Martin Luther preached, in his own words, a doctrine of "faith alone". In other words, he believed that all you had to do was believe really strongly and you would be saved. This is in opposition to everything in the Church's history and doctrine and in opposition to The Bible - to such an extent that Martin Luther removed many books from the Bible, and added words to Romans to try and make the Bible agree with him. This is paragraph 13 from 'Let Your Sins Be Strong': A Letter From Luther to Melanchthon Letter no. 99, 1 August 1521, From the Wartburg (Segment) Translated by Erika Bullmann Flores
13."If you are a preacher of Grace, then preach a true, not a fictitious grace; if grace is true, you must bear a true and not a fictitious sin. God does not save people who are only fictitious sinners. Be a sinner and sin boldly, but believe and rejoice in Christ even more boldly. For he is victorious over sin, death, and the world. As long as we are here we have to sin. This life in not the dwelling place of righteousness but, as Peter says, we look for a new heavens and a new earth in which righteousness dwells. . . . Pray boldly-you too are a mighty sinner." (Weimar ed. vol. 2, p. 371; Letters I, "Luther's Works," American Ed., Vol 48. p. 281- 282)
Of course we all know that Our Blessed Lord and His Apostles told us to have nothing to do with sin, and this is all through the Bible, but that is Martin Luther's doctrine.
