Martin Luther the Heretic!
The Following are only a very brief example of
Luther's outrageous remarks. Research it yourself and find hundreds more
he was also complaisant in the murder & torture of the Anabaptists in 1520's
Germany
Luther teaches: “Christ committed adultery first of all with the women at the well about whom St. John tell’s us. Was not everybody about Him saying: ‘Whatever has He been doing with her?’ Secondly, with Mary Magdalen, and thirdly with the women taken in adultery whom He dismissed so lightly. Thus even, Christ who was so righteous, must have been guilty of fornication before He died. (Sited from: Trish Reden Weimar Edition Vol2, pg107)
"Be a sinner, and let your sins be strong, but let your trust in Christ be stronger, and rejoice in Christ who is the victor over sin, death, and the world. We will commit sins while we are here, for this life is not a place where justice resides... No sin can separate us from Him, even if we were to kill or commit adultery thousands of times each day." (Sited from Letter #99 Paris, A. Picard, 1912-13), VOl. II, pg. 404)
"We should
throw out the Epistle of James from this school (Wittenberg) for it doesn't
amount to much. It contains not one syllable about Christ. Nor does it mention
Christ expect at the beginning. I maintain that some Jew wrote it who probably
heard about Christian people but never encountered any!"
(Sited from: LW-54 424-425)
"the
epistle of St. James is an epistle full of straw, because it contains nothing
evangelical" (Sited from:
'Preface to the New Testament,' ed. Dillenberger,
p. 19. - Cf. Also
Jean
Janssen, L’Allemagne et la Reforme. (Trans. E. Paris, Plon, 1887-1911). Vol II,
Pg. 218.)
Do not ask anything of your conscience; and if it speaks, do not listen to it; if it insists, stifle it, amuse yourself; if necessary, commit some good big sin, in order to drive it away. Conscience is the voice of Satan, and it is necessary always to do just the contrary of what Satan wishes." (Sited from: J. Dollinger, La Reforme et les resultants qu’elle a produits. (Trans. E. Perrot, Paris, Gaume, 1848-49), Vol III, pg. 248)
"If Moses attempt to intimidate you with his stupid Ten Commandments, tell him right out chase yourself to the Jews!" (Lecture at Wittenberg)
If you are a preacher of mercy, do not
preach an imaginary but the true mercy. If the mercy is true, you must therefore
bear the true, not an imaginary sin. God does not save those who are only
imaginary sinners.
Be a sinner, and let your
sins be strong, but let your trust in
Christ be stronger, and rejoice in Christ who is the victor over sin, death, and
the world. We will commit sins while we are here, for this life is not a place
where justice resides. We, however, says Peter (2. Peter 3:13) are looking
forward to a new heaven and a new earth where justice will reign. It suffices
that through God’s glory we have recognized the Lamb who takes away the sin of
the world. No sin
can separate us from Him, even if we were to kill or commit adultery thousands
of times each day. Do you think such
an exalted Lamb paid merely a small price with a meager sacrifice for our sins?
Pray hard for you are quite a sinner."
(Luther, Letter to Melanchthon, 1521.)
Where does the Bible teach such Heresy? Jesus said
"whoever Commits sin is a Slave of sin"
and Paul taught "you are a Slave to whom YOU
obey!" (Jn. 8:34 & Rom. 6:16) What this means is that Sinning leads to
Death, Not the Kingdom of God! "Go and Sin no
More" was Jesus declaration to the woman caught in Adultery in Jn. 8:11,
whereas, we find the Apostle Paul in Romans 6:1-2 saying,
"what shall we say then? Shall we continue in
sin that grace may abound? Certainly
not! How shall we who died to sin live any longer in it?" Don't
be Deceived! (1 Jn. 4:1) According to Scripture,
"you Reap what you Sow". (Gal. 6:7-8)
Jesus said,"whoever looks at a woman to lust
for her has already committed adultery
with her in his heart" and WARNED "If
your right eye causes you to sin, pluck it out and cast it from you;
for it is more profitable for you that
one of your members perish, than for your whole body to be cast into hell."
(Matt. 5:27-29). Likewise, it is Written that
"whoever hates his brother is a murderer, and you know that
no murderer has eternal life abiding in him." (1 Jn. 3:15) Luther
was WRONG and IF you follow him it will Cost you your soul!
"He who Sins if of the Devil", Not God! (1 Jn. 3:7-10) Luther taught a
FALSE Grace message! (Tit. 2:11-12 & Jude 3-4) Eternal Security is a Myth!
(Matt. 10:22 & Heb. 3:14) This man was a Heretic, Not a Saint. Wake up before
your time is up!
