The Parable of the Wicked Mammon

This is a modern English update to William Tyndale's classic work, The Parable of the Wicked Mammon, originally written in 1527 A.D.

The Parable of the Wicked Mammon is a theological treatise by William Tyndale, written in 1527, that explores the relationship between grace, faith, good works, the law, and salvation. Drawing on Jesus' parable of the unjust steward (Luke 16), Tyndale uses the metaphor of "wicked mammon" to critique the misuse of wealth, explain the true nature of good works and their origin, and argue that faith alone justifies a person before God. However, he emphasizes that genuine faith will naturally produce good works as its fruit.

This updated edition, adapted for today's readers, challenges the legalism of Tyndale's time while remaining profoundly relevant for modern audiences. It encourages believers to deepen their understanding of grace by seeking God and embracing Christian responsibility.
