by Dr Martin Luther
Luther’s Works, Vol 9: “Lectures on Deuteronomy”
“You saw with your own eyes what the LORD did at Baal Peor. The LORD your God destroyed from among you everyone who followed the Baal of Peor.”
Deuteronomy 4:3, NIV
Part of Martin Luther’s explanation:
“Therefore, where there is no Word of God, there is no true knowledge of God; where there is no knowledge of God, there re good ignorance, imaginations, and opinions about the true God, as though He were pleased by this and that which we choose strictly for ourselves.”
