More Quotes by Martin Luther
Lord Jesus, You are my righteousness, I am your sin. You took on you what was mine; yet set on me what was yours. You became what you were not, that I might become what I was not.
I have held many things in my hands, and I have lost them all; but whatever I have placed in God's hands, that I still possess.
Every week I preach justification by faith to my people, because every week they forget it.
The whole being of any Christian is faith and love. Faith brings the person to God, love brings the person to people.
We are saved by faith alone, but the faith that saves is never alone.
The sin underneath all our sins is to trust the lie of the serpent that we cannot trust the love and grace of Christ and must take matters into our own hands
Unless I am convicted by Scripture and plain reason-I do not accept the authority of popes and councils, for they have contradicted each other-my conscience is captive to the Word of God. I cannot and will not recant anything, for to go against conscience is neither right nor safe. Here I stand, I cannot do otherwise. God help me. Amen.
We are not yet what we shall be, but we are growing toward it, the process is not yet finished.
But know that to serve God is nothing else than to serve your neighbor and do good to him in love, be it a child, wife, servant, enemy, friend....If you do not find yourself among the needy and the poor, where the Gospel shows us Christ, then you may know that your faith is not right, and that you have not yet tasted of Christ's benevolence and work for you.
Pray, and let God worry.
