Adam was created, as it were, ...

Adam was created, as it were, intoxicated with rejoicing toward God and was delighted also with all the other creatures.

Martin Luther 1073 quotes

Animals are footprints of God....

Animals are footprints of God.

Martin Luther 1073 quotes

In a mouse we admire God's creation and craft work. The same may be said about flies.

Martin Luther 1073 quotes

Adam and Eve derived the fulln...

Adam and Eve derived the fullness of joy and bliss from their contemplation of all the animal creatures.

Martin Luther 1073 quotes

If the heart has been reformed...

If the heart has been reformed by the spirit, it makes use of both the useful and delightful things created and given by God in a holy manner and with thanksgiving.

Martin Luther 1073 quotes

In a delightful garden, sowing...

In a delightful garden, sowing, planting or digging are not hardship but are done with a zeal and a certain pleasure.

Martin Luther 1073 quotes

God wants to be praised for no...

God wants to be praised for nourishing and cherishing, for God cherishes all creatures. God is not only the creator, but is also the sustainer and nourisher.

Martin Luther 1073 quotes

God is wholly present in all c...

God is wholly present in all creation, in every corner, behind you and before you. Do you think God is sleeping on a pillow in heaven? God is watching over you and protecting you.

Martin Luther 1073 quotes

Now if I believe in God's Son ...

Now if I believe in God's Son and remember that He became man, all creatures will appear a hundred times more beautiful to me than before. Then I will properly appreciate the sun, the moon, the stars, trees, apples, as I reflect that he is Lord over all things. ...God writes the Gospel, not in the Bible alone, but also on trees, and in the flowers and clouds and stars.

Martin Luther 1073 quotes

Let him who wants a true churc...

Let him who wants a true church cling to the Word by which everything is upheld.

Martin Luther 1073 quotes

How great, therefore, the wick...

How great, therefore, the wickedness of human nature is! How many girls there are who prevent conception and kill and expel tender fetuses, although procreation is the work of God.

Martin Luther 1073 quotes

Feelings come and feelings go,...

Feelings come and feelings go, And feelings are deceiving; My warrant is the Word of God-- Naught else is worth believing. Though all my heart should feel condemned For want of some sweet token, There is One greater than my heart Whose Word cannot be broken. I'll trust in God's unchanging Word Till soul and body sever, For, though all things shall pass away, HIS WORD SHALL STAND FOREVER!

Martin Luther 1073 quotes

Here I stand; I can do no othe...

Here I stand; I can do no other.

Martin Luther 1073 quotes

I see a word that hates evil more than it loves good.

Martin Luther 1073 quotes

Love is an image of God, and not a lifeless image, but the living essence of the divine nature which beams full of all goodness.

Martin Luther 1073 quotes

Faith is the master, and reaso...

Faith is the master, and reason the maid-servant.

Martin Luther 1073 quotes

Yes, would to God that I could...

Yes, would to God that I could persuade the rich and the mighty that they would permit the whole Bible to be painted on houses, on the inside and the outside, so that all can see it. That would be a Christian work... If it is not a sin but good to have the image of Christ in my heart, why should it be a sin to have it in my eyes? This is especially true since the heart is more important than the eyes, and should be less stained by sin because it is the true abode and dwelling place of God.

Martin Luther 1073 quotes

Our Lord God doeth work like a...

Our Lord God doeth work like a printer who setteth the letters backwards; we see and feel well his setting, but we shall see the print yonder - in the life to come.

Martin Luther 1073 quotes

This letter [to the Romans] is...

This letter [to the Romans] is truly the most important piece in the New Testament. It is purest Gospel. It is well worth a Christian's while not only to memorize it word for word but also to occupy himself with it daily, as though it were the daily bread of the soul. It is impossible to read or to meditate on this letter too much or too well. The more one deals with it, the more precious it becomes, and the better it tastes.

Martin Luther 1073 quotes

The fatuous idea that a person...

The fatuous idea that a person can be holy by himself denies God the pleasure of saving sinners. God must therefore first take the sledge-hammer of the Law in His fists and smash the beast of self-righteousness and its brood of self-confidence, self wisdom, and self-help. When the conscience has been thoroughly frightened by the Law it welcomes the Gospel of grace with its message of a Savior Who came-not to break the bruised reed nor to quench the smoking flax-but to preach glad tidings to the poor, to heal the broken
