If I am not allowed to laugh in heaven, I don't want to go there.
Martin Luther
Image
In the bonds of Death He lay Who for our offence was slain But the Lord is risen to-day, Christ hath brought us life again, Wherefore let us all rejoice, Singing loud, with cheerful voice, Hallelujah!
Martin Luther
Image
Also when it is a case of only upholding some spiritual tenet, such as infant baptism, original sin, and unnecessary separation, then . . . we conclude that . . . the stubborn sectaries must be put to death.
Martin Luther
Image
The slender capacity of man's heart cannot comprehend the unfathomable depth and burning zeal of God's love toward us.
Martin Luther
Image
I believe that the devil has destroyed many good books of the church, as, aforetime, he killed and crushed many holy persons, the memory of whom has now passed away but the Bible he was fain to leave subsisting.
Martin Luther
Image
I am more afraid of my own heart than of the pope and all his cardinals. I have within me the great pope, Self.
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
Everything is from God himself, both commandment and fulfillment. He alone commands he alone fulfills.
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
What harm would it do, if a man told a good strong lie for the sake of the good.
Martin Luther
Image
So tenaciously should we cling to the world revealed by the Gospel, that were I to see all the Angels of Heaven coming down to me to tell me something different, not only would I not be tempted to doubt a single syllable, but I would shut my eyes and stop my ears, for they would not deserve to be either seen or heard.
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
I cannot and will not recant anything, for to go against conscience is neither right nor safe. Here I stand, I can do no other, so help me God. Amen.
Martin Luther
Image
We may search long to find where God is, but we shall find Him in those who keep the words of Christ. For the Lord Christ saith, If any man love me, he will keep my words and we will make our abode with him.
Martin Luther
Image
An earthly kingdom cannot exist without inequality of persons. Some must be free, some serfs, some rulers, some subjects.
Martin Luther
Image
Pure Christian love is not derived from the merit of the object.
Martin Luther
Image
You should point to the whole man Jesus and say, That is God.
Martin Luther
Image
You should not believe your conscience and your feelings more than the word which the Lord who receives sinners preaches to you.
Martin Luther
Image
The gospel cannot be preached and heard enough, for it cannot be grasped well enough.
Martin Luther
Image
The devil won't stay where there is music.
Martin Luther
