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.

Image
I had rather be in hell with Christ, than be in heaven without him.
Martin Luther
Image
Heaven and earth, all the emperors, kings, and princes of the world, could not raise a fit dwelling-place for God yet, in a weak human soul, that keeps His Word, He willingly resides.
Martin Luther
Image
Be a sinner and sin boldly, but believe and rejoice in Christ even more boldly.
Martin Luther
Image
Nothing is easier than sinning.
Martin Luther
Image
The will of man without grace is not free, but is enslaved, and that too with its own consent.
Martin Luther
Image
If God is to create or to preserve a creature, God must be present and must make and preserve God's creation both in its innermost and outermost aspects.
Martin Luther
Image
Rest in the Lord wait patiently for Him. In Hebrew, Be silent in God, and let Him mould thee. Keep still, and He will mould thee to the right shape.
Martin Luther
Image
God can be found only in suffering and the cross.
Martin Luther
Image
We must not regard what or how the world esteems us, so we have the Word pure, and are certain of our doctrine.
Martin Luther
Image
I frankly confess that even if it were possible I should not wish to have free choice given to me, or to have anything left in my own hands by which I might strive for salvation.
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
I know not the way God leads me, but well do I know my Guide.
Martin Luther
Image
An angel is a spiritual creature created by God without a body, for the service of Christendom and of the church.
Martin Luther
Image
The two chief things are faith and love. Faith receives the good love gives the good. Faith offers us God as our own love gives us to our neighbor as his own.
Martin Luther
Image
Truly, if faith is there, the believer cannot hold back... he breaks out into good works.
Martin Luther
Image
The true despisers of the world are the people who accept what God sends them, gratefully use all things when they have them, and gladly do without them if God takes them away
Martin Luther
Image
Reason is the enemy of faith.
Martin Luther
Image
Justice is a temporary thing that must at last come to an end but the conscience is eternal and will never die.
Martin Luther
Image
When God creates faith in a man, that is as great a work as if He created heaven and earth all over again.
Martin Luther
Image
If I fail to spend two hours in prayer each morning, the devil gets the victory through the day. I have so much business I cannot get on without spending three hours daily in prayer.
Martin Luther
