When I am angry I can pray well and preach well.
Martin Luther
Image
Let us not lose the Bible, but with diligence, in fear and invocation of God, read and preach it. While that remains and flourishes, all prospers with the state 'tis head and empress of all arts and faculties. Let but divinity fall, and I would not give a straw for the rest.
Martin Luther

The fool will upset the whole science of astronomy.
Martin Luther
Image

Martin Luther
Image
Women should remain at home, sit still, keep house, and bear and bring up children...If a woman grows weary and, at last, dies from childbearing, it matters not. Let her die from bearing - she is there to do it.
Martin Luther
Image
Peace if possible, truth at all costs.
Martin Luther

Many pass for saints on earth whose souls are in hell.
Martin Luther
Image
I put the Scriptures above all the sayings of the fathers, angels, men and devils. Here I take my stand.
Martin Luther
Image
The God whom we worship is not a weak and incompetent God. He is able to beat back gigantic waves of opposition and to bring low prodigious mountains of evil. The ringing testimony of the Christian faith is that God is able.
Martin Luther
Image
I had rather be in hell with Christ, than be in heaven without him.
Martin Luther
Image
As for the demented, I hold it certain that all beings deprived of reason are thus afflicted only by the Devil.
Martin Luther

It is a miracle how God has so long preserved His Book! How great and glorious it is to have the Word of God!
