Had God Consulted Me…

Martin Luther’s Unique Thought

The reproduction of mankind is a great marvel and mystery. Had God consulted me in the matter, I should have advised him to continue the generation of the species by fashioning them out of clay.  (Martin Luther)

Obviously God chose a different way than shaping clay to form us and populate the earth. But as Psalm 139 declares, the Almighty still uniquely creates each of us.

For you created my inmost being;
you knit me together in my mother’s womb.

14 I praise you because I am fearfully and wonderfully made;
your works are wonderful,
I know that full well. (Psalm 139:13-14)
