Why Did Martin Luther Wrote The 95 Theses

Martin Luther wrote the 95 theses. “The 95 theses” are a list of questions for discussion or debates that they had from Martin Luther. The 95 theses is a document with teachings in it of the Catholic Church. It was important because the people needed to know what they were getting themselves into. Very few people believed in Martin Luther. The Pope had burned Martin Luther’s belongings because he refused to give up on his writings. The Catholic Church people didn't like the idea that Martin Luther was trying to tell the other people of the city wrong. He spent his time writing the 95 these for people who were very ungrateful for it. The pope wanted Martin Luther to just stop writing it, but instead Martin Luther had someone printing out his

writings so that he could post them on Catholic Church's doors. The whole point of writing the 95 theses was to let the people know. He wrote about things that was wrong about the church. He thought that the pope had too much power and he also thought that the church was entirely too wealthy, he also didn't like the fact that you had to pay for the sins that you make or have made.

The Pope was the one to decide what you have to do on certain days or on the day that he tell you to do something. If he said wear green on a certain day, that is what everyone would have to do. I the pope said bring in a certain amount of money, then that is also what you would have to do. He controlled those people like a master to a dog. Martin Luther was once a munk. One day he decided that he wanted to go for a little short walk. So on that day, when he was going for a walk, it started to lighten. He was walking towards a big tree. Then all of a sudden, the lightning had struck the big tree. Since Martin Luther was so close to the tree, it had knocked him over. Laying face down on the hard grown, Martin Luther had realized that God had saved his life and spared him to live on the earth longer, so after that day, he decided that he wanted to be a munk. After he had became a munk, he was very faithful to God, because God could have let him die that very day that he had got knocked face down by the large tree that was struck by

lightning. After a while he started realizing some things were not right. He ended up doing a good bit of research. He started writing like crazy. He was working non-stop on the 95 theses. Every time he found something wrong with the Catholic Church, he would write them down. He got them printed and posted. Martin Luther was also excommunicated with the church. Excommunicated is like being disfellowshipped, when you can come to the “church” anymore.
