Lutherans are not dogmatic about the number of sacraments. Baptism and Holy Communion are sacraments within the Lutheran Church. Confession and Absolution is also often referred to as a sacrament.

What were the major similarities among the reform movements of Luther Zwingli and Calvin?

Both Luther and Zwingli got ideas from Erasmus on the need to reform the Church. They both were against the sale of indulgences. They both questioned traditional teachings like fasting, the worship of saints, pilgrimages, clerical celibacy, and the practice of certain sacraments. But Luther and Zwingli had different views on the Eucharist. Luther believed the Eucharist was the body and blood of Jesus Christ. Zwingli believed that the Eucharist was symbolically the body and blood. Their disagreement separated the Protestant movement theologically and politically, and different defense leagues formed.
