Day by Day with Martin Luther

Read: 9:3-10:43 Luke 16:19-17:10 Proverbs 13:4

“Our Broken Will”

“ Do not be conformed to this world, but be transformed by the renewal of your mind, that by testing you may discern what is the will of God, what is good and acceptable and perfect.”
[Romans 12:2]

It is necessary for us to be careful not to follow the way of the world or our own reason and good opinions, but rather always to break our mind and will, and do and suffer otherwise than our reason and will assert, so that we are not transformed and renewed in our minds; that is, we daily more and more, cling to what the world and reason hate.
