Luther used these theses to display his displeasure with some of the Church's clergy's abuses, most notably the sale of indulgences; this ultimately gave birth to Lutheranism. Luther's popularity encouraged others to share their doubts about the Church and to protest against its ways; it especially challenged the teachings of the Church on the nature of penance, the authority of the Pope and the usefulness of indulgences. They sparked a theological debate that would result in the Reformation and the birth of the various Lutheran, Reformed, and Anabaptist denominations within Christianity.","brand":"Classic Century Works","offers":[{"title":"Default Title","offer_id":47147307401456,"sku":"2940012403155","price":0.99,"currency_code":"USD","in_stock":true}],"thumbnail_url":"\/\/cdn.shopify.com\/s\/files\/1\/0737\/7593\/9824\/files\/2940012403155_p0.jpg?v=1763568454","url":"https:\/\/shop-qa.barnesandnoble.com\/products\/2940012403155","provider":"Barnes \u0026 Noble (DEV)","version":"1.0","type":"link"}
