More quotes by Martin Luther

Image
To be a Christian without prayer is no more possible than to be alive without breathing.
Martin Luther
Image
The Holy Scriptures surpass in efficaciousness all the arts and all the sciences of the philosophers and jurists these, though good and necessary to life here below, are vain and of no effect as to what concerns the life eternal.
Martin Luther
Image
A Christian is free and independent in every respect, a bond servant to none. A Christian is a dutiful servant in every respect, owing a duty to everyone.
Martin Luther
Image
Two devils rose from the water, and flew off through the air, crying, 'Oh, oh, oh!' and turning one over another, in sportive mockery.
Martin Luther
Image
You should point to the whole man Jesus and say, That is God.
Martin Luther
Image
Take a look at your own heart, and you will soon find out what has stuck to it and where your treasure is. It is easy to determine whether hearing the Word of God, living according to it, and achieving such a life gives you as much enjoyment and calls forth as much diligence from you as does accumulating and saving money and property.
Martin Luther
Image
Father and Mother are apostles, bishops and priests to their children, for it is they who make them acquainted with the gospel.
Martin Luther
Image
Faith is a free surrenderand a joyous wager on the unseen, unknown, untested goodness of God.
Martin Luther
Image
The state of matrimony is the chief in the world after religion but people shun it because of its inconveniences, like one who, running out of the rain, falls into the river.
Martin Luther
Image
Whoever has skill in music is of good temperament and fitted for all things. We must teach music in schools.
Martin Luther
Image
The Devil, too, sometimes steals human children it is not infrequent for him to carry away infants within the first six weeks after birth, and to substitute in their place imps.
Martin Luther
Image
This is the good and happy news, that Christ has paid for our sin, and through His suffering has redeemed us from eternal death. It is His kingdom and His ministry, to preach the Gospel to the poor that is His purpose. For to the great and holy He cannot come. They do not wish to be counted sinners, and therefore do not need His Gospel.
Martin Luther
Image
Nothing is more sweet than harmony in marriage, and nothing more distressing than dissension.
Martin Luther
Image
Faith cannot be inherited or gained by being baptized into a Church. Faith is a matter between the individual and God.
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
It is the duty of a prudent minister of God to hold his ministry in honor and to see to it that it is respected by those who are in his charge. Moreoever, it is the duty of a faithful minister not to exceed his powers and not to abuse his office in pride, but, rather, to administer it for the benefit of his subjects.
Martin Luther
Image
I was increasingly compelled to see the war as an enemy of the poor and to attack it as such.
Martin Luther
Image
Count it one of the highest virtues upon earth to educate faithfully the children of others, which so few, and scarcely any, do by their own.
Martin Luther
Image
Christ designed that the day of his coming should be hid from us, that being in suspense, we might be as it were upon the watch.
Martin Luther
Image
When some say that good works are forbidden when we preach faith alone, it is as if I said to a sick man: If you had health, you would have the use of all your limbs but without health, the works of all your limbs are nothing and he wanted to infer that I had forbidden the works of all his limbs.
Martin Luther
