The answer is Martin Luther. He is the founder of the Lutheran Church. He criticized the selling of Indulgence by the Catholic Church and translated the Bible into German making it possible for ordinary people to read it. Jan Huss was one of the forerunners of the Reformation while John Calvin and Ulrich Zwingli came after Luther.
