Luther: joy of the Bible

Oh how great and glorious a thing it is to have before one the Word of God. With that we may feel at times joyous and secure; we never be in need of consolation, for we see before us, in all its brightness, the pure and right way. He who loses sight of the word of God, falls into disrepair; the voice of heaven no longer sustains him; he follows only the disorderly tendency of his heart, and of world vanity, which lead him on to his destruction.


Tabletalk, Word of God, 20
