Martin Luther was monk, who wrote 95 these against the Catholic church. The reason for writing those these due frustrations and the corruption against the church system. At that time, people were paying a “ticket” to haven. The church convinced people the only way of having heaven is by paying those tickets. Which doesn’t represent Christian image, what if there’s poor couldn’t afford these certificated doesn’t mean he will go to hell. So Martin Luther nailed the 95 these on the church door without the idea of splitting the church but to be a warranty to church to stop using that system. “Let us, therefore, hold it for certain and firmly established that the soul can do without everything except the word of God, without which none at all of its wants are provided for. But, having the word, it is rich and wants for nothing, since that is the word of life, of truth, of light, of peace, of justification, of salvation, of joy, of liberty, of wisdom, of virtue, of grace, of glory, and of every good thing. It is on this account that the prophet in a whole Psalm (Psalm xxix, and in many other places, sighs for and calls upon the word of God with so many groanings and words.” he explained that the soul has to be willing to accept the word of Christ. Which will follow the grace, light, peace, joy, and etc. Martin Luther views liberty of Christain as “What can it profit the soul that the body should be in good condition, free, and full of life; that it should eat, drink, and act according to its pleasure”. I agree with Martin Luther, a true Christian should be justified and free, but if a person is willing to change it has to come inward first. The idea of willingly listening to God’s word and then outward by filling their daylife with God present.
