Martin Luther in On Christian Liberty:
The first care of every Christian ought to be to lay aside all reliance on works, and strengthen his faith alone more and more, and by it grow in the knowledge, not of works, but of Christ Jesus, who has suffered and risen again for him.
It's not that works are not important, we are created for good works to be seen by others (Eph 2.10). It's just that these works must flow from the proper source.
