Faith does not inquire whether there are good works to be done, but even before asking questions, faith has done the works already.

Martin Luther 1073 quotes

When the gospel flourishes in...

When the gospel flourishes in the church, everything flourishes with it.

Martin Luther 1073 quotes

Sin cannot tear you away from...

Sin cannot tear you away from him [Christ] even though you commit adultery a hundred times a day and commit as many murders.

Martin Luther 1073 quotes

Every country must have its o...

Every country must have its own devil. Welshland its own, and France its own. Our German devil will be a good wind-pipe, and must be called drinking, being so thirsty and hell-like that no guzzling of wine and beer, however large, will cool it off, and I fear that such will ever remain Germany's plague, until the day of judgment.

Martin Luther 1073 quotes

It hath been said, that there...

It hath been said, that there is of nothing so much in hell as of self-will. The which is true, for there is nothing else there than self-will, and if there were no self-will, there would be no Devil and no hell. When it is said that Lucifer fell from Heaven, and turned away from God and the like, it meaneth nothing else than that he would have his own will, and would not be at one with the Eternal Will. So was it likewise with Adam in Paradise. And when we say Self-will, we mean, to will otherwise than as the One and Eternal Will of God willeth.

Martin Luther 1073 quotes

In Switzerland, on a high mountain, not far from Lucerne, there is a lake they call Pilate's Pond, which the Devil has fixed upon as one of the chief residences of his evil spirits.

Martin Luther 1073 quotes

I would not give one moment of heaven for all the joy and riches of the world, even if it lasted for thousands and thousands of years.

Martin Luther 1073 quotes

All which happens through the...

All which happens through the whole world happens through hope. No husbandman would sow a grain of corn if he did not hope it would spring up and bring forth the ear; how much more we are helped on by hope in the eternal life.

Martin Luther 1073 quotes

Albert Durer, the famous painter, used to say he had no pleasure in pictures that were painted with many colors, but in those which were painted with a choice simplicity. So it is with me as to sermons.

Martin Luther 1073 quotes

When one is possessed with do...

When one is possessed with doubt, that though he call upon the Lord he cannot be heard, and that God has turned him heart from him, and is angry ... he must arm himself with God's Word, promising to hear him.

Martin Luther 1073 quotes

Believest thou? then thou wil...

Believest thou? then thou wilt speak boldly. Speakest thou boldy? then thou must suffer. Sufferest thou? then thou shalt be comforted. For faith, the confession thereof, and the cross do follow one another.

Martin Luther 1073 quotes

The great event on Calvary . ...

The great event on Calvary . . . is an eternal reminder to a power drunk generation that love is the most durable power in the world, and that it is at bottom the heartbeat of the moral cosmos. Only through achieving this love can you expect to matriculate into the university of eternal life.

Martin Luther 1073 quotes

I think these things [firearm...

I think these things [firearms] were invented by Satan himself, for they can't be defended against with (ordinary) weapons and fists. All human strength vanishes when confronted with firearms. A man is dead before he sees what's coming.

Martin Luther 1073 quotes

Great people and champions ar...

Great people and champions are special gifts of God, whom He gives and preserves; they do their work, and achieve great actions, not with vain imaginations, or cold and sleepy cogitations, but by motion of God.

Martin Luther 1073 quotes

A man must be able to affirm,...

A man must be able to affirm, I know for certain, that what I teach is the only Word of the high Majesty of God in heaven, his final conclusion and everlasting, unchangeable truth, and whatsoever concurs and agrees not with this doctrine, is altogether false, and spun by the devil.

Martin Luther 1073 quotes

Next to the Word of God, music deserves the highest praise.

Martin Luther 1073 quotes

No one would be happier than Luther to be commended by the testimony of the time that he had been neither slack nor deceitful in maintaining the course of truth, but had shown quite enough and even too much vehemence.

Martin Luther 1073 quotes

so it is with human reason, which strives not against faith, when enlightened, but rather furthers and advances it.

Martin Luther 1073 quotes

We must not regard what or ho...

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 1073 quotes

A man who has no part in the ...

A man who has no part in the grace of God, cannot keep the commandments of God, or prepare himself, either wholly or in part, to receive grace; but he rests of necessity under the power of sin.
