Luther

95 Theses:
- 95 objections with the church nailed to the church by Luther
- "Disputation of Martin Luther on the Power and Efficiency of indulgences"
1. people win salvation by faith in Gods gift of forgiveness
2. All church teachings should be based on the Bible
3. All people with faith are equal. People do not need priests to interpret the Bible for them
"Reformed" = "Reformation"

Pushback from church:
- Luthers ideas get popular and church criticizes him and his "heretical" ideas
Pope Leo X- Issues a decree threatening Luther with excommunication unless he took back his statements
- Luther is declared "an outlaw" and a "hectic" and escapes from Worms
- He is supposed to be arrested
- It is made a crime for anyone to give Luther food or shelter
- His writings are banned and books are burned
- Anyone is permitted to kill Martin Luther
- Disguises himself as "Junker Jörg"
