| | Martin Luther - Wikipedia, the free encyclopedia |
 | | Luther's call to the Church to return to the teachings of the Bible led to the formation of new traditions within Christianity and to the Counter-Reformation, the Catholic reaction to these movements. | | | Luther saw failure to distinguish Law and Gospel properly as the cause of the obstruction of the Gospel of Jesus in the Church of his day, which, he believed, gave rise to many fundamental theological errors in turn. | | | Martin Luther (November 10, 1483–February 18, 1546) was a German theologian, an Augustinian monk, and an ecclesiastical reformer whose teachings inspired the Reformation and deeply influenced the doctrines and culture of the Lutheran and Protestant traditions. |

| | At a meeting with the papal legate at Augsburg in 1518, Luther refused to recant, and in 1519 in a public disputation with Eck in Leipzig he was forced to declare his stand as one at variance with some of the doctrines of the church. | | | Luther worked actively to build a competent educational system; his extensive writing on church matters included the composition of hymns, a liturgy, and two catechisms that are basic statements of the Lutheran faith. | | | Catholic theologians were further aroused with the publication of The Babylonian Captivity of the Church, in which Luther, in an uncompromising attack on the papacy, denied the authority of the priesthood to mediate between the individual and God and rejected the sacraments except as aids to faith. |

| | CATHOLIC ENCYCLOPEDIA: Martin Luther |
| | Luther by the creation of his "universal priesthood of all Christians", by delegating the authority "to judge all doctrines" to the "Christian assembly or congregation", by empowering it to appoint or dismiss teacher or preacher, sought the overthrow of the old Catholic order. | | | Luther's doctrine of consubstantiation, that the body is in, with, and under the bread, was to him devoid of all Scriptural support. | | | Luther himself states that it was a pilgrimage in fulfilment of a vow to make a general confession in the Eternal City. |

| | Reformation: Martin Luther |
| | Luther was not a person you would want to have dinner with; he was temperamental, peevish, egomaniacal, and argumentative. | | | His treatise, "Address to the Christian Nobility of Germany," pressed for the German nation to use military means to force the church to discuss grievances and reform; "A Prelude concerning the Babylonish Captivity of the Church" literally called for clergy in the church to openly revolt against Rome. | | | Luther became more passionate in his effort to reform the church. |

| | Luther's last ties to the established, human authorities was undone by the conversations at Leipzig so that the Bible remained as the only guiding rule. | | | Hans Luder and his wife Margareta Zeigler moved to Mansfeld half a year later, where Martin Luther acquired his first religious knowledge as a young boy, more exactly in the school of the city, which was marked by severeness and religious conservatism. | | | He had been upset over the death of a friend, as well.Yet Luther must have felt doubtful even after the concluded agreement with God, and it was merely the calculated weight of such a promise that compelled him to fullfill the agreement. |

| | Sebastian Franck, who followed Luther for a while, exclaimed: "You think that you have escaped the monastery, but now everybody has to be a monk the rest of his life."[6] Puritanism had always a strongly pseudo-monastic aspect. | | | Still, Luther went to auricular Confession every week of his life; confessionals were removed from Lutheran churches only towards the end of the eighteenth century. | | | Martin Luther emerges from these pages a truly pious, truly religious, devoted, but very emotional man, with a definite leaning towards melancholia. |
