Summary

"The Last Age of the Church" by John Wycliffe is a religious writing from the 1300s that explores big questions about Christian beliefs and what was happening in the Church then; it's like a deep examination of religious ideas and the Church's problems, especially the idea of the Antichrist, offering strong criticism of things like corrupt priests and the buying and selling of Church positions. The author looks at the Church's condition and upcoming difficult times, connecting them to old predictions about a future filled with spiritual struggles. The book suggests that before the Antichrist arrives, the Church will face increasing problems like abuse of power by priests and moral decline. By referencing important religious figures, the author points out problems like failing faith and weak leadership and urges people to make changes and get back to true Christian beliefs, acting as both a warning and a call for believers to see and fix the Church's declining honesty and power.

About the Author

John Wycliffe was an English scholastic philosopher, Christian reformer, Catholic priest, and a theology professor at the University of Oxford. Wycliffe is traditionally believed to have advocated or made a vernacular translation of the Vulgate Bible into Middle English, though more recent scholarship has minimalized the extent of his advocacy or involvement for lack of direct contemporary evidence.
