Quotation

by Dr Martin Luther

Luther’s Works, Vol 9: “Lectures on Deuteronomy”

Treatment of Deuteronomy 18:19:

“IF ANYONE DOES NOT LISTEN TO MY WORDS THAT THE PROPHET SPEAKS IN MY NAME, I MYSELF WILL CALL HIM TO ACCOUNT.”

Deuteronomy 18:19, NIV

Part of Martin Luther’s explanation:

“Let us remain in the pure doctrine and knowledge of Christ, knowing that the sum of our religion is this:  That faith in the Spirit is govern through the Word, that sin is left in the flesh and must be cleansed and that mortification should not be demanded as a achievement but as a process.”
