Martin Luther

I am a German Monk who started the Protestant Reformation in the 16th century. I split from the Roman Catholic Church to begin the Protestant Tradition.

One thing, and only one thing, is necessary for Christain life. That one thing is the holy Word of God. I dont believe that you need priests to show you the word of God. Therefor, I don't agree with indulgences, or the way the church is run. #nomoreindulgences #thechurchiscorrupt

My followers and I formed the Lutheran Church, a new branch of Christianity. We simplified the religion of Catholic. The services, teaching, and rituals were preached in German rather than Latin. Many Germans left the Roman Catholic church in favor of the new faith.

In 1520, @popeleox15 demanded that I retract my teachings on pain of excommunication. However, I firmly stand by what I believe in, and my morals. I was later expelled from the Roman Catholic Church. Through these obsticals, I continued to write and publish my work and beliefs.
