There are three conversions necessary (for the Christian life): the conversion of the heart, the mind, and the purse.
Martin Luther
Image
God created Adam master and lord of living creatures, but Eve spoilt all, when she persuaded him to set himself above God's will. 'Tis you women, with your tricks and artifices, that lead men into error.
Martin Luther
Image
Cujus region, ejus rligio (Whoever's reign, his religion) ... He who owns the country owns the Church, and he that makes your laws for you has the right to make your religion for you.
Martin Luther
Image
Whatever your heart clings to and confides in, that is really your God, your functional savior.
Martin Luther

Whoever does not know God hidden in suffering does not know God at all.
Martin Luther
Image
God can be found only in suffering and the cross.
Martin Luther
Image
Nothing is more beautiful in the eyes of God than a soul that loves to hear His Word.
Martin Luther
Image
Personally I declare that I owe the Pope no other obedience than that to Antichrist.
Martin Luther
Image
No man ought to lay a cross upon himself, or to adopt tribulation, as is done in popedom but if a cross or tribulation come upon him, then let him suffer it patiently, and know that it is good and profitable for him.
Martin Luther
Image
He who hears this name [God] from a Jew must inform the authorities, or else throw sow dung at him when he sees him and chase him away.
Martin Luther
Image
You have as much laughter as you have faith.
Martin Luther
Image
But the power of God cannot be so determined and measured, for it is uncircumscribed and immeasurable, beyond and above all that is or may be. On the other hand, it must be essentially present at all places, even in the tiniest tree leaf.
Martin Luther
Image
I am so busy now that if I did not spend three hours each day in prayer, I could not get through the day.
