More quotes by Martin Luther
The slender capacity of man's heart cannot comprehend the unfathomable depth and burning zeal of God's love toward us.
Martin Luther
The certain mark by which a Christian community can be recognized is the preaching of the gospel in its purity.
Martin Luther
It is impossible to separate works from faith- yea, just as impossible as to separate burning and shining from fire.
Martin Luther
Someone asked Luther, Do you feel that you've been forgiven? He answered, No, but I'm as sure As there's a God in Heaven!
Martin Luther
He who loses sight of the word of God, falls into despair the voice of heaven no longer sustains him he follows only the disorderly tendency of his heart.
Martin Luther
One learns more of Christ in being married and rearing children than in several lifetimes spent in study in a monastery.
Martin Luther
what is sought by means of free choice is to make room for merits.
Martin Luther
Be a sinner, and let your sins be strong, but let your trust in Christ be stronger, and rejoice in Christ who is the victor over sin, death, and the world.
Martin Luther
Lord God, I thank Thee that Thou hast been pleased to make me a poor and indigent man upon earth. I have neither house nor land nor money, to leave behind me. Thou hast given me wife and children, whom I now restore to Thee. Lord, nourish, teach, and preserve them as Thou hast me.
Martin Luther
Scripture is the manger in which we find the Christ child.
Martin Luther
You may as well quit reading and hearing the Word of God, and give it to the devil, if you do not desire to live according to it.
Martin Luther
We should consider the histories of Christ three manner of ways first, as a history of acts or legends second, as a gift or a present thirdly, as an example, which we should believe and follow.
Martin Luther
God scorns and mocks the devil, in setting under his very nose a poor, weak, human creature, mere dust and ashes, yet endowed with the firstfruits of the Spirit, against whom the devil can do nothing.
Martin Luther
Music is a discipline, and a mistress of order and good manners, she makes the people milder and gentler, more moral and more reasonable.
Martin Luther
Love is an image of God, and not a lifeless image, but the living essence of the divine nature which beams full of all goodness.
Martin Luther
The Bible is the cradle wherein Christ is laid.
Martin Luther
No one can believe how powerful prayer is and what it can effect, except those who have learned it by experience. Whenever I have prayed earnestly, I have been heard and have obtained more than I prayed for. God sometimes delays, but He always comes.
Martin Luther
Faith is the yes of the heart.
Martin Luther
Sacred scripture tells us that Joshua commanded the sun to stand still, and not the earth.
Martin Luther
God foreknows nothing by contingency, but that He foresees, purposes, and does all things according to His immutable, eternal, and infallible will. By this thunderbolt, Free-will is thrown prostrate, and utterly dashed to pieces.
Martin Luther
