More quotes by Martin Luther
I cannot choose but adhere to the word of God, which has possession of my conscience nor can I possibly, nor will I even make any recantation, since it is neither safe nor honest to act contrary to conscience! Here I stand I cannot do otherwise, so help me God! Amen.
Martin Luther
Whatever your heart clings to and confides in, that is really your God, your functional savior.
Martin Luther
False preachers are worse than deflowerers of virgins.
Martin Luther
All who call on God in true faith, earnestly from the heart, will certainly be heard, and will receive what they have asked and desired.
Martin Luther
Heaven and earth, all the emperors, kings, and princes of the world, could not raise a fit dwelling-place for God yet, in a weak human soul, that keeps His Word, He willingly resides.
Martin Luther
It is as if a wolf devoured a sheep and the sheep were so powerful that it transformed the wolf and turned him into a sheep. So, when we eat Christ's flesh physically and spiritually, the food is so powerful that it transforms us.
Martin Luther
The less I pray, the harder it gets the more I pray, the better it goes.
Martin Luther
Out of the mountain of despair, a stone of hope.
Martin Luther
Sacred scripture tells us that Joshua commanded the sun to stand still, and not the earth.
Martin Luther
In Switzerland, on a high mountain, not far from Lucerne, there is a lake they call Pilate's Pond, which the Devil has fixed upon as one of the chief residences of his evil spirits.
Martin Luther
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
Power without love is reckless and abusive, and love without power is sentimental and anemic.
Martin Luther
If God is to create or to preserve a creature, God must be present and must make and preserve God's creation both in its innermost and outermost aspects.
Martin Luther
Always preach in such a way that if the people listening do not come to hate their sin, they will instead hate you
Martin Luther
Grace remits sin, and peace quiets the conscience. Sin and conscience torment us, but Christ has overcome these fiends now and forever.
Martin Luther
The Holy Scriptures surpass in efficaciousness all the arts and all the sciences of the philosophers and jurists these, though good and necessary to life here below, are vain and of no effect as to what concerns the life eternal.
Martin Luther
Anyone who is to find Christ must first find the church. How could anyone know where Christ is and what faith is in him unless he knew where his believers are?
Martin Luther
The bible is the cradle that holds the Christ, without him it is nothing more than wood and straw.
Martin Luther
The works of the righteous would be mortal sins if they would not be feared as mortal sins by the righteous themselves out of pious fear of God.
Martin Luther
Nothing is more beautiful in the eyes of God than a soul that loves to hear His Word.
Martin Luther
