Essay on Martin Luther Reformation
Martin Luther: Reformer
Martin Luther was born in Eisieben, Germany, on November 10,1483, St. Martin’s
Day. He was the son of Has Luther, a coal miner, and Margarethe. Martin’s parents
were of the middle class and were unbending in their disciplinary acts. He attended the best schools

He always felt that he did not do enough to receive salvation. He felt unworthy of receiving
salvation and this left him unsure of his afterlife. He looked for ways to prove his worthiness to the
Lord. He thought that no mere mortal could approach the majesty and holiness of God. There for he
thought one couldn’t obtain salvation from doing many good works, but rather through

against the Catholic Church.
Luther was one of the greatest contributors of the Reformation. He posted his 95 theses on the
Church door for the world to see. He was not afraid of the Church and openly spoke out against its
evils. He didn’t take back his word when it was certain he could die during his
appearance before the emperor at the Diet of Worms. He started Lutheranism and inspired others to
speak out against the Church.
