In 1517, Martin Luther was a relatively unknown Augustinian monk who, informed by a growing belief that salvation is by faith alone, published and distributed a stark criticism of papal abuses in the Catholic Church. His actions and fervent stance set the wheels in motion for what became the Protestant Reformation.
What later became known as the 95 Theses was a series of statements expressing concern with corruption within the church, primarily the selling of indulgences to the people as a means of releasing them from acts of penitence.
Honoring the 500th anniversary of Luther's revolutionary writing, this paperback volume blends each thesis with an excerpt from one of his later works to provide a convenient way to understand the ideas and concepts that became the seeds of the Protestant Reformation.
