Over against the devil and hi...

Over against the devil and his missionaries, the authors of false doctrines and sects, we ought to be like the Apostle, impatient, and rigorously condemnatory, as parents are with the dog that bites their little one, but the weeping child itself they soothe.

Martin Luther 1073 quotes

What shall we Christians do n...

What shall we Christians do now with this depraved and damned people of the Jews? ... I will give my faithful advice: First, that one should set fire to their synagogues. . . . Then that one should also break down and destroy their houses. . . . That one should drive them out the country.

Martin Luther 1073 quotes

I [i.e., God] have given you ...

I [i.e., God] have given you baptism as a gift for the forgiveness of sins, and preach to you unceasingly by word of mouth concerning this treasure, sealing it with the Sacrament of my body and blood, so that you need never doubt. True, it seems little and insignificant that by the washing of water, the Word, and the Sacrament this should all be effected. But don't let your eyes deceive you.

Martin Luther 1073 quotes

True Christian love is not de...

True Christian love is not derived from things without, but floweth from the heart, as from a spring.

Martin Luther 1073 quotes

Sheep, cattle, men-servants were all possessions to be sold as it pleased their masters. It were a good thing were it still so. For else no man may compel nor tame the servile folk.

Those with prodigious skill in music are better suited for all things.

Martin Luther 1073 quotes

Nothing is more sweet than harmony in marriage, and nothing more distressing than dissension.

Martin Luther 1073 quotes

What can only be taught by the rod and with blows will not lead to much good; they will not remain pious any longer than the rod is behind them.

Martin Luther 1073 quotes

Where the battle rages, there the loyalty of the soldier is proved; and to be steady on all the battlefield besides, is mere flight and disgrace if he flinches at that point.

Martin Luther 1073 quotes

The mad mob does not ask how ...

The mad mob does not ask how it could be better, only that it be different. And when it then becomes worse, it must change again. Thus they get bees for flies, and at last hornets for bees.

Martin Luther 1073 quotes

[Christ's] mission and work i...

[Christ's] mission and work it is to help against sin and death, to justify and bring life. He has placed his help in baptism and the Sacrament [i.e., communion/Eucharist/Lord's supper], and incorporated it in the Word and preaching. To our eyes Baptism [capitalized in original] appears to be nothing more than ordinary water, and the Sacrament of Christ's body and blood simple bread and wine, like other bread and wine, and the sermon, hot air from a man's mouth. But we must not trust what our eyes see.

Martin Luther 1073 quotes

The Devil...clutched hold of ...

The Devil...clutched hold of the miserable young man...and flew off with him through the ceiling, since which time nothing has been heard of him.

Martin Luther 1073 quotes

I would not have preachers torment their hearers, and detain them with long and tedious preaching.

Martin Luther 1073 quotes

I maintain that some Jew wrote it who probably heard about Christian people but never encountered any.

Martin Luther 1073 quotes

Isaiah calls the Church barren because her children are born without effort by the Word of faith through the Spirit of God. It is a matter of birth, not of exertion.

Martin Luther 1073 quotes

If God had not permitted the people of Jerusalem to be torn asunder and driven them from the land, but had let them keep it after before, no one could convince them that they are not God`s chosen people.

Martin Luther 1073 quotes

The fool will upset the whole science of astronomy, but as the Holy Scripture shows, it was the sun and not the earth which Joshua ordered to stand still.

Martin Luther 1073 quotes

Blessed is the man that hath ...

Blessed is the man that hath not walked in the way of the Sacramentarians, nor sat in the seat of the Zwinglians, nor followed the Council of the Zurichers.

Martin Luther 1073 quotes

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

Anything that one imagines of God apart from Christ is only useless thinking and vain idolatry.
