LUTHER'S ARGUMENT WITH SATAN.

LUTHER says: “Once upon a time the devil said to me, ‘Martin Luther, you are a great sinner, and you will be damned.’ ‘Stop! stop!’ said I; ‘one thing at a time. I am a great sinner, it is true, though you have no right to tell me of it. I confess it. What next?’ ‘Therefore you will be damned.’ ‘That is not good reasoning. It is true I am a great sinner, but it is written, “Jesus Christ came to save sinners;” so, I shall be saved! Now go your way.’ So I cut the devil off with his own sword, and he went away mourning because he could not cast me down by calling me a sinner.’
