More quotes by Martin Luther

Image
What is it to serve God and to do His will? Nothing else than to show mercy to our neighbor. For it is our own neighbor who needs our service God in heaven needs it not.
Martin Luther
Image
After the devil himself, there is no worse folk than the pope and his followers.
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
God has set the type of marriage through creation. Each creature seeks its perfection in another.
Martin Luther
Image
There is on earth among all dangers, no more dangerous thing than a richly endowed and adroid reason, especially if she enters into spiritual matters which concern the soul and God. For it is more possible to teach an ass to read than to blind such a reason and lead it right for reason must be deluded, blinded, and destroyed.
Martin Luther
Image
Put thou thy trust in God In duty's path go on Fix on His word thy steadfast eye So shall thy work be done.
Martin Luther
Image
As is the business of tailors to make clothes and cobblers to make shoes, so it is the business of Christians to pray.
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
A penny saved is of more value than a penny paid out.
Martin Luther
Image
Did I not tell you earlier that a Jew is such a noble, precious jewel that God and all the angels dance when he farts?
Martin Luther
Image
The man who has the will to undergo all labor may win to any good.
Martin Luther
Image
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
Image
It seems to me that the most delightful walk of life is to be found in a household of moderate means, to live there with an obliging spouse and to be satisfied with little.
Martin Luther
Image
A preacher must be both soldier and shepherd. He must nourish, defend, and teach he must have teeth in his mouth, and be able to bite and fight.
Martin Luther
Image
If men only believe enough in Christ they can commit adultery and murder a thousand times a day without periling their salvation.
Martin Luther
Image
If there is anything in us, it is not our own it is a gift of God. But if it is a gift of God, then it is entirely a debt one owes to love, that is, to the law of Christ. And if it is a debt owed to love, then I must serve others with it, not myself.
Martin Luther
Image
The will is a beast of burden. If God mounts it, it wishes and goes as God wills if Satan mounts it, it wishes and goes as Satan wills Nor can it choose its rider... the riders contend for its possession.
Martin Luther
Image
Pure Christian love is not derived from the merit of the object.
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
Christ is no Moses, no exactor, no giver of laws, but a giver of grace, a Savior he is infinite mercy and goodness, freely and bountifully given to us.
Martin Luther
