More quotes by Martin Luther
I have such hatred of divorce that I prefer bigamy to divorce. Anyway, I think we should see other people.
Martin Luther
A lie is like a snowball: the further you roll it the bigger it becomes.
Martin Luther
Christ wants to slay reason and subdue the arrogance of the Jews.
Martin Luther
You see then, that Diatribe truly possesses a free choice in her handling of Scriptures, so that words of one and the same type are for her obliged to prove endeavor in one place and freedom in another, exactly as she pleases.
Martin Luther
Therefore we Christians, in turn, are obliged not to tolerate their wanton and conscious blasphemy.
Martin Luther
[It is] essentially wholesome and necessary, for a Christian to know, whether or not the will does any thing in those things which pertain unto Salvation. Nay, let me tell you, this is the very hinge upon which our discussion turns. It is the very heart of the subject
Martin Luther
One drop of Christ's blood is worth more than heaven and earth.
Martin Luther
Our Lord God doeth work like a printer who setteth the letters backwards we see and feel well his setting, but we shall see the print yonder - in the life to come.
Martin Luther
The best way to get rid of the Devil, if you cannot kill it with the words of Holy Scripture, is to rail at and mock him. Music, too, is very good music is hateful to him, and drives him far away.
Martin Luther
Many demons are in woods, in waters, in wildernesses, and in dark poolly places ready to hurt...people.
Martin Luther
The confidence that God is mindful of the individual is of tremendous value in dealing with the disease of fear, for it gives us a sense of worth, of belonging, and of at homeness in the universe.
Martin Luther
What harm would it do, if a man told a good strong lie for the sake of the good.
Martin Luther
When I was a child there were many witches, and they bewitched both cattle and men, especially children.
Martin Luther
Let us keep to Christ, and cling to Him, and hang on Him, so that no power can remove us.
Martin Luther
Always preach in such a way that if the people listening do not come to hate their sin, they will instead hate you
Martin Luther
The multitude of books is a great evil. There is no limit to this fever for writing every one must be an author some out of vanity, to acquire celebrity and raise up a name, others for the sake of mere gain.
Martin Luther
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
Men are so delving into the mysteries of things that today a boy of twenty knows more than twenty doctors formerly knew.
Martin Luther
Our office...subjects us to great burdens and labors, dangers and temptations, with little reward or gratitude from the world. But Christ himself will be our reward if we labor faithfully.
Martin Luther
Out of the mountain of despair, a stone of hope.
Martin Luther
