The bible is the cradle that holds the Christ, without him it is nothing more than wood and straw.
Martin LutherI simply taught, preached, wrote God's Word: otherwise I did nothing. The Word of God did it all.
Martin LutherAll the passages in the Holy Scriptures that mention assistance are they that do away with "free-will", and these are countless...For grace is needed, and the help of grace is given, because "free-will" can do nothing.
Martin LutherFrom 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.
Martin Luther
