If I had power over the Jews, as our princes and cities have, I would deal severely with their lying mouth
Martin LutherLet all your preaching be in the most simple and plainest manner; look not to the prince, but to the plain, simple, gross, unlearned people, of which cloth the prince also himself is made. If I, in my preaching, should have regard to Philip Melancthon and other learned doctors, then should I do but little good. I preach in the simplest manner to the unskillful, and that giveth content to all. Hebrew, Greek and Latin I spare until we learned ones come together.
Martin LutherTo preach Christ is to feed the soul, to justify it, to set it free, and to save it, if it believes the preaching.
Martin LutherThe Holy Ghost is not a Sceptic, and He has not inscribed in our hearts uncertain opinions, but, rather, affirmations of the strongest sorts.
Martin Luther
