Detailed explanation-1: -Luther argued against the practice of buying or earning forgiveness, believing instead that salvation is a gift God gives to those who have faith. Luther’s objections to the indulgence system paved the way for other challenges to the Catholic doctrine throughout Europe.
Detailed explanation-2: -1. What is an indulgence? An indulgence is the full or partial remission of temporal punishment for sins after the sinner confesses and receives absolution. Under Catholic teaching, every sin must be purified either here on earth or after death in a state called purgatory.
Detailed explanation-3: -The Catholic Church has also been criticized for its active efforts to influence political decisions and governments, such as the Church’s promotion of the Crusades, opposition to contraception, secular education, and LGBT rights, and its involvement with various 20th-century far-right dictatorships.
Detailed explanation-4: -Martin Luther disagreed with the Catholic Church because they sold indulgences as a sign of greed, hypocrisy, and moral rot in the Catholic Church leading to the Protestant Reformation.
