Martin Luther Doctrine Quotations

How is God's name hallowed among us? When both our doctrine and living are truly Christian.

We must not regard what or how the world esteems us, so we have the Word pure, and are certain of our doctrine.

..Christ and his word can hardly be recognized because of the great vermin of human ordinances. However, let this suffice for the time being on their lies against doctrine or faith.

I do not admit that my doctrine can be judged by anyone.

The faith towards God in Christ must be sure and steadfast, that it may solace and make glad the conscience, and put it to rest. When a man has this certainty, he has overcome the serpent; but if he be doubtful of the doctrine, it is for him very dangerous to dispute with the devil.

This doctrine (justification) is the head and the cornerstone. It alone begets, nourishes, builds, preserves, and defends the church of God and without it the church of God cannot exist for one hour.

When the devil wants to cause offense against the true doctrine and faith, he does not do so through insignificant people, who do not rate highly with the world, but through those who are the very best, the wisest, the holiest, and the most learned.

This error of free will is a special doctrine of the Antichrist.
