Image
If I fail to spend two hours in prayer each morning, the devil gets the victory through the day. I have so much business I cannot get on without spending three hours daily in prayer.
Martin Luther
Image
Can he who understands not God's word, understand God's works?
Martin Luther
Image
There is no justification without sanctification, no forgiveness without renewal of life, no real faith from which the fruits of new obedience do not grow.
Martin Luther
Image
It is necessary to understand that Black Power is a cry of disappointment. The Black Power slogan did not spring full grown from the head of some philosophical Zeus. It was born from the wounds of despair and disappointment. It is a cry of daily hurt and persistent pain.
Martin Luther
Image
Justice is a temporary thing that must at last come to an end but the conscience is eternal and will never die.
Martin Luther
Image
He who is well acquainted with the text of scripture, is a distinguished theologian. For a Bible passage or text is of more value than the comments of four authors.
Martin Luther
Image
A man cannot do good before he is made good.
Martin Luther
Image
In a mouse we admire God's creation and craft work. The same may be said about flies.
Martin Luther
Image
Maternity is a glorious thing, since all mankind has been conceived, born, and nourished of women. All human laws should encourage the multiplication of families.
Martin Luther
Image
For God does not want to save us by our own but by an extraneous righteousness, one that does not originate in ourselves but comes to us from beyond ourselves, which does not arise on earth but comes from heaven.
Martin Luther
Image
We must beat the Gospel into peoples' heads incessantly because it's the one thing we're prone to forget.
Martin Luther
Image
There is no gown or garment that worse becomes a woman than when she will be wise.
Martin Luther
Image
The devil is God's ape!
Martin Luther
Image
The faith towards God in Christ must be sure and steadfast, that it may solace and make glad the conscience, and put it to rest. When a man has this certainty, he has overcome the serpent but if he be doubtful of the doctrine, it is for him very dangerous to dispute with the devil.
Martin Luther
Image
Pure Christian love is not derived from the merit of the object.
Martin Luther
Image
The hair is the finest ornament women have. Of old, virgins used to wear it loose, except when they were in mourning.
Martin Luther
Image
Whoever has skill in music is of good temperament and fitted for all things. We must teach music in schools.
Martin Luther
Image
Always preach in such a way that if the people listening do not come to hate their sin, they will instead hate you
Martin Luther
Image
True faith will no more fail to produce [good works] than the sun can cease to give light.
Martin Luther
Image
A person whodoes not regard music as a marvelous creation of God, must be a clodhopper indeed and does not deserve to be called a human being he should be permitted to hear nothing but the braying of asses and the grunting of hogs.
