As concerning faith we ought ...

As concerning faith we ought to be invincible, and more hard, if it might be, than the adamant stone; but as touching charity, we ought to be soft, and more flexible than the reed or leaf that is shaken with the wind, and ready to yield to everything.

Martin Luther 1073 quotes

The proverb has it that Hunge...

The proverb has it that Hunger is the best cook. The Law makes afflicted consciences hungry for Christ. Christ tastes good to them. Hungry hearts appreciate Christ. Thirsty souls are what Christ wants. He invites them: Come unto me, all ye that labour and are heavy laden, and I will give you rest. Christ's benefits are so precious that He will dispense them only to those who need them and really desire them.

And though this world with devils filled, Should threaten to undo us, We will not fear, for God hath willed His truth to triumph through us.

Martin Luther 1073 quotes

I cannot believe that my illness is natural. I suspect Satan, and therefore I am the more inclined to take it lightly.

Martin Luther 1073 quotes

I have many times essayed tho...

I have many times essayed thoroughly to investigate the ten commandments, but at the very outset, "I am the Lord thy God," I stuck fast; that very one word, I, put me to a non-plus. He that has but one word of God before him, and out of that word cannot make a sermon, can never be a preacher.

Martin Luther 1073 quotes

Obedience is the crown and honour of all virtue.

If God were willing to sell His grace, we would accept it more quickly and gladly than when He offers it for nothing.

Martin Luther 1073 quotes

What shall we do with...the Jews?...I advise that all their prayer books and Talmudic writings...are to be taken from them.

Martin Luther 1073 quotes

I have lived to see the greatest plague on earth -- the condemning of God's word, a fearful thing, surpassing all other plagues in the world; for thereupon most surely follow all manner of punishments, eternal and corporal.

Martin Luther 1073 quotes

God does not save those who a...

God does not save those who are only imaginary sinners. Be a sinner, and let your sins be strong (sin boldly), but let your trust in Christ be stronger, and rejoice in Christ who is the victor over sin, death, and the world. We will commit sins while we are here, for this life is not a place where justice resides. We, however, ... are looking forward to a new heaven and a new earth where justice will reign.

Martin Luther 1073 quotes

The gospel cannot be preached...

The gospel cannot be preached and heard enough, for it cannot be grasped well enough ... Moreover, our greatest task is to keep you faithful to this article and to bequeath this treasure to you when we die.

Martin Luther 1073 quotes

I was born to fight devils an...

I was born to fight devils and factions. It is my business to remove obstacles, to cut down thorns, to fill up quagmires and to open and make straight paths. If I must have some failing let me rather speak the truth with too great sincerity than once to act the hypocrite and conceal the truth.

Ambition begat simony; simony begat the pope and his brethren, about the time of the Babylonish captivity

Martin Luther 1073 quotes

Every evening brings us nearer God.

Leave the ass burdened with laws behind in the valley. But your conscience, let it ascend with Isaac into the mountain.

Martin Luther 1073 quotes

Nothing is more unbecoming to a teacher of the Word than flippancy. He must be serious and should not act like a clown.

Martin Luther 1073 quotes

The certain mark by which a Christian community can be recognized is the preaching of the gospel in its purity.

Martin Luther 1073 quotes

I have always loved music; whoso has skill in this art, is of a good temperament, fitted for all things. We must teach music in schools; a schoolmaster ought to have skill in music, or I would not regard him; neither should we ordain young men as preachers, unless they have been well exercised in music

Martin Luther 1073 quotes

Idiots, the lame, the blind, ...

Idiots, the lame, the blind, the dumb, are men in whom the devils have established themselves: and all the physicians who heal these infirmities, as though they proceeded from natural causes, are ignorant blockheads.

Martin Luther 1073 quotes

Human nature is like a drunk ...

Human nature is like a drunk peasant. Lift him into the saddle on one side, over he topples on the other side.
