All About GOD

All About GOD - Growing Relationships with Jesus and Others

The time frame of the film is 1507-1530 from the time Luther entered the Augustinian monastery in Erfurt to the presentation of the Augsburg Confession. It recounts his posting of his Ninety-five theses, and the controversy that followed which led to his separation from the church of Rome. It shows Luther’s rather ineffective resistance to the forces of radicalism, and his work to establish and maintain the evangelical movement of his day. The dramatic highlight is his “Here I Stand” speech before the 1521 Diet of Worms, after his excommunication by Pope Leo X in 1520. Leo X is known primarily for the sale of indulgences to reconstruct St. Peter’s Basilica and his challenging of Martin Luther’s 95 theses. The sale of these indulgences was a primary point of contention between Luther and the Roman Catholic church..
