More quotes by Martin Luther
I would rather obey than work miracles.
Martin Luther
The human heart is like a millstone in a mill: when you put wheat under it, it turns and grinds and bruises the wheat to flour if you put no wheat, it still grinds on, but then 'tis itself it grinds and wears away.
Martin Luther
When the Scripture speaks, God speaks
Martin Luther
The Bible is the cradle wherein Christ is laid.
Martin Luther
I refuse to accept the idea that man is mere flotsam and jetsam in the river of life, unable to influence the unfolding events which surround him. I refuse to accept the view that mankind is so tragically bound to the starless midnight of racism and war that the bright daybreak of peace and brotherhood can never become a reality.
Martin Luther
It is not I that smite, stab, and slay, but God and my prince, for my hand and my body are now their servants.
Martin Luther
Is it not wonderful news to believe that salvation lies outside ourselves?
Martin Luther
Christ ought to be preached with this goal in mind--that we might be moved to faith in him so that he is not just a distant historical figure but actually Christ for you and me.
Martin Luther
The truth is mightier than eloquence, the Spirit greater than genius, faith more than education.
Martin Luther
Justice is a temporary thing that must at last come to an end but the conscience is eternal and will never die.
Martin Luther
God writes the Gospel not in the Bible alone, but also on trees, and in the flowers and clouds and stars.
Martin Luther
He who is well acquainted with the text of scripture, is a distinguished theologian. For a Bible passage or text is of more value than the comments of four authors.
Martin Luther
Whatever we make the most of is our God.
Martin Luther
Nothing is more beautiful in the eyes of God than a soul that loves to hear His Word.
Martin Luther
I cannot forbid a person to marry several wives, for it does not contradict Scripture.
Martin Luther
God created Adam lord of all living creatures, but Eve spoiled it all.
Martin Luther
The God whom we worship is not a weak and incompetent God. He is able to beat back gigantic waves of opposition and to bring low prodigious mountains of evil. The ringing testimony of the Christian faith is that God is able.
Martin Luther
The confidence that God is mindful of the individual is of tremendous value in dealing with the disease of fear, for it gives us a sense of worth, of belonging, and of at homeness in the universe.
Martin Luther
The two chief things are faith and love. Faith receives the good love gives the good. Faith offers us God as our own love gives us to our neighbor as his own.
Martin Luther
This is the reason why our Theology is certain: because it seizes us from ourselves and places us outside ourselves.
Martin Luther
