Answer:

Martin Luther essentially believed that the only path to Salvation was a person's personal faith in Christ and not any actions that can be approved by the Church.

Explanation:

In his time, the Church would sell 'Indulgences', pieces of paper given in return for charitable efforts, prayers etc

People would collect these 'indulgences' as a way to collect enough in order to guarantee a path to heaven or get some for loved ones.

It is true, that a lot of this money was used to build grand cathedrals there even developed a black-market for the buying and selling of these.

Martin Luther was completely correct in his stance against this practice.

The correct answer is:

C. The spread of monotheism threatened meccas economy, which relied on the wealth of non-muslim pilgrims.

Explanation:

Muhammad (570-632 d.c) was the founder of the Islam, Muslims believe that he was God's last messenger, and that he was chosen to deliver the word of God. Muhammad's revelation occurred when he was 40 years old, and the following 13 years he faced great opposition from leaders in Mecca mainly because of his message of monotheism (one God).

Leaders in Mecca believed in many gods, and saw their power and economy threatened by Muhammad's words because his message stated equality and individual accountability to God. They feared that Muhammad could seek political power and that if people stopped worshipping their gods, the pilgrimages to Mecca that made them rich could stop too.
