No greater mischief can happen to a Christian people, than to have God's word taken from them, or falsified, so that they no longer have it pure and clear. God grant we and our descendants be not witness to such a calamity.
Martin Luther

Stubbornness should have been my middle name.
Martin Luther
Image
The dog is the most faithful of animals and would be much esteemed were it not so common. Our Lord God has made His greatest gifts the commonest.
Martin Luther
Image
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

The Bible is the cradle wherein Christ is laid.

Here I stand I can do no other.
Martin Luther

There never yet have been, nor are there now, too many good books.
Martin Luther
Image
Indeed, to spur your Baal to action, I will taunt and challenge you ... to create as much as a single frog in the name and by the power of free choice, though the heathen and ungodly magicians in Egypt were able to create many.... I will not set you the heavy task of creating lice, which they could not produce either
Martin Luther
Image
The best way to get rid of the Devil, if you cannot kill it with the words of Holy Scripture, is to rail at and mock him. Music, too, is very good music is hateful to him, and drives him far away.
Martin Luther
Image
Whoever does not know God hidden in suffering does not know God at all.
Martin Luther
Image
The works of the righteous would be mortal sins if they would not be feared as mortal sins by the righteous themselves out of pious fear of God.
Martin Luther
Image
Good works do not make a good man, but a good man does good works.
Martin Luther
Image
Nothing is easier than sinning.
Martin Luther
Image
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.

Many of the ugly pages of American history have been obscured and forgotten
Martin Luther
Image
It seems to me that the most delightful walk of life is to be found in a household of moderate means, to live there with an obliging spouse and to be satisfied with little.
Martin Luther
Image
If you want to interpret well and confidently, set Christ before you, for He is the man to whom it all applies, every bit of it.
Martin Luther
Image
I'd rather see heaven crash from the skies than one grain of God's truth die.
Martin Luther
Image
The church that preaches the gospel in all of its fullness, except as it applies to the great social ills of the day, is failing to preach the gospel.

Great thieves go Scott-free, as the Pope and his crew.
