Explanation:

Martin Luther was a German theologian and priest mainly recognized for his role during the Protestant Reformation. During his life (1483- 1546) Luther criticized many of the practices of the Roman Catholic Church as he believed some of the practices and teachings of this church were corrupt, one of the documents in which Luther expressed this was the "Ninety-Five Theses" also called the "Disputation on the Power of Indulgences" in which Luther expressed his position against the selling of indulgences which consisted on people giving a certain amount of money to the clergy leaders in order to reduce their sins after they confessed them. On the opposite Luther believed the remission of sins should be through spiritual repentance and not just external actions or money. Thus, in his "Ninety-Fice Theses" Luther most strongly criticized clergy receiving money for the remission of sins as he believed this kind of remission was not authentical, but part of the corruption of the Church and because of this, he wrote about this situation in the "Ninety-Five Theses" or "Disputation on the Power of Indulgences".
