Summary/Abstract: Year 2017 marked by the 500th anniversary of Reformation would not exist without the seminal figure – the author of the unusual event in the history of the universal Church – that is considered the cause of schism in the Western Church. The event is presented in the light of the 50th anniversary of the inter-confessional ecumenical Lutheran-Catholic dialogues, among which the specific importance of the Report of the Lutheran-Roman Catholic Commission for Unity From Conflict to Communion (2013), is to be noted. The report deals with the Catholic-Lutheran commemoration of the Reformation in 2017. By taking into consideration various ecumenical dialogues, author of the paper decides to ask about the true image of dr Martin Luther and attempts to present him as a “witness of the Gospel and witness of Jesus Christ. At the end of his analysis, the author attempts to answer a question: who really was, and is today, Martin Luther.
