✝️ Martin Luther: The Reformer Who Shook the World

👤 Born: November 10, 1483 – Eisleben, Germany
⚰️ Died: February 18, 1546 – Eisleben, Germany
📖 Occupation: Theologian, monk, professor, reformer

🧑‍🎓 Early Life & Monastic Calling

Martin Luther was born into a modest mining family in Saxony. Originally studying law, a thunderstorm and a vow to Saint Anne led him to abandon worldly pursuits and join the **Augustinian monastery** in Erfurt. There, Luther immersed himself in Scripture and theology, seeking peace for a deeply troubled conscience.

📜 The 95 Theses

On October 31, 1517, Luther famously nailed his 95 Theses to the door of the Wittenberg Castle Church—a bold critique of the Roman Catholic Church’s sale of indulgences. This act, intended for scholarly debate, ignited a theological firestorm and became the spark of the **Protestant Reformation**.

🏛️ Trials and Exile

Summoned to the **Diet of Worms** in 1521, Luther stood firm before Emperor Charles V, declaring: “Here I stand. I can do no other.” Declared an outlaw, he found refuge at **Wartburg Castle**, where he translated the New Testament into German—making Scripture accessible to ordinary people for the first time.

📚 Theology and Legacy

Luther’s teachings emphasized **salvation by grace through faith**, the **authority of Scripture**, and the **priesthood of all believers**. He challenged centuries of ecclesiastical tradition, authored numerous theological works, and reformed church liturgy, music, and education.

💍 Personal Life

In 1525, Luther married former nun **Katharina von Bora**, setting a model for Protestant clerical marriage. Their household was a vibrant center of hospitality, discussion, and theological thought.

🌍 Impact

Martin Luther’s influence reshaped the religious, cultural, and political map of Europe. The Reformation gave rise to new denominations, empowered vernacular translations of the Bible, and sowed seeds of modern individual conscience and liberty.
