More quotes by Martin Luther

Image
God has surely promised His grace to the humbled: that is, to those who mourn over and despair of themselves. But a man cannot be thoroughly humbled till he realizes that his salvation is utterly beyond his own powers, counsels, efforts, will and works, and depends absolutely on the will, counsel, pleasure and work of Another -- God alone.
Martin Luther
Image
Pure Christian love is not derived from the merit of the object.
Martin Luther
Image
The bible is the cradle that holds the Christ, without him it is nothing more than wood and straw.
Martin Luther
Image
Every country must have its own devil. Welshland its own, and France its own. Our German devil will be a good wind-pipe, and must be called drinking, being so thirsty and hell-like that no guzzling of wine and beer, however large, will cool it off, and I fear that such will ever remain Germany's plague, until the day of judgment.
Martin Luther
Image
And though this world with devils filled, Should threaten to undo us, We will not fear, for God hath willed His truth to triumph through us.
Martin Luther
Image
It is God who creates, effects, and preserves all things through his almighty.
Martin Luther
Image
Reason should be destroyed in all Christians.
Martin Luther
Image
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
Image
The man who has the will to undergo all labor may win to any good.
Martin Luther
Image
One Book is enough, but a thousand books is not too many!
Martin Luther
Image
If it were art to overcome heresy with fire, the executioners would be the most learned doctors on earth.
Martin Luther
Image
Believest thou? then thou wilt speak boldly. Speakest thou boldy? then thou must suffer. Sufferest thou? then thou shalt be comforted. For faith, the confession thereof, and the cross do follow one another.
Martin Luther
Image
The authority of Scripture is greater than the comprehension of the whole of man's reason.
Martin Luther
Image
Christ is the master the Scriptures are only the servant.
Martin Luther
Image
One thing, and only one thing, is necessary for Christian life, righteousness, and freedom. That one thing is the most holy Word of God, the gospel of Christ.
Martin Luther
Image
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
Image
Therefore the blind Jews are truly stupid fools.
Martin Luther
Image
I often laugh at Satan, and there is nothing that makes him so angry as when I attack him to his face, and tell him that through God I am more than a match for him
Martin Luther
Image
He that will maintain that man's free will is able to do or work anything in spiritual cases, be they never so small, denies Christ.
Martin Luther

A happy fart never comes from a miserable ass.
