TRANSCRIPT
On a scrap piece of paper, list a few problems
that you feel that exist in this school.
Bellwork
Protestant Reformation
Became a monk in
Germany in hopes to find religious enlightenment He studied and taught the
Bible Helped to expose the
Church’s corruption to Martin Luther
Martin Luther
Selling indulgences
Basically “tickets to heaven” Buying them would erase the
sinner’s sins Also, could help shorten
ancestor’s time in purgatory Where Catholics believe they
must wait before entering heaven to purify them of their sins
Used by the Church to build massive churches or to bribe their way into higher positions within the Church
Corruption of the Church
95 letters about what the
Church was doing wrong Nailed them to the church
door Mainly disagreed with
indulgences Challenged the authority of
the Pope Pope allowed for Luther to
repent Luther ignored the Pope
95 Thesis
Pope Leo X met with King Charles V about
Luther Luther granted safe passage to Worms
John Huss had too… Luther was asked to “recant” his statements
Diet of Worms
“Unless I am refuted and convicted by
testimonies of the Scriptures or by clear arguments (since I believe neither the Pope nor the Councils alone; it being evident that they have often erred and contradicted themselves), I am conquered by the Holy Scriptures quoted by me, and my conscience is bound in the word of God: I can not and will not recant any thing, since it is unsafe and dangerous to do any thing against the conscience.”
Luther’s Response
Girl at Columbine school shooting
Asked if she was Christian with a gun to her head Answered yes, and died
Malala Yousafzai Spoke out for education of women in Pakistan Taliban tried to kill her Still speaks out for education in Pakistan
“If a man hasn’t something in which he would die for, then he isn’t fit to live”.
-Martin Luther King Jr.
Other Examples of People with Incredible Faith
Think about what it is in your life that you
would be willing to die for (it can be an actual thing, it could someone, or it could be for an ideal or value).
Write two paragraphs about what your “thing” is and why it is so special to you.
