Quote

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.

For what God gives I thank indeed What He withholds I do not need
Martin Luther
Image
The man who has the will to undergo all labor may win to any good.
Martin Luther
Image
The inner man cannot be forced to do out of his own free will, what he should do, except the grace of God change the heart and make it willing.
Martin Luther
Image
[It is] essentially wholesome and necessary, for a Christian to know, whether or not the will does any thing in those things which pertain unto Salvation. Nay, let me tell you, this is the very hinge upon which our discussion turns. It is the very heart of the subject
Martin Luther
Image
God created the world out of nothing, and so long as we are nothing, He can make something out of us.
Martin Luther
Image
We need not invite the Devil to our table he is too ready to come without being asked. The air all about us is filled with demons.
Martin Luther
Image
Let us keep to Christ, and cling to Him, and hang on Him, so that no power can remove us.
Martin Luther
Image
A unjust law, is no law at all.
Martin Luther
Image
Did I not tell you earlier that a Jew is such a noble, precious jewel that God and all the angels dance when he farts?
Martin Luther
Image
How rich a God our God is! He gives enough, but we don't notice it. He gave the whole world to Adam, but this was nothing in Adam's eyes he was concerned about one tree and had to ask why God had forbidden him to eat it.
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
Those speak foolishly who ascribe their anger or their impatience to such as offend them or to tribulation. Tribulation does not make people impatient, but proves that they are impatient. So everyone may learn from tribulation how his heart is constituted.
Martin Luther
Image
Put thou thy trust in God In duty's path go on Fix on His word thy steadfast eye So shall thy work be done.
Martin Luther
Image
Yes, I see the Church as the body of Christ. But, oh! How we have blemished and scarred that body through social neglect and through fear of being nonconformists.
Martin Luther
Image
A happy fart never comes from a miserable ass.
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
Whatever your heart clings to and confides in, that is really your God, your functional savior.
Martin Luther
Image
Who waits until circumstances completely favor his undertaking, will never accomplish anything.
Martin Luther
Image
There are two days in my calendar: This day and that Day.
Martin Luther
Image
Count it one of the highest virtues upon earth to educate faithfully the children of others, which so few, and scarcely any, do by their own.
Martin Luther
