Whatever man loves, that is his god. For he carries it in his heart; he goes about with it night and day; he sleeps and wakes with it, be it what it may – wealth or self, pleasure or renown.
— Martin Luther
Predestination
To those who are elect and have the Spirit, predestination is the very sweetest of all doctrines, but to the worldly-wise it is the bitterest and hardest of all. The reason God saves in this way is to show that he saves not by our merits but by election pure and simple, and by his unchanging will. We are saved by his unchanging love.
— Martin Luther
Grace
Grace is given to heal the sick, not to decorate spiritual heroes.
— Martin Luther
Jesus Christ’s Deity and Humanity
If Christ is divested of his deity, there remains no help against God’s wrath and no rescue from his judgment.
— Martin Luther
Work
A dairymaid can milk cows to the glory of God.
— Martin Luther
