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
in his region but all of them held to the barbaric discipline system of the times. This had a big impact
on Martin’s personality. But he did receive some positive influence from his home

the God freely gives people his grace if only one has faith. So Luther stopped worrying about doing

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.
