martin luther loved his church ,, the catholic church he was although committed to know the truth , martin luther set out to reform the churches practises such as pennance for sin and paying for indulgences .. paying money to pray for a loved one out of pergatory ,which is still believed ,which is not a biblical doctrine!
martin luther had made up a 95 theisis and had wanted sins of the church and its leaders to recant.. .. did the leaders know their doctrine was wrong? yes ,, did they recant then like peter when confronted by another in their church as a leader?? no! they sought to silence martin luther and they sought to have him murdered,, check out what paul said about what peter did that was wrong in the book of galations.2 from 6 on peter was showing partiality to the jews and distancing himself from his gentile associates .. as if eating with them was a sin! , ..
WAS MARTIN LUTHER PERFECT IN HIS BELIEFS OR his personal life?? no!! was he still sincere in wanting JESUS and him only to be followed ?? yes,, martin luther lived in the middle ages after hundreds of years of spiritual darkness light of the true gospel was just dawning on many reformers .. research it for your self on the net ,, its is available and easily accessed ;; bro mj

Martin Luther (November 10, 1483 – February 18, 1546) was a German monk, theologian, and church reformer. He is also considered to be the founder of Protestantism.

Luther's theology challenged the authority of the papacy by holding that the Bible is the sole source of religious authority and that all baptized Christians are a general priesthood.According to Luther, salvation was attainable only by faith in Jesus as the Messiah, a faith un-mediated by the church. These ideas helped to inspire the Protestant Reformation and changed the course of Western civilization.

Luther's translation of the Bible into the German vernacular, making it more accessible to ordinary people, had a tremendous impact on the church and on German culture. The translation also furthered the development of a standard version of the German language, added several principles to the art of translation, and influenced the translation of the English King James Bible. His hymns inspired the development of congregational singing within Christianity. His marriage to Katharina von Bora set a model for the practice of clerical marriage within Protestantism.

Much scholarly debate has concentrated on Luther's writings about the Jews. His statements that Jews' homes should be destroyed, their synagogues burned, money confiscated and liberty curtailed were revived and used in propaganda by the Nazis in 1933–45. As a result of this and his revolutionary theological views, his legacy remains controversial.

Google "95 Thesis". You'll get them all.

Nutshell, though: Works don't save. Money can't buy salvation. Salvation only through the grace of God.
