	''Livets Bog'' ("The Book of Life") is Martinus's main work, in seven volumes. The first volume serves as an introduction to the whole work, covering the world situation, divine creative principles, evolution and the six basic energies; later volumes explore central themes such as thought and consciousness ("cosmic chemistry"), eternal life, sexuality and universal love, and cosmic world morality in depth. Volumes 1–5 have so far been published in English translation.<ref name="martinusdk-books" /><ref name="thirdtestament-lit" />		''[[Livets Bog]]'' ("The Book of Life") is Martinus's main work, in seven volumes.

	''The Eternal World Picture'' is a supplementary work of six volumes, containing roughly 100 colour symbols together with explanatory text. Martinus intended the symbols to give readers a visual, more directly accessible overview of the cosmic structure described in ''Livets Bog''. Volumes 1–4 (symbols 1–44) have been published in English; volumes 5–6 were compiled and published posthumously from his lectures and manuscripts.<ref name="martinusdk-books" /><ref name="thirdtestament-lit" />		''[[The Eternal World Picture]]'' is a supplementary work of six volumes, containing roughly 100 colour symbols together with explanatory text.

			'''Martinus' work''' is the body of books, symbols, articles and lectures that [[Martinus]] produced over nearly 60 years, from the 1920s until his death in 1981. He collectively titled this output '''The Third Testament''', a name expressing his view that it forms a further, spiritually scientific stage after the Old and New Testaments. The Third Testament comprises around 100 symbols and more than 10,000 pages of text.<ref name="martinusdk-books">Books, Martinus Institute, https://www.martinus.dk/en/books/</ref><ref name="thirdtestament-lit">Introducing all the books of The Third Testament, Third Testament, https://www.third-testament.info/literature</ref>
