A short biography.
International Director To all our friends around the world who are eagerly anticipating the release of the new DVD: 'The Real Jesus: A Response to the Jesus Seminar, The Da Vinci Code and the Christological Heresies of Pop Culture' -- Be strong and of great courage! The truth is marching on! Models for Reformation: John Knox (1505-1572) John Knox was ordained a priest in the Roman Catholic Church in Scotland at the time when John Calvin began the Reformation of Geneva
The flames of the Reformation began to be kindled in Scotland in the heart and mind of Knox's close friend George Wiseheart
When Wiseheart was burned at the stake by Cardinal Beaton, the fires that consumed his body fired the heart of John Knox
Two years later, Beaton was assassinated by "parties unknown." Shortly after the death of Beaton, John Knox came to Edinburgh as a newly ordained priest, having been accused of "hatching the plot" against the cardinal even though he did not personally take a hand in executing it
Soon Knox had a growing group of followers
He accused the Catholic clergy of Scotland of being "gluttons, wantons and licentious revelers, but who yet regularly and meekly partook of the sacrament." Knox traveled to Geneva three times to study under Calvin who had a high regard for the young Scotsman

Anthony Curto Knox finally returned to Scotland only to battle compromise and Queen Mary in an effort to extend Biblical reformation among his people
Establishing A Protestant Nation John Knox returned to Scotland on May 2, 1559, when the political and religious climate was stormy
On his arrival in Scotland, Knox heard about the state of affairs in Perth, after just two nights in Edinburgh, travelled to Dundee where he requested of the Lords, "that he might be permitted to assist his brethren, and to give confession of his faith with them." Permission was granted to him, and he then set out for Perth
Anna Locke, Knox writes, "I see the battle shall be great; and I am come, I praise my God, even in the brunt of the battle
Assist me, sister with your prayers, that now I shrink not when the battle approacheth." When Knox arrived in Perth, Sir James Croft reports that he became the center of the movement, even though he was still not sure what lay ahead; at this time, he was "uncertain as yet what God shall further work in this country, except that I see the battle shall be great, for Satan rageth even to the uttermost." Knox, then, did not hesitate to jump right into the thick of controversy

The Forgotten Memoir of John Knox: A Year in the Life of a Supreme ...
Excerpts from the memoir of a Supreme Court clerk who served the notorious Justice
James C. McReynolds during the year that FDR threatened to pack the Court.
'John Knox was an earnest young man, fresh from Harvard Law School in 1936, who lucked his way into a Supreme Court clerkship—only 'luck' isn't quite the right word
Knox's memoir of his clerkship, published now for the first time, offers a rare glimpse into the private world of the Supreme Court at a remarkable time in our history
Knox found that 'a chill was gradually descending on my spirits.' Little wonder
The mean old judge, the ambitious but feckless secretary, the two mistreated but keenly watchful servants, all four contained within the walls of a spiffy yet cold and claustrophobic apartment—it is a delicious combination, packed with drama, irony and drollery.'—Jonathan Yardley, Washington Post Book World 'Had Balzac turned his wit on our nation's capital, the resulting novel might have been the story of John Knox.…Eccentric and exciting political and social history.'—Jeff Greenfield, Harper's 'This book has novelistic force, like One L or The Paper Chase
Most telling for me was the view of black Americans as they study, protect, and sometimes shake their heads at the powerful white people they know as flawed human beings.'—Juan Williams Excerpts from The Forgotten Memoir of John Knox A Year in the Life of a Supreme Court Clerk in FDR's Washington Edited by Dennis J

Anna Locke, Knox apologizes for the brevity of his correspondence, and adds: "In this mean season, you shall receive my judgment upon the first temptation of Christ, which I wrote being in Scotland at the request of some, who before, being in great anguish, did confess themselves somehat reclaimed: yea, as they said, brought from the bottom of hell by the doctrine of the same

For ministers like John Knox, Mary represented a serious threat to the whole Protestant cause
Was it to be under the control of a ‘godly’ prince or ‘godly’ ministers? These tensions are well represented in the two key figures - James Stewart and John Knox
John Knox on the other hand was born into a relatively poor East Lothian background
For Knox ‘In religion there is nae middes (middle): one is either of God, or the Devil’
The Confrontation Moray and Knox came into confrontation over the issue of Mary’s private mass
To Knox it was more dangerous than ten thousand armed Frenchmen, and he fuelled the anti-Catholic fire by leading a Protestant mob to Holyrood Abbey to disrupt the Queen's mass
Knox was forced to withdraw and was henceforth regarded as a political liability
The Reformation was ruled by the Lords of the Congregation, not by the rule of Knox and the mob
