3 Protestant Reformation

4 Origins of the Reformation Began in Germany because it lacked a strong central government Germany formed core of Holy Roman Empire ( Holy Roman Empire of the German Nation), but empire included 365 independent states Weak emperor could not control independent ideas about religion within the German states

5 Martin Luther German monk, started Reformation Believed in Justification By Faith: a person could be made just, or good, simply by faith in God's mercy and love

6 Selling Indulgences Pope Leo X sold church positions and indulgences Indulgences - certificates issued by the Church that were said to reduce or even cancel punishment for a person's sin

7 People purchased indulgences, believing it insured them a spot in heaven John Tetzel, Church's agent for selling indulgences in N. Germany, promised peasants that indulgences would relieve them of guilt for future sins

8 "Once you hear the money's ring, the soul from purgatory is free to spring."Could also buy indulgences for salvation of their dead relatives - "Once you hear the money's ring, the soul from purgatory is free to spring." Purgatory - place in the afterlife where people are made fit for heaven

16 John Knox Leader of the Reformation in Scotland Founds Presbyterianism based on Calvins teachings Presbytery - group of decision makers of the church Priesthood of all believers

17 Anabaptists Only baptized adult members Denied authority of local governments to direct their lives - said Christ was their only authority (separation of church and state) 1534 - radical Anabaptists seized power in German city of M ü nster (burned books, took property) Lutherans & Catholics united to crush them
