Mondays with Marty

In this week's installment from Off the Record with Martin Luther, Luther reminds us of the way that God works:
1233. In comparison to the devil, we are nothing, like the seeds of the dandelion, which children blow away. Nevertheless, God triumphs over the devil through weakness [2 Corinthians 12:9]. (p. 254).

Mondays with Marty

In this week's installment from Off the Record with Martin Luther, Luther explains how he feels about dreams:
801.I have prayed to God for Him to spare me from dreams' they are deceitful and full of double meanings. He does not have to reveal to me any signs of supernatural powers; I cannot take on the responsibility of interpreting such things, nor is it necessary. for God has already given me His Word, which I now have. That is what I cling to, that is what I believe in. (p. 250).

Mondays with Marty

In this week's installment from Off the Record with Martin Luther, Luther describes the great exchange of the gospel:
5598. In regard to how a faithful soul should talk with Christ, Martin Luther said: I am Your sins, You are my salvation. Therefore I am joyful and without worry. For my sins have no power over your redemption, nor will Your salvation allow me to remain a sinner long. Praise be to God! Amen!  (p. 376).
