More quotes by Martin Luther
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
To be a Christian without prayer is no more possible than to be alive without breathing.
Martin Luther
If there is anything in us, it is not our own it is a gift of God. But if it is a gift of God, then it is entirely a debt one owes to love, that is, to the law of Christ. And if it is a debt owed to love, then I must serve others with it, not myself.
Martin Luther
When the Scripture speaks, God speaks
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 may delay, but He always comes.
Martin Luther
It is a miracle how God has so long preserved His Book! How great and glorious it is to have the Word of God!
Martin Luther
Christ is no Moses, no exactor, no giver of laws, but a giver of grace, a Savior he is infinite mercy and goodness, freely and bountifully given to us.
Martin Luther
Good works do not make a good man, but a good man does good works.
Martin Luther
You should point to the whole man Jesus and say, That is God.
Martin Luther
Man is man because he is free to operate within a framework of his destiny. He is free to deliberate, to make decisions, and to choose between alternatives. He is distinguished from animals by his freedom to do evil or to do good and to walk the high road of beauty or tread the low road of ugly degeneracy.
Martin Luther
Lord, grant that anger or other bitterness does not reign over us, but that your grace, genuine kindness, loyalty, and every kind of friendliness, generosity, and gentleness may reign in us. Amen
Martin Luther
God's entire divine nature is wholly and entirely in all creatures, more deeply, more inwardly, more present than the creature is to itself.
Martin Luther
Either sin is with you, lying on your shoulders, or it is lying on Christ, the Lamb of God. Now if it is lying on your back, you are lost but if it is resting on Christ, you are free, and you will be saved. Now choose what you want.
Martin Luther
The bible is the cradle that holds the Christ, without him it is nothing more than wood and straw.
Martin Luther
I cannot choose but adhere to the word of God, which has possession of my conscience nor can I possibly, nor will I even make any recantation, since it is neither safe nor honest to act contrary to conscience! Here I stand I cannot do otherwise, so help me God! Amen.
Martin Luther
Strange, though I am saved from sin, I am not saved from sinning.
Martin Luther
It is impossible for one man both to labor day and night to get a living, and at the same time give himself to the study of sacred learning as the preaching office requires.
Martin Luther
Maternity is a glorious thing, since all mankind has been conceived, born, and nourished of women. All human laws should encourage the multiplication of families.
Martin Luther
How can a reason which hates God be called sound?
Martin Luther
