Martin Luther Quotes
A person must take care to exercise moderate discipline over the body and subject it to the Spirit by means of fasting, vigils, and labor. The goal is to have the body obey and conform-and not hinder-the inner person and faith. Unless it is held in check, we know it is the nature of the body to undermine faith and the inner person.
