Martin Luther is arguably one of the most important reformers in Church history because he was the catalyst to many of the reformations. Luther also has an interestingly dramatic attitude in the way he dealt with life situations. The Catholic Church has been through many ups and downs, but when Luther was called to be a monk the Catholic Church was failing in many ways to be the bride of Christ. When Luther became a monk he began to see the problems with the Catholic Church and wanted to see the…
