Who was Martin Luther
Martin Luther was a German theologian, professor, and church reformer who is widely known for his role in the Protestant Reformation. Born in Eisleben, Germany, in 1483, Luther was ordained as a Catholic priest in 1507 and was a professor of theology at the University of Wittenberg. His teachings and writings on the nature of salvation and the authority of the church challenged the existing power structures of the Catholic Church, leading to the schism that gave birth to the Protestant movement. #MartinLuther

I cannot and will not recant
I cannot and will not recant anything, for to go against conscience is neither right nor safe. Here I stand, I can do no other, so help me God. Amen. – Martin Luther
