Christ is the Master; the Scriptures are only the servant. The true way to test all the Books is to see whether they work the will of Christ or not. No Book which does not preach Christ can be apostolic, though Peter or Paul were its author. And no Book which does preach Christ can fail to be apostolic, although Judas, Ananias, Pilate, or Herod were its author.
Martin LutherAlways preach in such a way that if the people listening do not come to hate their sin, they will instead hate you
Martin LutherWhen God creates faith in a man, that is as great a work as if He created heaven and earth all over again.
Martin Luther
