Step-by-step explanation:

Luther's belief in justification by faith led him to question the Catholic Church's practices of self-indulgence. He objected not only to the church's greed but to the very idea of indulgences. ... Over the next few years, however, his Ninety-Five Theses sparked a religious movement to reform the Catholic Church.
