally arriving • in Norwich, where the See also:bishop, See also:Richard Nix, caused him to be arrested. Articles were See also:drawn up against him by See also:Convocation, he was tried, degraded from his orders and handed over to the See also:civil authorities to be burned. The sentence was carried out in London on the 19th of See also:August 1531. A See also:parliamentary inquiry was threatened into this See also:case, not because See also:parliament approved of Bilney's doctrine but because it was alleged that Bilney's See also:execution had been obtained by the ecclesiastics without the proper authorization by the See also:state. In 1534 Bishop Nix was condemned on this See also:charge to the See also:confiscation of his See also:property. The significance of Bilney's execution lies in the fact that on essential points he was an orthodox See also:Roman See also:Catholic.
