If the earth is fit for laughter then surely heaven is filled with it. Heaven is the birthplace of laughter.

Laughter, Heaven, Earth

Peter erred in life and in doctrine. Paul might have dismissed Peter's error as a matter of no consequence. But Paul saw that Peter's error would lead to the damage of the whole Church unless it were corrected. Therefore he withstood Peter to his face. The Church, Peter, the apostles, angels from heaven, are not to be heard unless they teach the genuine Word of God.

Angel, Errors, Heaven

Martin Luther (2007). “Commentary on Galatians”, p.20, Lulu.com

For God is wholly present in all creation, in every corner, he is behind you and before you. Do you think he is sleeping on a pillow in heaven? He is watching over you and protecting you.

Sleep, Thinking, Heaven

"Sermons".

People gave ear to an upstart astrologer who strove to show that the earth revolves, not the heavens or the firmament, the sun and the moon....This fool wishes to reverse the entire science of astronomy; but sacred scripture tells us [Joshua 10:13]that Joshua commanded the sun to stand still, and not the earth.

Moon, People, Heaven

I had rather be in hell with Christ, than be in heaven without him.

Christian, Heaven, Hell

When God creates faith in a man, that is as great a work as if He created heaven and earth all over again.

Men, Heaven, Earth

‎What you do in your house is worth as much as if you did it up in heaven for our Lord God. We should accustom ourselves to think of our position and work as sacred and well-pleasing to God, not on account of the position and work, but on account of the word and faith from which the obedience and work flow.

Thinking, House, Heaven

If anyone could have gained heaven as a monk, then I would indeed have been among them.

Heaven, Monk, Has Beens

For God does not want to save us by our own but by an extraneous righteousness, one that does not originate in ourselves but comes to us from beyond ourselves, which does not arise on earth but comes from heaven.

Faith, Heaven, Doe

Martin Luther (1961). “Lectures on Romans”, p.4, Westminster John Knox Press

One drop of Christ's blood is worth more than heaven and earth.

Blood, Heaven, Earth

For all works and things, which are either commanded or forbidden by God and thus have been instituted by the supreme Majesty, are 'musts.' Nevertheless, no one should be dragged to them or away from them by the hair, for I can drive no man to heaven or beat him into it with a club.

Men, Hair, Heaven

Martin Luther (1989). “Martin Luther's Basic Theological Writings”, Augsburg Fortress Publishing

I'd rather see heaven crash from the skies than one grain of God's truth die.

Sky, Heaven, Crash

When Jesus Christ utters a word, He opens His mouth so wide that it embraces all Heaven and earth, even though that word be but in a whisper.

Jesus, Heaven, Mouths

Martin Luther, Alexander Chalmers (1857). “The Table Talk of Martin Luther”, p.101

What is it to serve God and to do His will? Nothing else than to show mercy to our neighbor. For it is our own neighbor who needs our service; God in heaven needs it not.

Heaven, Needs, Mercy

It hath been said, that there is of nothing so much in hell as of self-will. The which is true, for there is nothing else there than self-will, and if there were no self-will, there would be no Devil and no hell. When it is said that Lucifer fell from Heaven, and turned away from God and the like, it meaneth nothing else than that he would have his own will, and would not be at one with the Eternal Will. So was it likewise with Adam in Paradise. And when we say Self-will, we mean, to will otherwise than as the One and Eternal Will of God willeth.

Mean, Self, Heaven

Someone asked Luther, "Do you feel that you've been forgiven?" He answered, "No, but I'm as sure As there's a God in Heaven!"

Heaven, Christianity, Luther

God does not save those who are only imaginary sinners. Be a sinner, and let your sins be strong (sin boldly), 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, ... are looking forward to a new heaven and a new earth where justice will reign.

Strong, Justice, Heaven

"Let Your Sins Be Strong". A Letter From Luther to Melanchthon, Letter no. 99, AUgust 1, 1521.

A man must be able to affirm, I know for certain, that what I teach is the only Word of the high Majesty of God in heaven, his final conclusion and everlasting, unchangeable truth, and whatsoever concurs and agrees not with this doctrine, is altogether false, and spun by the devil.

Men, Heaven, Devil

Martin Luther (1848). “The table talk or familiar discourse of Martin Luther, tr. by W. Hazlitt”, p.18

Heaven and earth, all the emperors, kings, and princes of the world, could not raise a fit dwelling-place for God; yet, in a weak human soul, that keeps His Word, He willingly resides.

Kings, Dwelling Place, Heaven

Martin Luther, Alexander Chalmers (1857). “The Table Talk of Martin Luther”, p.24

The whole Turkish empire is nothing else but a crust cast by Heaven's great Housekeeper to His dogs.

Dog, Heaven, Empires
