Martin LutherI only ask in all kindness that the man who wishes at this time to have my books will by no means let them be a hindrance to his own study of the Scriptures, but read them as I read the orders and the ordures of the pope and the books of the sophists.
Martin LutherThis life therefore is not righteousness, but growth in righteousness, not health, but healing, not being but becoming, not rest but exercise.

All does not yet gleam in glory, but all is being purified.
Martin Luther
