Germany

Profession:

Religious professional

Martin Luther was a composer, a professor of religion, a monk, and a priest in the German race. He was a prominent figure in the Protestant Reformation and was probably a prominent 14th-century rebel. He strongly criticized the Roman Catholic Church because he firmly believed that it was the Bible and not the Church that should determine the validity and interpretation of the Lord's word. To make the sacred teachings more readily available to the German public, he translated the book into German. Upon completing his studies at Efurt University, Luther pursued Aristotle's philosophy and theology. Tired of materialism, he turned to religion and meditated on his own faults, sins, and weak points. This has given him the strength to emerge as a spiritual leader. Luther firmly believed that money cannot buy freedom from punishment for God's sins. Through repentance, one can gain salvation. He proposed high-level educational discussions on this and published ninety-five recommendations to bring about a radical change in traditional views. Although Emperor denounced him as a criminal and the pope demanded that he renounce all his writings, Luther argued with religious fanatics. Even so, in the last few years of his life, his anti-Semitic views made him a hot topic in history. Martin Luther was one of the most influential people and has been quoted many times. Luther's writings and influence over the church are still very much in vogue today. We have examined his work, speeches and writings to find some of his most popular quotes and sayings. A collection of Martin Luther quotations that are still in use today.

QUOTES BY Martin Luther

Even if I knew that tomorrow the world would go to pieces, I would still plant my apple tree.

We are saved by faith alone, but the faith that saves is never alone.

If you want to change the world, pick up your pen and write.

My heart, which is so full to overflowing, has often been solaced and refreshed by music when sick and weary.

I have so much to do that I shall spend the first three hours in prayer.

The dog is the most faithful of animals and would be much esteemed were it not so common. Our Lord God has made His greatest gifts the commonest.

Everything that is done in this world is done by hope.

True humility does not know that it is humble. If it did, it would be proud from the contemplation of so fine a virtue.

You have as much laughter as you have faith.

Be a sinner and sin﻿﻿ boldly,﻿ but believe and﻿﻿ rejoice in Christ even more boldly.

I am afraid that the schools will prove the very gates of hell, unless they diligently labor in explaining the Holy Scriptures and engraving them in the heart of the youth.

Be a sinner and sin boldly, but believe and rejoice in Christ even more boldly.
