More quotes by Martin Luther
If I fail to spend two hours in prayer each morning, the devil gets the victory through the day. I have so much business I cannot get on without spending three hours daily in prayer.
Martin Luther
A Christian has no need of any law in order to be saved, since through faith we are free from every law. Thus all the acts of a Christian are done spontaneously, out of a sense of pure liberty.
Martin Luther
Power without love is reckless and abusive, and love without power is sentimental and anemic.
Martin Luther
If there is anything in us, it is not our own it is a gift of God. But if it is a gift of God, then it is entirely a debt one owes to love, that is, to the law of Christ. And if it is a debt owed to love, then I must serve others with it, not myself.
Martin Luther
Our bodies are always exposed to Satan. The maladies I suffer are not natural, but Devil's spells.
Martin Luther
This is true faith, a living confidence in the goodness of God.
Martin Luther
The body they may kill: God’s truth abideth still, His Kingdom is forever.
Martin Luther
And I'll tell you, I've seen the lightning flash. I've heard the thunder roll. I felt sin-breakers dashing, trying to conquer my soul. But I heard the voice of Jesus saying still to fight on. He promised never to leave me, never to leave me alone. No, never alone. He promised never to leave me, never to leave me alone.
Martin Luther
There is no gown or garment that worse becomes a woman than when she will be wise.
Martin Luther
A simple man with Scripture has more authority than the Pope or a council.
Martin Luther
Every man must decide whether he will walk in the creative light of altruism or the darkness of destructive selfishness. This is the judgment. Life's persistent and most urgent question is 'What are you doing for others?'
Martin Luther
At night always carry in your heart something from Holy Scriptures to bed with you, meditate upon it like a ruminant animal, and go softly to sleep but this must not be too much, rather a little that may be well pondered and understood, that you may find a remnant of it in your mind when you rise in the morning.
Martin Luther
We know, on the authority of Moses, that longer than six thousand years the world did not exist.
Martin Luther
I am afraid that the schools will prove the very gates of hell, unless they diligently labor in explaining the Holy Scriptures and engraving them in the heart of the youth.
Martin Luther
When God's righteousness is mentioned in the gospel, it is God's action of declaring righteous the unrighteous sinner who has faith in Jesus Christ. The righteousness by which a person is justified (declared righteous) is not his own but that of another, Christ.
Martin Luther
The best way to drive out the devil, if he will not yield to texts of Scripture, is to jeer and flout him, for he cannot bear scorn.
Martin Luther
We know that death never skips or spares anybody and that no one ever returns. And yet we go on like the blind, who see as little at midday as in the pitch-dark night. We do not take these examples to heart we do not realize that today or tomorrow our turn will come.
Martin Luther
[The Psalms are] a Little Bible, wherein everything contained in the entire Bible is beautifully and briefly comprehended.
Martin Luther
Prayer is a very precious medicine, one that certainly helps and never fails, if you will only use it.
Martin Luther
Either sin is with you, lying on your shoulders, or it is lying on Christ, the Lamb of God. Now if it is lying on your back, you are lost but if it is resting on Christ, you are free, and you will be saved. Now choose what you want.
Martin Luther
