Martin Luther on faith

Even if I knew that tomorrow the world would go to pieces, I would still plant my apple tree.

When our Lord and Master Jesus Christ said, “Repent,” he willed the entire life of believers to be one of repentance.

Superstition, idolatry, and hypocrisy have ample wages, but truth goes a-begging.

Faith … is the art of holding on to things your reason has once accepted in spite of your changing moods.

C. S. Lewis1898–1963Mere Christianity, Book III, Chapter 11 “Faith” (1952)

Faith is taking the first step even when you don’t see the whole staircase.

Martin Luther King Jr.1929–1968

Faith is to believe what you do not see; the reward of this faith is to see what you believe.

Augustine of Hippo354–430Sermones 4.1.1
