Luther quotes


“In order not to slip or flutter about and go astray with one's own thoughts, a person should take hold of the letter of Scripture as one clings with one's hand to a tree or a wall. That's the trouble with our enthusiasts, they imagine that they will hit upon the truth with their high spiritual thoughts and do not see that without the Word they will get on the wrong track. They allow mere will-o'-the-wisps to mislead them.” Plass, 1:91, Exposition of June 17: 1, SL 8: 750
