More quotes by Martin Luther
While we contemplate in all creatures, as in a mirror, those immense riches of His wisdom, justice, goodness and power, we should not meerly run them over cursorily, and, so to speak, with a fleeting glance, but we should ponder them at length, turn them over in our mind seriously and faithfully and recollect them repeatedly.
Martin Luther
A Christian has no need of any law in order to be saved, since through faith we are free from every law. Thus all the acts of a Christian are done spontaneously, out of a sense of pure liberty.
Martin Luther
It is impossible for a man to be a Christian without having Christ and if he has Christ he has at the same time all that is in Christ.
Martin Luther
Here is the truly Christian life, here is faith really working by love, when a man applies himself with joy and love to the works of that freest servitude in which he serves others voluntarily and for nought, himself abundantly satisfied in the fulness and riches of his own faith.
Martin Luther
God does not love sinners because they are attractive sinners are attractive to God because he loves them.
Martin Luther
Cujus region, ejus rligio (Whoever's reign, his religion) ... He who owns the country owns the Church, and he that makes your laws for you has the right to make your religion for you.
Martin Luther
This doctrine (justification) is the head and the cornerstone. It alone begets, nourishes, builds, preserves, and defends the church of God and without it the church of God cannot exist for one hour.
Martin Luther
Cannons and fire-arms are cruel and damnable machines I believe them to have been the direct suggestion of the Devil. If Adam had seen in a vision the horrible instruments his children were to invent, he would have died of grief.
Martin Luther
When I was a child there were many witches, and they bewitched both cattle and men, especially children.
Martin Luther
What shall we do with...the Jews?...I advise that safe-conduct on the highways be abolished completely for the Jews.
Martin Luther
I feel much freer now that I am certain the pope is the Antichrist.
Martin Luther
The most damnable and pernicious heresy that has ever plagued the mind of man was the idea that somehow he could make himself good enough to deserve to live with an all-holy God.
Martin Luther
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
It is God who creates, effects, and preserves all things through his almighty.
Martin Luther
When the Scripture speaks, God speaks
Martin Luther
To be a Christian without prayer is no more possible than to be alive without breathing.
Martin Luther
For that purpose Christ instituted holy baptism, thereby to clothe you with his righteousness. It is tantamount to his saying, My righteousness shall be your righteousness my innocence, your innocence. Your sins indeed are great, but by baptism I bestow on you my righteousness I strip death from you and clothe you with my life.
Martin Luther
I must remain a child and pupil of the Catechism, and am glad so to remain.
Martin Luther
The state of matrimony is the chief in the world after religion but people shun it because of its inconveniences, like one who, running out of the rain, falls into the river.
Martin Luther
Human reason is like a drunken man on horseback set it up on one side, and it tumbles over on the other
