Roman is an epithet first commonly used in England after the protestant revolt to describe the Catholic Church. It is never used by the Catholic Church. It is used because Christ's Vicar has been in Rome since St. Peter went there and was buried there. The Catholic Church was an institution founded by Christ for the salvation of souls. There are many rites of Catholic Church, all of which believe in the same things, but only differ in the way they do things. There is also the Byzantine Catholic Church, the Coptic Church, the Ethiopian Church etc. All of them are ONE CHURCH but have separate divisions. The Catholic Church is essentially built on Jewish belief, though not dependent on it. The Latin Rite Church (sometimes referred to {incorrectly} as the "Roman Rite") has incorporated whatever good things of Roman culture into it (eg. types of vestments)
First of all the Church in England was never a protestant Church! Up till about 1994, it was the Catholic Church in this country! How was different from other Churches? Because it had arrived in this country, Britain, only a few years after the death of Christ and having Aristobulous, mentioned by Paul in Romans as a first Bishop.
Yes and No. The Roman Catholic Church is not the Episcopal Church, However the Roman Catholic Church is an "episcopal" church. This means that it is a church that is governed by bishops. The term "episcopal" or "episkopos" is simply Greek for Bishop. The Episcopal Church is the American Branch of the Anglican Communion whose mother Church is the Church of England. The Church of England broke ties with the Roman Catholic Church in 1539 under the reign of King Henry VIII. It was later realigned with Rome under the reign of his daughter Mary (AkA Bloody Mary). After Mary's Death Elizabeth the Great took reign in England and the Church in England once again became independent of Rome, this time for good. This became known as The Church of England or The Anglican Church. After the American Revolution the Anglican Church in the United States became independent of the Church of England for obvious political reasons and changed the name to The Protestant Episcopal Church in the United States of America, aKa The Episcopal Church. Although the Episcopal Church and the Anglican Communion as a whole are no longer under the leadership of Rome, they retain apostolic succession through the 3 fold ministry of deacons priests and bishops. They also hold strong to the sacraments of Baptism and Holy Eucharist as being the central Sacraments of the Christian faith, necessary for all Christians to participate in. Those other Sacramental rites of the church inspired by the guidance of the Holy Spirit, Confirmation, Reconciliation, Matrimony, Ordination and Unction are also Sacramental but not necessary for all Christians in the same way that Baptism and Eucharist are.
Henry Vlll wanted to annul his marriage to Catherine of Aragon, so he need to split away from Catholicism and form his own religion. The founding of the Protestant religions was a reforming response to the abuses of the Catholic Church by members of its clergy at the time. The Church of England was created by the King of England to allow him to divorce his wife to marry another.
APEX: The Islamic Empire directly governed the people it controlled, but the Roman Catholic Church relied only on its influence with rulers.
I see a lot of domes on Orthodox churches but rarely see them on Catholic churches.
The core theological difference is Luther believed in salvation by faith alone and the Catholic Church believed in salvation by faith plus works.
The primary difference was that the Protestants argued that the ability to interpret the Bible rested with the individual believer and not the Church establishment. Therefore, the only thing that was relevant in knowing God was the Bible and not Church doctrines.
They didn't
Yes, the Lutheran Church did originate from the teachings of the Protestant reformer, Martin Luther. The Lutheran Church has many synods, or branches, with each differing slightly in belief. It is important to note that the Lutheran Church today may differ from some of Martin Luther's ideals, as he was one of many reformers or renewers of the Church. Martin Luther had concerns with the immoral practices occurring in the Roman Catholic Church during his time. Today the Roman Catholic Church has abandoned many of those practices.
