His original intention was only to reform the Roman Catholic Church, but his actions led to a split of the Church, dividing it into the Protestant and Catholic branches.
The reformation movement was fueled by an attempt to reform the Catholic Church. There were a lot of false doctrines and malpractices going on in the church.
Martin Luther started and led the "reformation", essentially telling the Catholic Church that they were corrupt and needed to reform their church in order to once again be the true church.
A reform movement led by Protestant ministers who used religious doctrine to demand better housing and living conditions for the urban poor.
Certain reform movements led women to become leaders of various reform movements. An example is that women believed their lives will improve with women's suffrage that is why they led this reform.
The Reformation happened because there was a controversy on whether the Christian church should have icons or not. It led to disputes whether or not people believed that the church was abusing their power over their followers.
He evidently did. When given the opportunity to recant his diatribe and work within the Catholic Church to reform it, he decided to go his own way and was excommunicated. That should have been little surprise to him.
Martin Luther led religious reform. Martin Luther King led civil rights reform
Catholics refer to Luther's "reformation" as the protestant revolt. The Catholic Church reiterated and defined its teaching at the Council of Trent. The Counter-Reformation was led by scholars, and the Catholic Reform by Catholics.
