Answer:

The main idea was that believers could only be saved by their faith, not their deeds, and that they should repent to God instead of a priest. This idea was major because it meant that you could find salvation independent from the church and emphasized a more personal relationship with God.

Explanation:

In his thesis, Luther protested a lot of what the church was doing including confessions and indulgences. In his time, it was common for people to pay the priests to "forgive" or put in a good word about them when they talked to God or even reserve a place for them in Heaven. Having studied his Bible, Luther found that these practices weren't biblical and godly and made this known to the people who were being scammed.

Answer:

Popular legend has it that on October 31, 1517 Luther defiantly nailed a copy of his 95 Theses to the door of the Wittenberg Castle church. The 95 Theses, which would later become the foundation of the Protestant Reformation, were written in a remarkably humble and academic tone, questioning rather than accusing.

Read the statement from Philip Schaff.
Ira Lisetskai [31]

Answer:  Because it showed that change is possible

Explanation/context:

The medieval era had been one in which the Roman Catholic Church dominated the culture of Europe, and it was thought that no one could successfully challenge such a deeply ingrained institution.  However, the Reformation movement by Martin Luther and other Protestant figures showed that even something as entrenched and enduring at the Catholic Church could be challenged, and changes could be accomplished.  Even during Martin Luther's lifetime, this idea that change was possible motivated people to launch efforts toward other major changes to powerful systems.  The Peasants Revolt that occurred in Germany in 1524-1525 took  Luther's push for reform in the church and applied it to make a push for change in feudal society.  Martin Luther himself didn't agree with that and opposed the Peasants Revolt, but as Schaff points out, the momentum of the Reformation was a "propelling force" inspiring other "forward movements" to make changes in society.
