God's mark is on everything that obeys Him.
Martin Luther

My temptations have been my Masters of Divinity.
Martin Luther

I have undertaken to translate the Bible into German. This was good for me otherwise I might have died in the mistaken notion that I was a learned fellow.

If a man serves not God only, then surely he serves the devil.
Martin Luther
Image
Music is one of the fairest and most glorious gifts of God.
Martin Luther
Image
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.
Martin Luther
Image
Those who love music are gentle and honest in their tempers. I always loved music, and would not, for a great matter, be without the little skill which I possess in the art.
Martin Luther
Image
Though in midst of life we be Snares of death surround us.
Martin Luther
Image
Without images we can neither think nor understand anything.
Martin Luther
Image
If there is anything in us, it is not our own it is a gift of God. But if it is a gift of God, then it is entirely a debt one owes to love, that is, to the law of Christ. And if it is a debt owed to love, then I must serve others with it, not myself.
Martin Luther
Image
I only ask in all kindness that the man who wishes at this time to have my books will by no means let them be a hindrance to his own study of the Scriptures, but read them as I read the orders and the ordures of the pope and the books of the sophists.
Martin Luther
Image
Reason is the greatest enemy that faith has: it never comes to the aid of spiritual things.
Martin Luther
Image
He [Christ] died for me. He made His righteousness mine and made my sin His own and if He made my sin His own, then I do not have it, and I am free.
Martin Luther
Image
At Poltersberg, there is a lake similarly cursed. If you throw a stone into it, a dreadful storm immediately arises, and the whole neighboring district quakes to its centre. 'Tis the devils kept prisoner there.
Martin Luther
Image
women and girls begin to bare themselves behind and in front, and there is nobody to punish and hold in check, and besides, God's word is mocked.
Martin Luther
Image
I maintain that some Jew wrote it who probably heard about Christian people but never encountered any.
Martin Luther
Image
Can he who understands not God's word, understand God's works?
Martin Luther
Image
The fewer the words, the better the prayer.
Martin Luther
Image
God is not a God of sadness, death, etc., but the devil is. Christ is a God of joy, and so the Scriptures often say that we should rejoice ... A Christian should and must be a cheerful person.
Martin Luther
