In this week’s installment from Off the Record with Martin Luther, Luther speaks about faith:

1285. Faith is a great thing, and that is well illustrated by the Psalms. I know that my faith is limp, like the arms of a fur coat, when it comes to my own work. But when it comes to God’s Word, my faith stands fast no matter how weak it is; it is certain and does not fail. The Church and its faith stand by us, and they do a lot. Faith and the Lord’s Prayer are great weapons against the devil. My little Lena and Hans also pray for me and many Christians.  (p. 406)
