Men are not made religious by performing certain actions which are externally good, but they must first have righteous principles, and then they will not fail to perform virtuous actions.

More quotes by Martin Luther
May the Lord fill you with His blessings and with hatred of the Pope.
Martin Luther
All which happens through the whole world happens through hope. No husbandman would sow a grain of corn if he did not hope it would spring up and bring forth the ear how much more we are helped on by hope in the eternal life.
Martin Luther
That which the sober man keeps in his breast, the drunken man lets out at the lips. Astute people, when they want to ascertain a man's true character, make him drunk.
Martin Luther
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
At night always carry in your heart something from Holy Scriptures to bed with you, meditate upon it like a ruminant animal, and go softly to sleep but this must not be too much, rather a little that may be well pondered and understood, that you may find a remnant of it in your mind when you rise in the morning.
Martin Luther
The Mass is the greatest blasphemy of God, and the highest idolatry upon earth, an abomination the like of which has never been in Christendom since the time of the Apostles.
Martin Luther
Prayer is a very precious medicine, one that certainly helps and never fails, if you will only use it.
Martin Luther
Whatever your heart clings to and confides in, that is really your God, your functional savior.
Martin Luther
The Clergy is the greatest hindrance to faith.
Martin Luther
My heart, which is so full to overflowing, has often been solaced and refreshed by music when sick and weary.
Martin Luther
I refuse to accept the idea that man is mere flotsam and jetsam in the river of life, unable to influence the unfolding events which surround him. I refuse to accept the view that mankind is so tragically bound to the starless midnight of racism and war that the bright daybreak of peace and brotherhood can never become a reality.
Martin Luther
It is God who creates, effects, and preserves all things through his almighty.
Martin Luther
Cannons and fire-arms are cruel and damnable machines I believe them to have been the direct suggestion of the Devil. If Adam had seen in a vision the horrible instruments his children were to invent, he would have died of grief.
Martin Luther
Whatever you love most, that is your god.
Martin Luther
We may search long to find where God is, but we shall find Him in those who keep the words of Christ. For the Lord Christ saith, If any man love me, he will keep my words and we will make our abode with him.
Martin Luther
Your thoughts of God are too human
Martin Luther
No man should be alone when he opposes Satan. The Church and the ministry of the Word were instituted for this purpose, that hands may be joined together and one may help another.
Martin Luther
I cannot forbid a person to marry several wives, for it does not contradict Scripture.
Martin Luther
Every book is a great action and every great action is a book!
Martin Luther
In our sad condition our only consolation is the expectancy of another life. Here below all is incomprehensible.
Martin Luther
