Always preach in such a way that if the people listening do not come to hate their sin, they will instead hate you
Martin LutherThe winds are nothing else but good or bad spirits. Hark! how the Devil is puffing and blowing.
Martin LutherWhere faith is not continually kept in motion and exercised, it weakens and decreases, so that it must indeed vanish; and yet we do not see nor feel this weakness ourselves, except in times of need and temptation, when unbelief rages too strongly; and yet for that very reason faith must have temptations in which it may battle and grow.
Martin Luther
