Have you actually read the 95 Theses? Because NONE of them addressed devotion to the Blessed Mother (though Luther did correctly call her the mother of God) or intercession of the saints. In fact, the 95 Theses never even condemned indulgences, but only their sale (which was never sanctioned by the Church) and other abuses surrounding them.
“Have you actually read the 95 Theses?”
You’re asking a Protestant who just falsely accused Catholics of “Mary worship” if she has actually read a historical document? The chances she has read it are pretty much zero.
Vlad:
Don’t go too far in your apologetics regarding evangelicals such as to make them afraid of the work of the HS in their life.
No ML did not deny Theotokos.
Yes, ML excoriated the practice of indulgence by payment
He also denied any should pray to the already dead.
That doesn’t mean that some should be “tossed-aside” in maintaining the purity of doctrine. That same purity of doctrine is what is required by our Pastors, not the flock...we are simply to believe.
