Similarities Between Luther And Zwingli

Martin Luther and Olrich Zwingli wrote documents that showed they were displeased on the way the Catholic Church was operating. Their complaints differed from each other but had some similarities. Martin Luther wrote the “Ninety-Five Theses” and Olrich Zwingli wrote the “Sixty-Seven Articles.” They had a meeting at Marburg and could not agree on the same beliefs, so the Protestant revolution did not have a united front. Luther had many criticisms of the Catholic Church. He made a list of complaints and tried to make the Catholic Church reform itself within the Church. He realized that the reforms were not going to made and he broke away from The Church. A major part of Luther’s criticism to the Catholic Church was the selling of indulgences.
