Martin Luther wrote an entire anti-Semitic book entitled, "The Jews and Their Lies".

"0 how they (Jews) love that book Esther, which so nicely agrees with their bloodthirsty, revengeful and murderous desire and hope! The sun never did shine on a more bloodthirsty and revengeful people as they who imagine to be the people of God who desire to and think they must murder and crush the heathen." - The Jews and Their Lies By Martin Luther

"The Luther seal or Luther Rose is a widely recognized symbol for Lutheranism. It was the seal that was designed for Martin Luther at the behest of John Frederick of Saxony in 1530, while Luther was staying at the Coburg Fortress during the Diet of Augsburg. Lazarus Spengler, to whom Luther wrote his interpretation below, sent Luther a drawing of this seal. Luther saw it as a compendium or expression of his theology and faith, which he used to authorize his correspondence. Luther informed Philipp Melanchthon on September 15, 1530, that the Prince had personally visited him in the Coburg fortress and presented him with a signet ring, presumably displaying the seal." - From Wikipedia

"We must not forget Christian Rosencreutz, the Refounder of the Rosicrucian Fraternity, which had previously been known as the Alchemists and Paracelsuians, and the powerful influence his works had on the reformation of the time."  - The Philosophy Of Fire By R. Swinburne Clymer pg. 47

"John Reuchlin, a famous Kabalist of the time and Counted as one of the most learned men of his day in Europe, was the friend and preceptor of Luther; and Luther's first public utterances were a course of lectures on the Philosophy of Aristotle. What effect the Rosicrucian Reformation had on Luther can only be judged from the fact that the private seal used by Luther was the Rose and the Cross, then a purely Rosicrucian symbol." - The Philosophy Of Fire By R. Swinburne Clymer pg. 47-48

"the Universal Reformation had accomplished one of its purposes: It had drawn to itself those who were truly ready to receive the Inner Training and the Mysteries of the Great Fraternity."- The Philosophy Of Fire By R. Swinburne Clymer pg. 48
