“I would advise no one to send his child where the Holy Scriptures are not supreme. Every
institution that does not unceasingly pursue the study of God’s word becomes corrupt…I greatly fear that the universities, unless they teach the Holy Scriptures diligently and impress them on
the young students, are wide gates to hell.” (Letter to the Christian Nobility, Luther)

"Unless I am convinced by Scripture and plain reason - I do not accept the authority of the

anything for to go against conscience is neither right nor safe. God help me. Amen.“
– Martin Luther
