Martin Luther and Justification by Faith
Martin Luther and Justification by Faith is a skill on Pengi from Lesson 3: The Protestant Reformation in Pengi Social Studies (Grade 7).
Key Concepts
In 1517, a German monk named Martin Luther sparked the Reformation. He was outraged by the sale of Indulgences —documents sold by the Church that promised to forgive sins. Luther posted his 95 Theses on a church door in Wittenberg to debate this practice.
Luther went further, rejecting the Catholic teaching that "good works" were needed for salvation. Instead, he proposed Justification by Faith : the idea that salvation comes from faith in God alone. He also declared that the Bible was the only source of religious truth. This led to the founding of the first Protestant church, Lutheranism .
