8
Background Son of a coal miner Sent to University of Erfurt to become a lawyer 1505- almost struck by lightning and devotes his life to the study of God; becomes a monk Has a spiritual/identity crisis Questions sacraments, relics, pilgrimages, and indulgences Becomes obsessed with the nature of man’s sinfulness
9
Luther’s Teachings Romans 1:17 “The Just shall live by Faith.” Salvation by God’s grace overcomes the sinful nature of man If you have faith you will do good works
10
Luther’s Teachings 1.People could win salvation only by faith in God’s gift of forgiveness. The church taught that faith and “good works” were needed for salvation. 2.All Church teachings should be clearly based on the words of the Bible. Both the Pope and Church traditions were false authorities 3.All people with faith were equal. Therefore, people did not need priests to interpret the Bible for them.
12
95 Theses 95 Theses October 31, 1517 Luther is infuriated by Johann Tetzel who sold indulgences outside the city of Wittenburg Writes 95 grievances against the Church and nails them to the castle church door in Wittenburg hoping to spark debate The printing press spread his ideas throughout Europe In 1519 Jan Eck challenges Luther to a debate in Leibzig where he accuses Luther of heresy for questioning the authority of the Church
13
Luther’s Grievances Offended by the splendor and the money being spent by the Church on paintings and new churches The sale of indulgences with the purpose of buying your way out of purgatory The sale of church offices
14
The Aftermath 1520- Luther is excommunicated April 1521- Luther is ordered to appear at the Diet of the Holy Roman Empire in Worms Emperor orders him to take back his 95 Theses “Here I stand, I can do no more.” Council of Trent reforms many of the things that Luther addressed in his 95 Theses 1546- Luther dies
15
Council of Trent (1545) Ends the sale of church offices Reaffirms the two sources of God’s truth: Scripture and Tradition Calls for better priest training Reaffirms that faith and works, or sacraments, are necessary for salvation Continuation of indulgences and veneration of relics Retains the Vulgate (Latin) Bible as the official Bible of the Catholic church Continuation of clerical celibacy
