  10. The 95 Theses • What are they? • Luther’s formal statements attacking indulgences • 1517 – Luther posts the 95 Theses on the door of the church and invites other scholars to debate him • Salvation is by faith alone, not faith and good works • Church teachings should only be based on the Bible – not the pope • All people with faith are equal  no need for priests to interpret the Bible for them • 95 Theses are printed and distributed all over Europe • Luther’s actions begin the Reformation
