The Bible is the proper book for men. There the truth is distinguished from error far more clearly than anywhere else, and one finds something new in it every day. For twenty-eight years, since I became a doctor, I have now constantly read and preached the Bible and yet I have not exhausted it but find something new in it every day.

Sacred scripture tells us that Joshua commanded the sun to stand still, and not the earth.
Martin Luther

The Devil...clutched hold of the miserable young man...and flew off with him through the ceiling, since which time nothing has been heard of him.
Martin Luther

The inner man cannot be forced to do out of his own free will, what he should do, except the grace of God change the heart and make it willing.

When the gospel flourishes in the church, everything flourishes with it.
Martin Luther

Now the Church is not wood and stone, but the company of believing people one must hold to them, and see how they believe, live and teach.
Martin Luther

It is God who creates, effects, and preserves all things through his almighty.

The quest for glory can never be satisfied, it must be extinguished.
