Martin Luther King Jr. was known to have some proficiency in Spanish and was able to deliver parts of his speeches in the language. However, he was not fluent in any language other than English. King primarily focused on his work as a civil rights leader and did not have extensive language studies beyond his native tongue.
Luther lived incognito at the Wartburg; he called himself Junker Jörg (Knight George) and "grew his hair and a beard." While he was hiding at Wartburg he supposedly translated the New Testament into German. The Bible that he was translating from was the Latin Vulgate.
—Salvation is gained by faith alone —Jesus is the head of the church —The Bible is the sole source of religious truth —Only God can forgive sins —The Bible should be in English (not Latin)
Because of the printing press people were literate and well-educated. They could understand Luther's concepts and ideas better. They could also read the bible, which could help Luther prove the church wrong. The printing press helped make the bible more readily available to people.
Unless there are other people in Latin America also named Martin Luther and John Calvin, then No, the German man Martin Luther and the French man John (Jean) Calvin were not Latin American revolutionary leaders. Both of them were leaders in the Protestant Reformation in Europe in the 16th century.
Martin Luther did not translate from the Latin Vulgate translation.
This was because Henry viii wanted to respond to Martin Luther's complaint of church services in latin and people not understanding them
Martin Luther changed his name in 1505 when he became a monk. Originally named Martin Luder, he adopted the Latin form "Luther" as he sought to reform the Catholic Church. This name change marked the beginning of his influential role in the Protestant Reformation.

Martin Luther was born as Martin Luder in 1483, but his name was changed when he became a monk. The Latinization of names was common in academia and religious contexts; thus, "Luder" was modified to "Luther." This change likely facilitated his scholarly work and correspondence within the Church and the academic community, as Latin was the lingua franca of the time. Luther later became well-known for his role in the Protestant Reformation.
Most people would consider that Martin Luther led the protestant churches. And that is mainly through the publication of parts of the bible written in German. He was able to do this because of the printing press. Before that, the bible was written in Latin and most of the people couldn't read it. Luther's publications also inspired King James to have it written in English, hence the King James bible.With copies of the bible written in a language that people could read themselves, and published with the aid of the printing press, the Vatican no longer had the absolute control over the masses with its Latin version which only a few copies were available. Martin Luther and King James are initially the ones that led the Protestant churches.
