More quotes by Martin Luther

Image
God is ready to give more quickly, and to give more than you ask yea, he offers his treasures if we only take them. It is truly a great shame and a severe chastisement for us Christians that God should still upbraid us for our slothfulness in prayer, and that we fail to let such a rich and excellent promise incite us to pray.
Martin Luther
Image
It is a good thing to let prayer be the first business of the morning and the last of the evening.
Martin Luther
Image
One thing, and only one thing, is necessary for Christian life, righteousness, and freedom. That one thing is the most holy Word of God, the gospel of Christ.
Martin Luther
Image
I'd rather see heaven crash from the skies than one grain of God's truth die.
Martin Luther
Image
Jesus Christ never died for our good works. They were not worth dying for. But he gave himself for our sins, according to the Scriptures.
Martin Luther
Image
The sin underneath all our sins is to trust the lie of the serpent that we cannot trust the love and grace of Christ and must take matters into our own hands
Martin Luther
Image
Let us not lose the Bible, but with diligence, in fear and invocation of God, read and preach it. While that remains and flourishes, all prospers with the state 'tis head and empress of all arts and faculties. Let but divinity fall, and I would not give a straw for the rest.
Martin Luther
Image
women and girls begin to bare themselves behind and in front, and there is nobody to punish and hold in check, and besides, God's word is mocked.
Martin Luther
Image
What shall we do with...the Jews?...their homes also should be razed and destroyed.
Martin Luther
Image
There is on earth among all dangers no more dangerous thing than a richly endowed and adroit reason...Reason must be deluded, blinded, and destroyed.
Martin Luther
Image
Where faith is not continually kept in motion and exercised, it weakens and decreases, so that it must indeed vanish and yet we do not see nor feel this weakness ourselves, except in times of need and temptation, when unbelief rages too strongly and yet for that very reason faith must have temptations in which it may battle and grow.
Martin Luther
Image
When Eve was brought unto Adam, he became filled with the Holy Spirit, and gave her the most sanctified, the most glorious of appellations. He called, her Eva--that is to say, the Mother of All. He did not style her wife, but simply mother--mother of all living creatures. In this consists the glory and the most precious ornament of woman.
Martin Luther
Image
God is a blank sheet upon which nothing is found but what you yourself have written.
Martin Luther
Image
The will of man without grace is not free, but is enslaved, and that too with its own consent.
Martin Luther
Image
In his life Christ is an example showing us how to live in his death he is a sacrifice satisfying our sins in his resurrection a conqueror in his ascension a king in his intercession a high priest.
Martin Luther
Image
Rest in the Lord wait patiently for Him. In Hebrew, Be silent in God, and let Him mould thee. Keep still, and He will mould thee to the right shape.
Martin Luther
Image
A person whodoes not regard music as a marvelous creation of God, must be a clodhopper indeed and does not deserve to be called a human being he should be permitted to hear nothing but the braying of asses and the grunting of hogs.
Martin Luther
Image
God can be found only in suffering and the cross.
Martin Luther
Image
If I am not allowed to laugh in heaven, I don't want to go there.
Martin Luther
Image
He who hears this name [God] from a Jew must inform the authorities, or else throw sow dung at him when he sees him and chase him away.
Martin Luther
