In honor of Reformation Day, I give you a handful of my favorite Martin Luther quotes. Enjoy.
[blockquote pull=”” align=”left” attributed_to=”Martin Luther” attributed_to_url=”https://www.keylife.org/programs/steve-brown-etc”]A Christian man is the most free lord of all, and subject to none; a Christian man is the most dutiful servant of all, and subject to everyone.[/blockquote] [blockquote pull=”” align=”left” attributed_to=”Martin Luther” attributed_to_url=”https://www.keylife.org/programs/steve-brown-etc”]From the beginning of my reformation I have asked God to send me neither dreams, nor visions, nor angels, but to give me the right understanding of His Word, the Holy Scriptures; for as long as I have God’s Word, I know that I am walking in His way and that I shall not fall into any error or delusion.[/blockquote] [blockquote pull=”” align=”left” attributed_to=”Martin Luther” attributed_to_url=”https://www.keylife.org/programs/steve-brown-etc”]Whoever drinks beer, he is quick to sleep; whoever sleeps long, does not sin; whoever does not sin, enters Heaven! Thus, let us drink beer![/blockquote] [blockquote pull=”” align=”left” attributed_to=”Martin Luther” attributed_to_url=”https://www.keylife.org/programs/steve-brown-etc”]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.[/blockquote] [blockquote pull=”” align=”left” attributed_to=”Martin Luther” attributed_to_url=”https://www.keylife.org/programs/steve-brown-etc”]The fewer the words, the better the prayer.[/blockquote] [blockquote pull=”” align=”left” attributed_to=”Martin Luther” attributed_to_url=”https://www.keylife.org/programs/steve-brown-etc”]When Satan tells me I am a sinner he comforts me immeasurably, since Christ died for sinners.[/blockquote] [blockquote pull=”” align=”left” attributed_to=”Martin Luther” attributed_to_url=”https://www.keylife.org/programs/steve-brown-etc”]Strange, though I am saved from sin, I am not saved from sinning.[/blockquote] [blockquote pull=”” align=”left” attributed_to=”Martin Luther” attributed_to_url=”https://www.keylife.org/programs/steve-brown-etc”]Do not suppose that abuses are eliminated by destroying the object which is abused. Men can go wrong with wine and women. Shall we then prohibit and abolish women?[/blockquote] [blockquote pull=”” align=”left” attributed_to=”Martin Luther” attributed_to_url=”https://www.keylife.org/programs/steve-brown-etc”]A happy fart never comes from a miserable ass.[/blockquote]
