More quotes by Martin Luther

Image
The winds are nothing else but good or bad spirits. Hark! how the Devil is puffing and blowing.
Martin Luther
Image
For who in fact seeks the salvation of souls through indulgences, and not instead money for his coffers? This is evident from the way indulgences are preached . For the commissioners and preachers do nothing but extol indulgences and incite.
Martin Luther
Image
In Switzerland, on a high mountain, not far from Lucerne, there is a lake they call Pilate's Pond, which the Devil has fixed upon as one of the chief residences of his evil spirits.
Martin Luther
Image
As long as there is poverty in this world, no man can be totally rich even if he has a billion dollars.
Martin Luther
Image
God's entire divine nature is wholly and entirely in all creatures, more deeply, more inwardly, more present than the creature is to itself.
Martin Luther
Image
If you want to interpret well and confidently, set Christ before you, for He is the man to whom it all applies, every bit of it.
Martin Luther
Image
Anyone who is to find Christ must first find the church. How could anyone know where Christ is and what faith is in him unless he knew where his believers are?
Martin Luther
Image
I am bound by the texts of the Bible, my conscience is captive to the Word of God, I neither can nor will recant anything, since it is neither right nor safe to act against my conscience.
Martin Luther
Image
Prayer is a very precious medicine, one that certainly helps and never fails, if you will only use it.
Martin Luther
Image
Pure Christian love is not derived from the merit of the object.
Martin Luther
Image
One learns more of Christ in being married and rearing children than in several lifetimes spent in study in a monastery.
Martin Luther
Image
How rich a God our God is! He gives enough, but we don't notice it. He gave the whole world to Adam, but this was nothing in Adam's eyes he was concerned about one tree and had to ask why God had forbidden him to eat it.
Martin Luther
Image
God is not hostile to sinners, but only to unbelievers.
Martin Luther
Image
The dog is the most faithful of animals and would be much esteemed were it not so common. Our Lord God has made His greatest gifts the commonest.
Martin Luther
Image
All which happens through the whole world happens through hope. No husbandman would sow a grain of corn if he did not hope it would spring up and bring forth the ear how much more we are helped on by hope in the eternal life.
Martin Luther
Image
Pray like it all depends on God, then when you are done, go work like it all depends on you.
Martin Luther
Image
Nothing good ever comes of violence.
Martin Luther
Image
The heart overflows with gladness, and leaps and dances for the joy it has found in God. In this experience the Holy Spirit is active, and has taught us in the flash of a moment the deep secret of joy. You will have as much joy and laughter in life as you have faith in God.
Martin Luther
Image
Blessed is the man that hath not walked in the way of the Sacramentarians, nor sat in the seat of the Zwinglians, nor followed the Council of the Zurichers.
Martin Luther
Image
There is on earth among all dangers, no more dangerous thing than a richly endowed and adroid reason, especially if she enters into spiritual matters which concern the soul and God. For it is more possible to teach an ass to read than to blind such a reason and lead it right for reason must be deluded, blinded, and destroyed.
