More quotes by Martin Luther
The kingdom of God does not consist in talk, but in power, that is, in works and practice. God loves the 'doers of the word' in faith and love, and not the 'mere hearers,' who, like parrots, have learned to utter certain expressions with readiness.
Martin Luther
Those who lapse from the Gospel to the Law are no better off than those who lapse from grace to idolatry.
Martin Luther
True faith will no more fail to produce [good works] than the sun can cease to give light.
Martin Luther
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
The Devil, too, sometimes steals human children it is not infrequent for him to carry away infants within the first six weeks after birth, and to substitute in their place imps.
Martin Luther
The Holy Spirit has a way of His own to say much in few words.
Martin Luther
If any earthly institution or custom conflicts with God's will, it is your Christian duty to oppose it. You must never allow the transitory, evanescent demands of man-made institutions to take precedence over the eternal demands of the Almighty God.
Martin Luther
It is not the imitation that makes sons it is sonship that makes imitators.
Martin Luther
Faith is a free surrenderand a joyous wager on the unseen, unknown, untested goodness of God.
Martin Luther
The law works fear and wrath grace works hope and mercy.
Martin Luther
A unjust law, is no law at all.
Martin Luther
At Sussen, the Devil carried off, last Good Friday, three grooms who had devoted themselves to him.
Martin Luther
After the devil himself, there is no worse folk than the pope and his followers.
Martin Luther
I am more afraid of my own heart than of the pope and all his cardinals. I have within me the great pope, Self.
Martin Luther
No man ought to lay a cross upon himself, or to adopt tribulation, as is done in popedom but if a cross or tribulation come upon him, then let him suffer it patiently, and know that it is good and profitable for him.
Martin Luther
The heart overflows with gladness, and leaps and dances for the joy it has found in God. In this experience the Holy Spirit is active, and has taught us in the flash of a moment the deep secret of joy. You will have as much joy and laughter in life as you have faith in God.
Martin Luther
The Bible is the book that makes fools of the wise of this world it is only understood by the plain and simple hearted.
Martin Luther
Peace if possible, truth at all costs.
Martin Luther
None can believe how powerful prayer is, and what it is able to effect, but those who have learned it by experience.
Martin Luther
The reproduction of mankind is a great marvel and mystery. Had God consulted me in the matter, I should have advised him to continue the generation of the species by fashioning them out of clay.
Martin Luther
