- 1. Welll.. I was gone most of the movie so I don't know a whole lot. But from reading the internet and other people's blogs.. I think I have a few ideas. I suppose his "best moments" would obviously be when the german princes stood up to the king. kind of a big deal.. Um also getting married was a highlight. Marraige is always good. And it also proved that a Protestant priest could be marrieed unlike the Catholics. He believed the Catholics were wrong on selling indulges and wanted that to stop. He put a 95 thesis on the doors of a catholic church, this caused him to go into hiding, but it was a very important step. While he was in hiding he also translated the Bible into German, he was the first to do that!
- 2. I would say his weaknesses would for sure be his struggle with the peace of God. He had so many doubts about God. He wasn't faithful to the word which caused him to go crazy a little bit. He was said to have dealt with Satan and talked to him.. he got so low in his faith and so high in his doubts that he went almost mad and had battles with Satan. MAJOR downfall. But on the UP side:) He was a verrryyy strong man. He stood up for his faith and what he believed was right. He didn't just watch from the sidelines like a lot of other people did. He took it to heart. And he made a difference. I mean just look at the difference he's made in our churches today. craazy. Alsoo, he translated the whole Bible into a language (the first time to be translated into a language other than Latin) this was a large accomplishment I would say. And he was very smart. Well like I said before, I watched like 20 minutes of the movie.. So I don't know how great it was. But from what I saw it was hard to keep up with. I think it portrayed him well, like the character was very believable.. But I couldn't watch it for more than like 5 minutes without getting confused. But it was good I guess.

- Martin Luther was a Christian theologian and Augistanian monk who radically changed the Protestant Church and changed the lives of every Christian of the day. The website says that Luther had a struggle with God and who God was. His relationship with Him did not come easy. It says he had a hard time finding peace with God. Luther put a "95 Thesis" on the doors of the Roman Catholic church, people say this was the beginning of the Protestant church. Luther was the first person to translate the entire Bible into the German language. Martin Luther died of natural causes..
