Why did John Calvin challenge the Catholic Church?
Martin Luther opposed the Church because he felt he wasn't going to get saved by them. he thought the Catholic way of things was not going to get him into heaven. He said that you needed faith in the risen lord to get there and that good deeds alone will get you there. So Luther started the protestant reformation.Catholic AnswerMartin Luther protested the Catholic Church because the Church insisted on proclaiming the teaching of Our Blessed Lord and Savior, and Martin Luther was unable to abide with either the moral teaching of the Church or with his vows - which he had taken voluntarily after years of careful reflection. When the Church wouldn't change its teaching to accommodate Luther's lifestyle, he rewrote and edited the Bible, and started his own "church".

Why was Martin Luther in a position to make judgment in the Catholic Church?
Another answer from our community:Actually, Martin Luther, as an Augustinian Friar, doubly under vows both to his bishop, and to his Order, was in no position to pass judgment on the Body of Christ, which is what the Catholic Church is. Our Blessed Lord, Jesus Christ, guaranteed the Catholic Church until the end of the world, and set St. Peter (and his successors) over it, sending the Holy Spirit to guide it always. Any such judgment on Martin Luther's part would be presumption of the worst kind of sin.However, I am sure there are those who would say that his being a priest and a religious gave him the position to make judgment on the Catholic Church, but they would all be protestants anyway.
