Martin Luther was a German monk, theologian, university professor and church reformer whose ideas inspired the Protestant Reformation and changed the course of Western civilization.
Luthers theology challenged the authority of the papacy by holding that the Bible is the only infallible source of religious authority and that all baptized Christians under Jesus are a spiritual priesthood.
According to Luther, salvation was a free gift of God, received only by true repentance and faith in Jesus as the Messiah, a faith given by God and unmediated by the church.

of God, received only by true repentance and faith in Jesus as the Messiah, a faith given by God and unmediated by the church.
Luther's confrontation with Charles V at the Diet of Worms over freedom of conscience inand his refusal to submit to the authority of the Emperor resulted in his being declared an outlaw of the state as he had been excommunicated from the Roman Catholic Church.
Because of the perceived unity of the medieval Church with the secular rulers of western Europe, the widespread acceptance of Luther's doctrines and popular vindication of his thinking on individual liberties were both phenomenal and unprecedented.
His translation of the Bible into the vernacular, making it accessible to ordinary people, had a tremendous political impact on the church and on German culture.
It 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 sitelink 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.
As a result of this and his revolutionary theological views, his legacy remains controversial, sitelink.
