Emphasis Preaching Journal

In one of the dark chapters of church history, John Huss, the Christ-centered preacher from Bohemia, was brought up on charges of heresy before a church tribunal. He was promised safe passage to and from the inquiry, but when he arrived in good faith, he was arrested and thrown into a filthy prison, shackled with heavy leg-irons, and chained to the wall. All pleas on his behalf by his friends were ignored. He was willing to be corrected with arguments from the Word of God, but his accusers would not debate the issues.
