Stubbornness should have been my middle name.

What shall we do with...the Jews?...their homes also should be razed and destroyed.
Martin Luther

A Christian is free and independent in every respect, a bond servant to none. A Christian is a dutiful servant in every respect, owing a duty to everyone.

Our bodies are always exposed to Satan. The maladies I suffer are not natural, but Devil's spells.
Martin Luther

All we who believe on Christ are kings and priests in Christ.
Martin Luther

Cujus region, ejus rligio (Whoever's reign, his religion) ... He who owns the country owns the Church, and he that makes your laws for you has the right to make your religion for you.
Martin Luther

Grace was not given to heal the spiritually sick but to decorate spiritual heroes!
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
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.
