The Ninety-five Theses is a list of propositions for an academic disputation written in 1517 by Martin Luther, professor of moral theology at the University of Wittenberg, Germany. The 95 Theses came against Indulgences.
In the Theses, Luther argued that the repentance required by Christ in order for sins to be forgiven involves inner spiritual repentance instead of just external sacramental confession.
