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
Music is one of the fairest and most glorious gifts of God.
Martin Luther
Image
Some will object that the Law is divine and holy. Let it be divine and holy. The Law has no right to tell me that I must be justified by it.
Martin Luther
Image
Your thoughts of God are too human
Martin Luther
Image
In the bonds of Death He lay Who for our offence was slain But the Lord is risen to-day, Christ hath brought us life again, Wherefore let us all rejoice, Singing loud, with cheerful voice, Hallelujah!
Martin Luther

Count it one of the highest virtues upon earth to educate faithfully the children of others, which so few, and scarcely any, do by their own.
Martin Luther
Image
I maintain that some Jew wrote it who probably heard about Christian people but never encountered any.
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
Image
I did nothing. The Word did it all.
Martin Luther
Image
When God's righteousness is mentioned in the gospel, it is God's action of declaring righteous the unrighteous sinner who has faith in Jesus Christ. The righteousness by which a person is justified (declared righteous) is not his own but that of another, Christ.
Martin Luther
Image
I know not the way God leads me, but well do I know my Guide.
Martin Luther
Image
Now the Church is not wood and stone, but the company of believing people one must hold to them, and see how they believe, live and teach.
Martin Luther
Image
No man should be alone when he opposes Satan. The Church and the ministry of the Word were instituted for this purpose, that hands may be joined together and one may help another.
Martin Luther
Image
God does not love sinners because they are attractive sinners are attractive to God because he loves them.
Martin Luther
Image
I know that a Christian should be humble, but against the Pope I am going to be proud and say to him: You, Pope, I will not have you for my boss, for I am sure that my doctrine is divine.
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
Image
Grace was not given to heal the spiritually sick but to decorate spiritual heroes!
Martin Luther
Image
A woman has no control over herself.
Martin Luther
Image
You have as much laughter as you have faith.

We should die relying on grace alone
