The Lutheran Church was formed out of the reforms of Martin Luther, a Roman Catholic priest of the 1500's. Catholic reforms have happened since within the Roman Church in response to the many reforms of the protestant Churches.

∙ 12y agosimilar, not the same. we believe in the death of Jesus Christ for the remission of our sins. We pray to the same God (Father, Son, and Holy Spirit) But catholics have more sacraments, purgatory, and pray to Mary and the Saints. Lutherans don't pray to Mary or the saints, believe that good works do nothing to get them closer to heaven and believe solely in heaven and hell, no purgatory

Difference between greek orthodox and Lutheran theology?
Nearly every doctrinal difference between the Lutheran and Eastern Orthodox Churches stem from two factors. 1. The Lutheran Church is a catholic, or western Church which shares its roots with the Roman Catholic Church. The forefathers of the modern Orthodox and the forefathers of the modern Roman Catholic and Lutheran Churches underwent the "Great Schism" in the first millennium over Trinitarian doctrine and 2. The Orthodox uphold Apostolic Tradition as a separate means of Church authority, while the Lutheran Church only accepts those tenets of Church Tradition which are upheld by the authority of the Canonical Scriptures. Both are liturgical, historic, sacramentarian Churches. During the Lutheran Reformation, there was much dialogue between the Greek Orthodox and Lutheran theologians as many of their grievances with Roman Catholicism are the same. There were some small, political and doctrinal issues which prevented any formal declaration of union or fellowship. Dialogue continues, and many of the differences between these two historic Churches are simply cultural.
