Martin Luther (1483-1546) was a German theologian, professor, and church reformer who is widely regarded as the founder of the Protestant Reformation. He was born in Eisleben, Germany and studied at the University of Erfurt, where he earned a degree in theology.

Luther became a monk and later a professor of theology at the University of Wittenberg. He became increasingly critical of the Catholic Church’s teachings and practices, particularly the selling of indulgences. In 1517, he famously wrote and published his “95 Theses,” which criticized the church’s sale of indulgences and sparked a widespread debate throughout Europe.

Luther’s ideas spread quickly, and he became a key figure in the Protestant Reformation. He translated the Bible into German, making it accessible to more people, and wrote extensively on Christian doctrine and theology. He also advocated for the separation of church and state and the importance of individual faith and personal relationship with God.

Luther’s ideas and teachings had a profound impact on the Church and on Western society as a whole. Today, he is widely regarded as one of the most influential figures in Christian history.
