More quotes by Martin Luther

Image
Isaiah calls the Church barren because her children are born without effort by the Word of faith through the Spirit of God. It is a matter of birth, not of exertion.
Martin Luther
Image
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
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
The Devil, it is true, is not exactly a doctor who has taken degrees, but he is very learned, very expert for all that. He has not been carrying on his business during thousands of years for nothing.
Martin Luther
Image
To gather with God's people in united adoration of the Father is as necessary to the Christian life as prayer.
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
He that will maintain that man's free will is able to do or work anything in spiritual cases, be they never so small, denies Christ.
Martin Luther
Image
Godly people are waiting for the Lord therefore they live, therefore they are saved, therefore they receive what has been promised.
Martin Luther
Image
I believe that the devil has destroyed many good books of the church, as, aforetime, he killed and crushed many holy persons, the memory of whom has now passed away but the Bible he was fain to leave subsisting.
Martin Luther
Image
A Christian is a perfectly free lord of all, subject to none. A Christian is a perfectly dutiful servant of all, subject of all, subject to all.
Martin Luther
Image
True humility does not know that it is humble. If it did, it would be proud from the contemplation of so fine a virtue.
Martin Luther
Image
The church that preaches the gospel in all of its fullness, except as it applies to the great social ills of the day, is failing to preach the gospel.
Martin Luther
Image
Faith is permitting ourselves to be seized by the things that we do not see.
Martin Luther
Image
God wants our conscience to be certain and sure that it is pleasing to Him. This cannot be done if the conscience is led by its own feelings, but only if it relies on the Word of God.
Martin Luther
Image
That which the sober man keeps in his breast, the drunken man lets out at the lips. Astute people, when they want to ascertain a man's true character, make him drunk.
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
Good works are the seals and proofs of faith for even as a letter must have a seal to strengthen the same, even so faith must have good works.
Martin Luther
Image
Many pass for saints on earth whose souls are in hell.
Martin Luther
Image
The best way to drive out the devil, if he will not yield to texts of Scripture, is to jeer and flout him, for he cannot bear scorn.
Martin Luther
Image
When I was abandoned by everybody, in my greatest weakness, trembling and afraid of death, when I was persecuted by this wicked world, then I often felt most surely the divine power in this name, Jesus Christ... So, by God's grace, I will live and die for that name.
Martin Luther
