Explain what was Martin Luther's problem with indulgences and if you think he was right or wrong.
Sauron [17]

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:

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.

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