    Martin Luther was a German theologian and catalyst of the 16th century Protestant Reformation. Born in 1483 in Eisleben, Germany, Luther revolted against corruption in the Catholic Church, particularly the sale of indulgences. He published his 95 Theses in 1517, which argued that salvation is a gift from God and cannot be purchased with money. This sparked the Protestant Reformation, which centered around the beliefs that the Bible is the central authority of faith and that faith alone saves, not good deeds. The Reformation had both positive and negative effects, curbing earlier abuses in the Church but also dividing Christianity.
