More quotes by 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

Martin Luther
Image
Christian life consists of faith and charity
Martin Luther
Image
How often have not the demons called 'Nix,' drawn women and girls into the water, and there had commerce with them, with fearful consequences.
Martin Luther
Image
Nothing is more sweet than harmony in marriage, and nothing more distressing than dissension.
Martin Luther
Image
When God works in us, the will, being changed and sweetly breathed upon by the Spirit of God, desires and acts, not from compulsion, but responsively.
Martin Luther
Image
Human reason is like a drunken man on horseback set it up on one side, and it tumbles over on the other
Martin Luther
Image
The mystery of the humanity of Christ, that he sunk himself into our flesh, is beyond all human understanding.
Martin Luther
Image
The man who has the will to undergo all labor may win to any good.
Martin Luther

The more a person loves, the closer he approaches the image of God.
Martin Luther
