Martin Luther Quote
A Christian is a perfectly dutiful servant of all, subject all.
From Romans 14:11-12: “For it is written, ‘As I live, says the Lord, every knee shall bow to Me, and every tongue shall give praise to God.’ So then, each one of us will be held accountable.”

Our Lord has written the promise of the resurrection, not in books alone, but in every leaf in springtime.

Prayer Quotes
Martin Luther (German priest and reformer)
None can believe how powerful prayer is, and what it is able to effect, but those who have learned it by experience.

From 1 Thessalonians 5:16-18: “Rejoice always, pray without ceasing, give thanks in all circumstances, for this is the will of God in Christ Jesus for you.”
Martin Luther Quote
A Christian is a perfectly free lord of all, subject to none. A Christian is a perfectly dutiful servant of all, subject to all.
From 1 Corinthians 9:19: “For though I am free with respect to all, I have made myself a slave to all, so that I might win more of them.”
Martin Luther Quote
That is the mystery which is rich in divine grace to sinners: wherein by a wonderful exchange our sins are no longer ours but Christ’s and the righteousness of Christ is not Christ’s but ours.
From 2 Corinthians 5:20-21: “So we are ambassadors for Christ, since God is making His appeal through us; we entreat you on behalf of Christ, be reconciled to God. For our sake He made Him to be sin who knew no sin, so that in Him we might become the righteousness of God.”
Martin Luther Quote
Many things I have tried to grasp and have lost. That which I have placed in God’s hands I still have.
From Job 1:20-22: “Then Job arose, tore his robe, shaved his head, and fell on the ground and worshiped. He said, ‘Naked I came from my mother’s womb, and naked shall I return there; the Lord gave, and the Lord has taken away; blessed be the name of the Lord.’ In all this Job did not sin or charge God with wrongdoing.”
Martin Luther Quote
The Bible is alive, it speaks to me; it has feet, it runs after me; it has hands, it lays hold of me. The Bible is not antique or modern. It is eternal.
From Matthew 4:4: “But He [Jesus] answered, ‘It is written, One does not live by bread alone, but by every word that comes from the mouth of God.'”

I have held many things in my hands, and have lost them all, but whatever I have placed in God’s hands, that I still possess.
From James 5:11: “Indeed we call blessed those who showed endurance. You have heart of the endurance of Job, and you have seen the purpose of the Lord, how the Lord is compassionate and merciful.”

Christ is no Moses, no exactor, no giver of laws, but a giver of grace, a Savior; He is infinite mercy and goodness, freely and bountifully given to us.
