More quotes by Martin Luther
If we Christians would join the Wise Men, we must close our eyes to all that glitters before the world and look rather on the despised and foolish things, help the poor, comfort the despised, and aid the neighbor in his need.
Martin Luther
The law of God cannot be fulfilled by external obedience.
Martin Luther
It is not I that smite, stab, and slay, but God and my prince, for my hand and my body are now their servants.
Martin Luther
Before every great opportunity God gave me a great trial.
Martin Luther
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
Heretics cannot themselves appear good unless they depict the Church as evil, false, and mendacious. They alone wish to be esteemed as the good, but the Church must be made to appear evil in every respect.
Martin Luther
We know, on the authority of Moses, that longer than six thousand years the world did not exist.
Martin Luther
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
Teaching is of more importance than urging.
Martin Luther
A happy fart never comes from a miserable ass.
Martin Luther
In the midst of the affliction He counsels, strengthens confirms, nourishes, and favors us.... More over, when we have repented, He instantly remits the sins as well as the punishments. In the same manner parents ought to handle their children.
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
God's love does not love that which is worthy of being loved, but it creates that which is worthy of being loved.
Martin Luther
Christian life consists of faith and charity
Martin Luther
Reason is the greatest enemy that faith has: it never comes to the aid of spiritual things.
Martin Luther
Faith, like light, should always be simple and unbending while love, like warmth, should beam forth on every side, and bend to every necessity of our brethren.
Martin Luther
What harm would it do, if a man told a good strong lie for the sake of the good.
Martin Luther
Whoever sees Christ as a mirror of the Father's heart, actually walks through the world with new eyes.
Martin Luther
I only ask in all kindness that the man who wishes at this time to have my books will by no means let them be a hindrance to his own study of the Scriptures, but read them as I read the orders and the ordures of the pope and the books of the sophists.
Martin Luther
A mighty fortress is our God, a bulwark never failing: our helper He amid the flood of mortal ills prevailing.
Martin Luther
