Who Was Martin Luther? 95 Theses & The Reformation | World History (1517)

Learn in less than 8 minutes what Martin Luther and the Reformation was all about. We have made this special video, because we really feel how important "sola scriptura" has become in our time again.

Notice: Luther was not flawless and just the beginning of a christian awakening. We celebrate the positive and central aspects of his life, while we will graciously omit secondary and peripheral teachings he held. "Test everything; hold fast what is good." (1 Thes 5:21) "Therefore do not pronounce judgment before the time, before the Lord comes, who will bring to light the things now hidden in darkness and will disclose the purposes of the heart. (1 Cor 4:5 )

Thanks for all your support and we hope these video can really help you to grow spiritually.

Do you know what playmobil is? Guess which figure is the most successful figure in Playmobil history? Martin Luther

Now it’s a real irony that you can buy Luther as an icon. Because Luther hated to make much of himself. He did not want to become history...he wanted the world to know HIS story...that’s God’s amazing story of salvation.

We often hear the story from a historical point of view, but let’s see what happened spiritually here.

Around 30 AD Jesus had given his life and the way was open for every man and woman to come freely to God by confessing their sins. Now those who confessed their sins were later called christians and grouped together as one family to encourage each other. As new members would come in, the older would teach the newbies.

That’s when something terrible happened. The older folks deviated from the word of God and added unnecessary rules. After them others stood up who lusted after power and they understood that they would have total authority over the christians if they could cut the communication between the people and Jesus Christ. So they had to interfere in two sections: Prayer & Scriptures.

So in regards to prayer, they taught that there is a middle person between God and man. The Bible however clearly says: For there is one God, and there is one mediator between God and men, the man Christ Jesus.
The second step was to give only the church the authority to interpret the Bible and to actually read it in language that nobody was speaking at this time: Latin.

That’s when in 1415 a man stood up with the name of Ian Hus. That’s 100 years before Martin Luther. He read the Bible and said: Wait a minute. That’s different to what the church teaches. So the church said: Wait a minute, we are going to burn you at the stake.

And that’s precisely what they did. But before Ian died, chanting in the flame, he said: "Today you all bake a goose (referring to his last name which meant Goose), but there comes a swan which you won't be able to cook."

This swan came 100 years later. They tried to cook it, but they couldn’t. His name was Martin Luther and he destroyed the Catholic Church.
