God is not a God of sadness, death, etc., but the devil is. Christ is a God of joy, and so the Scriptures often say that we should rejoice ... A Christian should and must be a cheerful person.
Martin Luther

More quotes by 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
I have no use for cranks who despise music, because it is a gift of God. Music drives away the Devil and makes people joyful they forget thereby all wrath, unchastity, arrogance, and the like. Next after theology, I give to music the highest place and the greatest honor.
Martin Luther
It is a good thing to let prayer be the first business of the morning and the last of the evening.
Martin Luther
I am more afraid of my own heart than of the pope and all his cardinals. I have within me the great pope, Self.
Martin Luther
A unjust law, is no law at all.
Martin Luther
I was increasingly compelled to see the war as an enemy of the poor and to attack it as such.
Martin Luther
The Clergy is the greatest hindrance to faith.
Martin Luther
True faith will no more fail to produce [good works] than the sun can cease to give light.
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
The mad mob does not ask how it could be better, only that it be different. And when it then becomes worse, it must change again. Thus they get bees for flies, and at last hornets for bees.
Martin Luther
One drop of Christ's blood is worth more than heaven and earth.
Martin Luther
Daily there have to be many troubles and trials in every house, city, and country. No station in life is free of suffering and pain, both from your own, like your wife or children or household help or subjects, and from the outside, from your neighbors and all sorts of accidental trouble.
Martin Luther
Whatever we make the most of is our God.
Martin Luther
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
The first duty of the gospel preacher is to declare God's law and to show the nature of sin.
Martin Luther
There are two days in my calendar: This day and that Day.
Martin Luther
We need not invite the Devil to our table he is too ready to come without being asked. The air all about us is filled with demons.
Martin Luther
In our sad condition our only consolation is the expectancy of another life. Here below all is incomprehensible.
Martin Luther
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
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
