What was Martin Luther charged with?
The initial aim of Martin Luther, professor of biblical studies and Augustine monk, was limited to reform in the use of indulgences. In response, Prierias, Master of the Papal Palace, declared any challenge to the sale of indulgences heretical. Luther proceeded to deny the infallibility of the pope and of General Councils, for which the pope excommunicated him in 1520. However, the Elector of Saxony declined to enforce the Bull of Excommunication, which Luther publicly burnt in the university at Wittenberg. One of the forty one heresies and "pestiferous errors" of which he was accused was the opinion that "the burning of heretics is against the will of the Holy Spirit."
What are 4 differences between the Catholic church and Luther's teachings?
Roman Catholic AnswerThe Catholic Church as taught nothing but that which She has received from Her founder, Jesus Christ, and the Holy Spirit, for over twenty centuries. Martin Luther taught his own philosophy and religion in order to justify that kind of life he wanted to live. The Catholic Church teaches that man is justified by the gratuitous gift of God in baptism and that from that moment on justification is a process in which he must cooperate, by the Grace given him by God, in his own justification. This is taught all through Scripture. Martin Luther denied all of this, saying that the only thing necessary was to believe, and ignore the rest of Scripture, and that you will die and instantly go to heaven. The Catholic Church has always taught the doctrine that Our Blessed Savior taught, in that, God gives us the grace to cooperate with Him and to become perfect - as nothing imperfect can enter heaven. If we fail to complete that in this life, God, in His infinite mercy, perfects us after death, in a process called "purgatory". Also, we can help those not yet perfect through our prayers, this is because we are all part of the Mystical Body of Christ, and are all being saved together. Martin Luther denied all of this, he denied that man was capable of being perfected. He denied that man was capable of cooperating with God's grace. He viewed man as a totally worthless thing - a pile of manure covered with snow (pardon me, his words, not mine). All differences between the teachings can be reduced to: the teachings of the Catholic Church are those of God, they are divine and capable, through the might of God, in saving a person. The teachings of Martin Luther are so many figments of his sin obsessed imagination and can do nothing, as he himself taught.

What gave Martin Luther power to change the Church?
Nothing gave Martin Luther power to change the Church, the Church is the Mystical Body of Christ formed by Him on the apostle Peter (see Matthew 16:17-19) and his successors. He then send the Holy Spirit to guide it into all truth until the end of the age. Thus, the Church at its core cannot change, although externals may change, and doctrine may develop but only under the guidance of the Holy Spirit through the Holy Father, the successor of St. Peter, who is guaranteed by the Lord. Martin Luther had no such commission from God, and by his own words was taking such authority unto himself: . from the website Beggars All: Reformation and Apologetics "Martin Luther ADDED words to the Bible that were not there. When he was confronted with this sin of adding to the Bible he replied: "Because Dr. Martin Luther will have it so!" This man was one ego-maniac with delusions of popehood." . "Romans 3:28 states, "Therefore we conclude that a man is justified by faith apart from the deeds of the law" (NKJV). Martin Luther, in his German translation of the Bible, specifically added the word "allein" (English 'alone') to Romans 3:28-a word that is not in the original Greek. Martin Luther reportedly said, "You tell me what a great fuss the Papists are making because the word alone in not in the text of Paul...say right out to him: 'Dr. Martin Luther will have it so,'...I will have it so, and I order it to be so, and my will is reason enough. I know very well that the word 'alone' is not in the Latin or the Greek text" (Stoddard J. Rebuilding a Lost Faith. 1922, pp. 101-102; see also Luther M. Amic. Discussion, 1, 127). This passage strongly suggests that Martin Luther viewed his opinions, and not the actual Bible as the primary authority--a concept which this author will name prima Luther."
