John Wycliffe and John Huss both advocated for reform within the Church and emphasized the authority of Scripture over Church traditions. However, they did not support the idea of a strong centralized Church hierarchy or the absolute power of the pope, which characterized the Catholic Church at the time. Additionally, both figures rejected the notion of transubstantiation, which is the belief that bread and wine become the actual body and blood of Christ during the Eucharist. Instead, they promoted a more personal and direct relationship with God, emphasizing individual interpretation of The Bible.
