Then, receiving no satisfactory response, the Holy Father stepped in and issued Exsurge Domine on 15 June 1520 condemned numerous propositions of Luther's individually. He also suspended Father Luther's preaching privileges and called on him to repent of his gross errors.
When this had no effect, the Holy Father issued his Bull of Excommunication of Martin Luther, the heretic, and his followers on 3 January 1521 entitlted Decet Romanum Pontificem.
Finally, as Luther's ideas got wilder and more removed from Christianity, and as many German princes followed him into apostasy, The Holy Father called the Council of Trent, which reiterated the teaching of Christ, which had always and everywhere been proclaimed by the Holy Catholic Church, and specifically condemned those protestant heretics who had so rent and spoiled the One, Holy, Catholic Church and Her Teachings.

Why did Martin Luther the roman Catholic church?
He oppose the church when Luther objected to a saying attributed to Johann Tetzel that "As soon as the coin in the coffer rings, the soul from purgatory also attested as 'into heaven' springs."He insisted that, since forgiveness was God's alone to grant, those who claimed that indulgences absolved buyers from all punishments and granted them salvation were in error. Christians, he said, must not slacken in following Christ on account of such false assurances.
Why did the Catholic Church oppose the reformation?
.Catholic AnswerFor the most part, they were more upset with the protestant "reformers" like Martin Luther and Henry VIII then they were with the Church. Luther and Henry were having personal problems dealing with their own sin - they had issues, and instead of confessing their sins and dealing with them, they blamed the Catholic Church In Martin Luther's case, the princes of northern Germany latched on to him and his ideas in order to separate their states from having to pay and be obedient to Rome. In Henry's case, he started his own Church to legitimatize his bastard child by marrying the woman he threw over his Queen for. In the first case the result was the "Lutheran Church", in the second case, the result was the "Anglican Church." In both cases, the people were very upset about losing their Churches, their priests, their sacraments, etc. In the first case, I would recommend The Facts About Luther by Msgr. Patrick F. O'Hare, LL.D., in the second case, I would recommend The Stripping of the Altars: Traditional Religion in England, 1400-1580, by Eamon Duffy.

What did Martin Luther accomplish in church history?
Martin Luther nailed his thesis to the door of the church in 1595 naming many charges against the Catholic church. One example of the wrongs practiced in that day was the marketing of 'Indulgences' or permission to sin for profit. This thesis was the catylist for a church split. At the time the Catholic church had a monopoly over the entire continent of Europe. The Catholic church had brought order and education to Europe which began to reform and pull them out of the Dark Ages. So Luther suffered many long days and nights of indecision before choosing to oppose their power. First reason being, he knew they would use their power to discredit him, even judge and execute him. More importantly, he considered the consequences of the church collapsing and sending Europe back into another Dark Age. Fortunately, that didn't happen, but splitting the church forced the Catholic church to compete and therefor reform and correct many of those bad practices. He also translated the Bible from Latin into language of the common man so they could read it for themselves whereas before, only the educated via the church or the very rich could read it. This too, forced the Catholic church to accountability because their parishioners could now see for themselves how far the church had strayed from the direction of their source material. Not only were new denominations born of Luther's actions, but the original was pulled back under the authority of the scriptures.
