Inside the Mind of a Reformer

[Nahum]

"All who call on God in true faith, earnestly from the heart, will certainly be heard, and will receive what they have asked and desired."

Martin Luther

[Nahum]

"Anyone who is to find Christ must first find the church. How could anyone know where Christ is and what faith is in him unless he knew where his believers are?"

Martin Luther

[Nahum]

Blood alone moves the wheels of history.

Martin Luther

[Nahum]

"Faith is a living and unshakable confidence, a belief in the grace of God so assured that a man would die a thousand deaths for its sake."

Martin Luther

[Nahum]

"I am more afraid of my own heart than of the pope and all his cardinals. I have within me the great pope, Self."

Martin Luther

[Nahum]

"I have held many things in my hands, and I have lost them all; but whatever I have placed in God's hands, that I still possess. "

Martin Luther

[Nahum]

"Peace if possible, truth at all costs."

That quote is troubling. Luther was a rather problematic individual.

[Nahum]

“You are not only responsible for what you say, but also for what you do not say.”

Martin Luther

"The Jews are a base, whoring people, that is, no people of God, and their boast of lineage, circumcision, and law must be accounted as filth. They are full of the devil's feces ... which they wallow in like swine, and the synagogue is an incorrigible whore and an evil slut ... their synagogues and schools should be set on fire, their prayer books destroyed, rabbis forbidden to preach, homes razed, and property and money confiscated. They should be shown no mercy or kindness, afforded no legal protection, and these poisonous envenomed worms should be drafted into forced labor or expelled for all time...we are at fault in not slaying them."
