The full significance of the church towards the abuses of indulgence?

∙ 9y ago
The abuse of indulgences is a serious sin, and always has been. The significance of this is that one errant friar who ended up not believing that serious sin can cost you an eternity in hell, left the Church and dragged a good portion of the Holy Roman Empire with him. His name was Martin Luther, and he has deprived millions of people for many generations of their access to Christ's saving sacraments in His Church due to his personal problems.
