This is the good and happy news, that Christ has paid for our sin, and through His suffering has redeemed us from eternal death. It is His kingdom and His ministry, to preach the Gospel to the poor; that is His purpose. For to the great and holy He cannot come. They do not wish to be counted sinners, and therefore do not need His Gospel.

Martin Luther 1073 quotes

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.

Martin Luther 1073 quotes

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.

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

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 1073 quotes

He who receives a sacrament does not perform a good work; he receives a benefit. In the mass we give Christ nothing; we only receive from Him.

Martin Luther 1073 quotes

Faith cannot be inherited or ...

Faith cannot be inherited or gained by being baptized into a Church. Faith is a matter between the individual and God.

Martin Luther 1073 quotes

You parents can provide no better gift for your children than an education in the liberal arts. House and home burn down, but an education is easy to carry along.

Martin Luther 1073 quotes

Did I not tell you earlier that a Jew is such a noble, precious jewel that God and all the angels dance when he farts?

Martin Luther 1073 quotes

Godly people are waiting for the Lord; therefore they live, therefore they are saved, therefore they receive what has been promised.

Martin Luther 1073 quotes

If you could understand a sin...

If you could understand a single grain of wheat you would die of wonder.

Martin Luther 1073 quotes

Christ took our sins and the sins of the whole world as well as the Father's wrath on his shoulders, and he has drowned them both in himself so that we are thereby reconciled to God and become completely righteous.

Martin Luther 1073 quotes

I know that a Christian should be humble, but against the Pope I am going to be proud and say to him: "You, Pope, I will not have you for my boss, for I am sure that my doctrine is divine.

Martin Luther 1073 quotes

Many sweat to reconcile St Paul and St James, but in vain. 'Faith justifies' and 'faith does not justify' contradict each other flatly. If any one can harmonize them I will give him my doctor's hood and let him call me a fool.
