Popes: Saints or Sinners?


Erasmus new testament  traveled all over europe. One of his contemporaries was Martin Luther, who was one of the doubters of this new testament; he was a viewer of the old testament attending a German University. 
"A devout monk he had anguished over his own sinfulness and coward over the anger of a ritetous god". 
release came fom a phrase by St. Paul that says "the riotous shall live by faith". Salvation; Luther concluded, came from simple trust in God. 

"If faith alone saved; the paraphernalia of popular religion was a bunch of junk".
