“Unless you can convince me by Scripture and pure reason, and not by popes or councils who often contradict each other, unless I am so convinced I am wrong, I am bound by my beliefs to the text of the Bible. My conscience is captive to the word of God. To go against conscience is neither right nor safe. Therefore, I cannot and will not recant. Here I stand. I can do no other. God help me.” ~Martin Luther

1. When our Lord and Master, Jesus Christ, said “Repent,” He called for the entire life of believers to be one of repentance.
