I am a professor of theology and seminal figure of the Protestant Reformation during the 16th century. I have more than just 95 thesis to tweet.

Our light so shines in the eyes of all men, that none can deny it. #martinluther

I desire neither honor nor crown here on earth, but I will have compensation from God, the just judge in heaven. #martinluther

[ɱʌɾƭɪɲ ʅυƭɦєɾ @MartinLuther_95]

We belong not to this life, but to another far better. #martinluther

[ɱʌɾƭɪɲ ʅυƭɦєɾ @MartinLuther_95]

When we are found true in our vocations and calling, then we have reaped honor sufficient, though not in this life, yet in that to come;

[ɱʌɾƭɪɲ ʅυƭɦєɾ @MartinLuther_95]

Here on earth we must seek for no honor, for it is written: Woe unto you when men shall bless you. #martinluther

God often lays upon the necks of haughty divines all manner of crosses & plagues to humble them;and therein they are well and rightly served

[ɱʌɾƭɪɲ ʅυƭɦєɾ @MartinLuther_95]

I would not have preachers torment their hearers & detain them with long & tedious preaching, for the delight of hearing vanishes therewith

[ɱʌɾƭɪɲ ʅυƭɦєɾ @MartinLuther_95]

To the poor is the Gospel declared, for the rich regard it not. #martinluther

[ɱʌɾƭɪɲ ʅυƭɦєɾ @MartinLuther_95]

The ungodly have great power, riches, & respect...we, the true and upright Christians, have but only one poor, silly, & condemned Christ.

[ɱʌɾƭɪɲ ʅυƭɦєɾ @MartinLuther_95]

We must not suffer ourselves to be deceived or troubled as to what the world thinks of us. To please the good is our virtue.

[ɱʌɾƭɪɲ ʅυƭɦєɾ @MartinLuther_95]

The true Christian church, in the eye of the world, is foul, deformed, and offensive; yet, ... in the sight of God, she is precious.

[ɱʌɾƭɪɲ ʅυƭɦєɾ @MartinLuther_95]

Where God's word is purely taught there is also the upright & true church;for the true church is supported by the Holy Ghost. #martinluther

[ɱʌɾƭɪɲ ʅυƭɦєɾ @MartinLuther_95]

God says: I say it, I do it; it is God only that speaks and does what he pleases; #martinluther

[ɱʌɾƭɪɲ ʅυƭɦєɾ @MartinLuther_95]

The true church is an assembly or congregation depending on that which does not appear nor be comprehended in the mind,namely God's Word

[ɱʌɾƭɪɲ ʅυƭɦєɾ @MartinLuther_95]

Some one sent to know whether it was permissible to use warm water in baptism? ... "Tell the blockhead that water, warm or cold, is water."

[ɱʌɾƭɪɲ ʅυƭɦєɾ @MartinLuther_95]

Prayer preserves the church, and hitherto has done the best for the church; therefore, we must continually pray. #martinluther

[ɱʌɾƭɪɲ ʅυƭɦєɾ @MartinLuther_95]

Upright Christians pray without ceasing; though they pray not always with their mouths, yet their hearts pray continually, sleeping & waking

[ɱʌɾƭɪɲ ʅυƭɦєɾ @MartinLuther_95]

None can believe how powerful prayer is, and what it is able to effect, but those who have learned it by experience. #Martinluther

[ɱʌɾƭɪɲ ʅυƭɦєɾ @MartinLuther_95]

I have so often deceived our Lord by promising to be upright and good, that I will promise no more... 1/2

[ɱʌɾƭɪɲ ʅυƭɦєɾ @MartinLuther_95]

...but will only pray when it shall please God to make me good. 2/2 #martinluther
