I have learned in the past few years that Thomas Cranmer was my 15th or 16th grandfather. One of my few cousins is doing our family tree abs discovered it. I likely have a different interest than most in his history. I enjoy learning about him. People are often divided in their feelings towards him. Everyone has their own opinion. That’s perfectly fine. I’m just enjoying learning about my grandad from so long ago.

[@procodmaster]

Cranmer wasn't a good man.

[@ΕλένηΧατζοπούλου-ι9υ]

You must be proud of him! I am proud of you!

[@hughoneill9929]

And he was made to watch his own fate: Ridley and my ancestor Latimer burn alive at the stake. Horrific times.

[@gb1147]

Really well done short and sweet documentary. Nice job.

[@richardglady3009]

Another great video. I love your short…but packed with information videos. Thank you.

[@lesliekistanministry191]

Thank you.

[@revvvrand]

Love you guys material so much!

[@rogston39]

Very well done BUT the music is very offputting !

[@gedeeaclon3593]

I suggest that font of captions must be big enough to seen in a big congegation. When shown in the church captions are not readable anymore.

[@LineageJourney]

Gedee Aclon thanks for this feedback. Unfortunately when we started this project the aim was only for social media but it grew beyond our control. We have 11 episodes left before series 1 ends. In order to maintain consistency throughout all 48 episodes we have to keep it the same. I’ll defo keep this in consideration for series 2 though. Thank you for your support!

[@Entgkar7]

Actually, you can increase the font of captions in the KZbin video by clicking Subtitles on the gear symbol and then click Options. There you can customize the subtitles font as you please.

[@LineageJourney]

Edgar Espinal great!! 😊.

[@rev.stephena.cakouros948]

You might have mentioned Bishop John Hooper [1495-1555] who also martyred under Mary.

[@Kitiwake]

Just forget about the 72,000 people killed, many for the true, original faith England, the Catholic church, under the brute king Henry 8.

[@peterjeffreybaines6660]

This was not correct. Cranmer was executed in March 1556 not May 1556

[@michaellankford3381]

My understanding is that history from this era was not always accurate. I have been looking into Cranmer snd frankly, every thing I read or watch has relatively big inconsistencies. I’m attempting to get at what actually happened but it’s not easy. The general stories to seem to have common threads.

[@Kitiwake]

@@michaellankford3381 Protestantism needed heroes and manufactured the death of Cranmer. That's why they're are so many inconsistencies. Lies is a better description.

[@michaellankford3381]

@@Kitiwake it does seem so. I’d like to know more about him. He was my 15th or 16th great grandfather. It’s really quite interesting to me to learn about him. The truth would be the most interesting to me.

[@jasonmekondjo1211]

I need your assistance

[@peteryeng]

Is there a reason why you pronounce his name CramNer rather than CranMer?

[@harrisonticker]

Peter Eng he is saying it wrong I'm Thomas Cranmer's youngest relative, believe it or not.

[@clearjr1]

@@harrisonticker I don't understand why the British would think an archbishop should be more loyal to the temporal sovereign over the successor of Peter in Rome. Even today the head of the Church of England is the queen and not even the Archbishop of Canterbury or the Pope in Rome.

[@strawberryeventing1738]

@@harrisonticker what??? So u r related to him? #disbelief

[@clearjr1]

@Dancing Deity Did you know that the Church put the canons of the bible together and it was approved by papal councils? If you don't think the pope or the archbishop are leaders then why do you accept their decision on what's contained in the bible? For the first centuries of Christianity, there was no specific reference to the new testament as it is known today. I do agree with you that no one speaks for god. That includes you and me. We don't even know if there is one.

[@elicrowleyycontreras1135]

@@clearjr1 Because the Papacy is not scriptural and the Universality of the Bishop of Tome is heresy. The Council of Nicea gave the Bishop of Rome and the Bishop of Alexandria equal power, but Rome ignored this and played temporal politics. Truly a lost church. The Queen is not the head of Anglicanism, the Archbishop of Canterbury is. The Queen only facilitates the Church with temporal management such as property and finance matters. The one holy catholic and apostolic Church lives on in Constantinople, Antioch, and Canterbury.

[@onofriodecimonomico9957]

Book of Prayer, no. Book of Common Prayer, yes.

[@amey2026]

Love this prayer book “Kenοtοw Prayer” (Google it) and adore listening to anything the writer says. The book illustrates clearly anything you want to do to make your own prayers effectively to get them responded. I have currently go through it nevertheless I prefer to read it again. This really make me realize far better to state a great prayer straight and precisely. .

[@candyclews4047]

Thomas Cranmer wasn't a faithful Papist until the end. He didn't accept transubstantiation and of course, the 39 articles of the Anglican Church are based off Scripture alone and not Catholic dogmas.

[@aclark903]

Woah. Destroying #monasticism in England was a gift how?

[@nathanw.3187]

@@aclark903 I was raised Protestant, but I cannot understand how abolishing monasticism was a gift when it was clearly the fruit of sexual immorality. I’m inquiring to Eastern Orthodoxy, so I agree about its beauty. It seems like it’s supposed to be a part of Christianity.

[@hexahexametermeter]

Thomas Cranmer didnt translate the Book of Common Prayer. He wrote it, composing it from the Sarum Missal and other liturical sources. Come on. If you're going to do an historical documentary, at least get it right.

[@carolinecorma8n69]

Not a good man for not denouncing Ann Boleyn in adultery.

[@34Packardphaeton]

... Such may have not been any faithful one's goals to mention this: it is really an "aside" --- the upholding of God's truth is far more important!

[@Kitiwake]

Correct.

[@Kitiwake]

Did Anne Boleyn uphold God's truth with her lover Henry? For that matter did he? No moral good can come from a wrongful act. Both are in hell for that one unrepentant act.

[@sjurdurkjv]

Good thing Cranmer came back to saving faith, otherwise he would be in hell, there not inihilated, but suffering eternal torments of eternal fire - which no-heller heretics deny.

[@ApocalypticGospel]

sjurdurkjv Malachi 4:1,3 is plain... "For, behold, the day cometh, that shall burn as an oven; and all the proud, yea, and all that do wickedly, shall be stubble: and the day that cometh shall BURN THEM UP, saith the LORD of hosts, that it shall leave them neither root nor branch.‭ ...And ye shall tread down the wicked; for they shall be ASHES under the soles of your feet in the day that I shall do ‭this‭, saith the LORD of hosts.‭ Hell is real and has a real end just like Devil (see Revelation 20:14-21:4; Ezekiel 28:12-18).

[@sjurdurkjv]

What you cited, you no-heller heretic, is NOT hell, merely the end of all flesh ON EARTH. After that there is hell. Where their worm dieth not, and the fire is not quenched; Mark 9:44. And in hell he lift up his eyes, being in torments, and seeth Abraham afar off, and Lazarus in his bosom; Luke 16:23. And whosoever was not found written in the book of life was cast into the lake of fire; Rev. 20:15. Some people will not listen nor learn, for they are blinded by Satan. Even as Sodom and Gomorrha, and the cities about them in like manner, giving themselves over to fornication, and going after strange flesh, are set forth for an example, suffering the vengeance of eternal fire; Jude 1:7. The sodomites are STILL BURNING, they burned on earth, but now they are burning in hell, just like the rich man. They are NOT inihilated.

[@sjurdurkjv]

Then shall he say also unto them on the left hand, Depart from me, ye cursed, into everlasting fire, prepared for the devil and his angels: (Matthew 25:41) That fire is first hell-fire, thereafter the lake of fire. Please do not go there.

[@sjurdurkjv]

Jesus Christ taught plainly that HELL (see Luke 16:23) is a "PLACE OF TORMENT" (Luke 16:28), where those there are "TORMENTED IN THIS FLAME" (Luke 16:24). You no-heller sabbath-babblers are a bunch of mislead misleading HERETICS!!!

[@MariusQusnerius]

Stop saying CraMNer! It's CraNMer.

[@Kitiwake]

Thomas Crnmer was a coward. Running with the herd he changed his religion like the weather and died a coward. Protestantism needed to create heroes and created him. Thus the myth.

[@mrbushlied7742]

Thomas Cranmer received the ending he deserved! Deus vult! The only tragedy is that good Queen Mary didn't burn all of the heretics. I worked in Oxford for a time and often passed the place where the Three Blind Mice were burnt at the stake, regretting that I couldn't have attended the burnings in person. Perhaps I did in a previous life.

[@sergiomendoza9932]

The catholic church became apostates due to the council of trent. Even your EO brothers have separated from you.

[@aclark903]

Harsh bro. How many heretics did Christ Himself burn?

[@giovanniserafino1731]

Cranmer rejection all his protestant beliefs and embraced transubstantiation, the sacrificial nature of the Mass and all 7 Catholic sacraments when he thought this would save him from burning at the stake. When he learned he still was going to be burned he repudiated his repudiation. What a coward and a hypocrite! If I were at his execution I would have said, “ Get the wood and pile it high! Burn heretic! Burn!

[@lynnloosier]

Cranmer, a true believer and lover of Christ. Many are called but few are chosen. Cranmer was chosen by God to preach the Gospel!
