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.

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
God created Adam lord of all living creatures, but Eve spoiled it all.
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
If he have faith, the believer cannot be restrained. He betrays himself. He breaks out. He confesses and teaches this gospel to the people at the risk of life itself.
Martin Luther
Image
Whatever man loves, that is his god. For he carries it in his heart he goes about with it night and day he sleeps and wakes with it, be it what it may - wealth or self, pleasure or renown.
Martin Luther
Image
To be a Christian without prayer is no more possible than to be alive without breathing.
Martin Luther
Image
I believe that the devil has destroyed many good books of the church, as, aforetime, he killed and crushed many holy persons, the memory of whom has now passed away but the Bible he was fain to leave subsisting.
Martin Luther
Image
Antichrist is the pope and the Turk [Muslim] together. A beast full of life must have a body and soul. The spirit or soul of Antichrist is the pope, his flesh or body the Turk.
Martin Luther
Image
It is a tremendously hard thing to pray aright, yea, it is verily the science of all sciences.
Martin Luther
Image
God creates out of nothing. Therefore, until a man is nothing, God can make nothing out of him.
Martin Luther
Image
Every country must have its own devil. Welshland its own, and France its own. Our German devil will be a good wind-pipe, and must be called drinking, being so thirsty and hell-like that no guzzling of wine and beer, however large, will cool it off, and I fear that such will ever remain Germany's plague, until the day of judgment.
Martin Luther
Image
Reason must be deluded, blinded, and destroyed. Faith must trample underfoot all reason, sense, and understanding, and whatever it sees must be put out of sight and ... know nothing but the word of God.
Martin Luther
Image
In a delightful garden, sowing, planting or digging are not hardship but are done with a zeal and a certain pleasure.
Martin Luther
Image
Some will object that the Law is divine and holy. Let it be divine and holy. The Law has no right to tell me that I must be justified by it.
Martin Luther
Image
It is not the imitation that makes sons it is sonship that makes imitators.
Martin Luther
Image
To gather with God's people in united adoration of the Father is as necessary to the Christian life as prayer.
Martin Luther
Image
God is entirely and personally present in the wilderness, in the garden, in the field.
Martin Luther
Image
The Devil...clutched hold of the miserable young man...and flew off with him through the ceiling, since which time nothing has been heard of him.
Martin Luther
Image
God doesn't slack his promises because of our sins or hasten them because of our righteousness. He pays no attention to either.
Martin Luther
Image
Here is the truly Christian life, here is faith really working by love, when a man applies himself with joy and love to the works of that freest servitude in which he serves others voluntarily and for nought, himself abundantly satisfied in the fulness and riches of his own faith.
Martin Luther
