Reflection On The 95 Theses

The 95 theses were just 95 things that Martin Luther didn’t like about the church. Martin became a teacher and a believer after going from town to town one day and lighting struck hit a tree then he believed god saved him so he became a believer. I think he wrote the 95 Theses cause he was tired of the church doing what they want to do an not pleasing god like a church is suppose to do. The 95 Theses were bad things that the church did.
