More quotes by Martin Luther
Hereby we may understand that God, of His special grace, maketh the teachers of the gospel subject to the Cross, and to all kinds of afflicitons, for the salvation of themselves and of the people for otherwise they could by no means beat down this beast which is called vain-glory.
Martin Luther
God foreknows nothing by contingency, but that He foresees, purposes, and does all things according to His immutable, eternal, and infallible will. By this thunderbolt, Free-will is thrown prostrate, and utterly dashed to pieces.
Martin Luther
We believe that the very beginning and end of salvation, and the sum of Christianity, consists of faith in Christ, who by His blood alone, and not by any works of ours, has put away sin, and destroyed the power of death.
Martin Luther
The man who has the will to undergo all labor may win to any good.
Martin Luther
God's love does not love that which is worthy of being loved, but it creates that which is worthy of being loved.
Martin Luther
This is true faith, a living confidence in the goodness of God.
Martin Luther
The Devil fears the word of God, He can't bite it it breaks his teeth.
Martin Luther
They are trying to make me into a fixed star. I am an irregular planet.
Martin Luther
Therefore the blind Jews are truly stupid fools.
Martin Luther
The Holy Ghost must here be our only master and tutor.
Martin Luther
Lord, grant that anger or other bitterness does not reign over us, but that your grace, genuine kindness, loyalty, and every kind of friendliness, generosity, and gentleness may reign in us. Amen
Martin Luther
One learns more of Christ in being married and rearing children than in several lifetimes spent in study in a monastery.
Martin Luther
Unthankfulness is theft.
Martin Luther
For who in fact seeks the salvation of souls through indulgences, and not instead money for his coffers? This is evident from the way indulgences are preached . For the commissioners and preachers do nothing but extol indulgences and incite.
Martin Luther
God is a blank sheet upon which nothing is found but what you yourself have written.
Martin Luther
Your God is altogether too human.
Martin Luther
When some say that good works are forbidden when we preach faith alone, it is as if I said to a sick man: If you had health, you would have the use of all your limbs but without health, the works of all your limbs are nothing and he wanted to infer that I had forbidden the works of all his limbs.
Martin Luther
Know that no one can have indulged in the Holy Writers sufficiently, unless he has governed churches for a hundred years with the prophets, such as Elijah and Elisha, John the Baptist, Christ and the apostles... We are beggars: this is true.
Martin Luther
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
It is not the imitation that makes sons it is sonship that makes imitators.
Martin Luther
