The publication of Martin Luther’s 95 theses brought the whole of Medieval Christendom into a stir within a relatively short period of time resulting into a massive protest against the doctrinal and moral abuses of the Roman Catholic Church hierarchy.

Originally written in Latin, a student copied the document, translated it into German and then sent it to the university press for distribution throughout Germany. Shortly thereafter, the beginning of the Protestant Reformation could be felt in the air posing as a threat to the then deteriorating church of Medieval Christendom.

Church historian Philip Schaff notes, “They sounded the trumpet of the Reformation. They found a hearty response with liberal scholars and enemies of monastic obscurantism, with German patriots longing for emancipation from Italian control, and with thousands of plain Christians waiting for the man of Providence who should give utterance to their feelings of indignation against existing abuses, and to their desire for a pure, scriptural, and spiritual religion.”
