When asked what he would do if he knew the world would end tomorrow, Martin Luther said, I would plant a tree.
Martin Luther
Image
Nothing on earth is so well-suited to make the sad merry, the merry sad, to give courage to the despairing, to make the proud humble, to lessen envy and hate, as music.
Martin Luther
Image
[Our] plan is to follow the example of the prophets and the ancient fathers of the church, and to compose psalms...so that the Word of God may be among the people also in the form of music.
Martin Luther
Image
It is neither safe nor prudent to do anything against conscience.
Martin Luther

The veneration of Mary is inscribed in the very depths of the human heart
Martin Luther
Image
May the Lord fill you with His blessings and with hatred of the Pope.
Martin Luther
Image
It is a tremendously hard thing to pray aright, yea, it is verily the science of all sciences.
Martin Luther
Image
A Christian has no need of any law in order to be saved, since through faith we are free from every law. Thus all the acts of a Christian are done spontaneously, out of a sense of pure liberty.
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
First I shake the whole Apple tree, that the ripest might fall. Then I climb the tree and shake each limb, and then each branch and then each twig, and then I look under each leaf.
Martin Luther
Image
A penny saved is of more value than a penny paid out.
Martin Luther
Image
The faith towards God in Christ must be sure and steadfast, that it may solace and make glad the conscience, and put it to rest. When a man has this certainty, he has overcome the serpent but if he be doubtful of the doctrine, it is for him very dangerous to dispute with the devil.
Martin Luther
Image
Singing has nothing to do with the affairs of this world: it is not for the law. Singers are merry, and free from sorrows and cares.
Martin Luther
Image
Whoever sees Christ as a mirror of the Father's heart, actually walks through the world with new eyes.
Martin Luther
Image
I am bound by the texts of the Bible, my conscience is captive to the Word of God, I neither can nor will recant anything, since it is neither right nor safe to act against my conscience.
Martin Luther
Image
The Holy Spirit is no Skeptic, & the things He has written in our hearts are not doubts or opinions, but assertions - surer & more certain than sense & life itself.
Martin Luther
Image
Christians are rare people on earth.
Martin Luther
Image
The law of God cannot be fulfilled by external obedience.
Martin Luther
Image
I have before me God's Word which cannot fail, nor can the gates of hell prevail against it thereby will I remain, though the whole world be against me.
Martin Luther
Image
I am so busy now that if I did not spend three hours each day in prayer, I could not get through the day.
