Actually he got kicked out of the Catholic church, but still he wasn't

As far as I can say, Luther remained a true believer of the Catholic
faith for all of his life, even after excommunication.

 Of course not, he became the first Lutheran,

Well, ok, Luther was 'Lutheran' from birth.
But at that time there was no such church called 'Lutherans' to which Luther himself could possibly convert.
As far as this is known, he remained a true believer in what was Christianity in that era.
He actually didn't want to leave the catholic church, but wanted to reform that church.
Actually he did just that, but the Pope didn't like his reforms. Therefore Luther got kicked out of the Catholic church.
But that didn't change his believes or made him a protestant.
