Jared Joyce 807 10/25/14 Luther Movie Luther was the most important person in the Reformation of the Roman Catholic Church. He was responsible for many important works and writings in the Church, Such as the Small Catechism, The 95 Thesis, and translations of the Holy Bible in many different languages.

history of Old Testament theology from the Reformation to modern times. His main insight, in the article covers the Reformation and The Critical Enterprise, is that, though the reformers freed the Bible from being read only under the teaching of Roman Catholic tradition, their ideas quickly hardened into theological systems and dogmas under which the Bible was read.

Luther is wrong on this idea as well, without providing a system to educate the sinner how to sin no more, and to make them realized is must be some kind of consequences for every sin. I think his idea would kill human conscience because it makes it easy for them to put no effort in affording sin. Luther believed that human did not have any sort of unique power whatsoever to overcome the…

The Protestant reformation was a stage in time where people started to challenge the Catholic Church teachings as they believed that the church had gotten too far away from the bible as a source and that the Pope and Priests were misusing their power. Calvin had a great amount of power including being able to govern a city in Switzerland called Geneva all because of his religious beliefs and theories.…

Even after Calvin was no longer there…
