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

God may delay, but He always comes.
Martin Luther

The winds are nothing else but good or bad spirits. Hark! how the Devil is puffing and blowing.
Martin Luther

The Holy Spirit is no Skeptic, & the things He has written in our hearts are not doubts or opinions, but assertions - surer & more certain than sense & life itself.
Martin Luther

In a delightful garden, sowing, planting or digging are not hardship but are done with a zeal and a certain pleasure.
Martin Luther
Image
Sinners are attractive because they are loved they are not loved because they are attractive.
Martin Luther
Image
Isaiah calls the Church barren because her children are born without effort by the Word of faith through the Spirit of God. It is a matter of birth, not of exertion.
Martin Luther
Image
Christian life consists of faith and charity
Martin Luther
Image
The law of God cannot be fulfilled by external obedience.
Martin Luther

I should have no compassion on these witches I should burn them all.
Martin Luther

The multitude of books is a great evil. There is no limit to this fever for writing every one must be an author some out of vanity, to acquire celebrity and raise up a name, others for the sake of mere gain.
Martin Luther
Image
Feelings come, and feelings go, and feelings are deceiving. My warrant is the Word of God, naught else is worth believing.
