Martin Luther on Faith

“Faith is taking the first step, even when you're scared shitless and don't see the whole goddamn staircase.”

“The belief that God will do everything for man is as untenable as the belief that man can do everything for himself. It, too, is based on a lack of faith. We must learn that to trust God with the expectation that he will do everything while we do nothing, is not faith, but superstition.”
