One of the longstanding complaints against the Catholic Church, and one that Martin Luther took great exception to, was the practice of Catholic authorities selling [BLANK-1]. By the Late Middle Ages, Catholic priests, bishops, cardinals, and even popes took to selling these. They took many forms in reality, but they are best remembered as “golden tickets to heaven.” Believers could purchase these from church authorities and guarantee a spot in heaven for themselves or a loved one; they could even pay for a loved one who had already passed to get out of Purgatory with their purchase. Luther would argue that there was no scriptural basis for this practice and that it actually ran counter to the teachings of Jesus when he published his 95 Theses.
