Every doer of the law and every moral worker is accursed, for he walketh in the presumption of his own righteousness.
Martin LutherIf the peasants are in open rebellion, then they are outside the law of God. Therefore let all who are able slash, strike down, and kill (those who rebel) openly and secretly, remembering that there can be nothing more venomous, harmful, or devilish than a rebel. It is exactly like killing a mad dog.
Martin Luther
