What is the sacramentarian controversy?
The Sacramentarian Controversy was the first doctrinal dispute between Protestants, dividing the Zwinglians from the Lutherans.
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.
What the differences between Anglicanism and Lutheranism?
Not much other than the history of the respective church bodies. In almost every continent, there are agreements of fellowship between the two Churches, namely the Porvoo Agreement in Europe and CCM (Called to Common Mission) in North America. The Lutheran Church came out of the conservative theolocal reforms of Martin Luther and his fellow reformers during the 1500's. The Anglican Church traces is history to the reforms which followed in England later during that same century. Both are liturgical, sacramentarian Churches neither of which accepted the Primacy of the bishop of Rome, who is accepted as the infallible leader (pope) of the Roman Catholic Church. Both Churches are headed by world coucils of bishops (aside from a few small juristictions which call their "bishops" by other titles, such as ecclesial "distric presidents" or something similar.) In some parts of the world, the Aglicans have absorbed some Calvinist influences which Lutherans, on the whole, reject. Anglicans are a bit more concerned with "Apostolic Succession" as a fundamental necessity than are some Lutheran synods.
What are the similarties between Catholics and Lutherans?
The namesake of the Lutheran Church is Martin Luther, a Roman Catholic monk who lived in Germany in the medieval era. He questioned Church authority on a few matters during his day which became the dividing factors between the two Churches. The Roman Catholic Church and the Lutheran Church have many similarities. Both are theologically sacramentarian, both are historic and liturgical Churches (follow the order of the mass and the liturgical calendar), and both have episcopal forms of Church governance (while the Lutheran Church employs some congregational polity.) The Lutheran reformation, along with the Anglican reformation, was a "conservative reformation" unlike the Reformed movement, which is why the Lutheran and Anglican/Episcopal Churches more closely resemble the Roman Catholic Church, in belief and practice, than they do protestant Churches. Some Lutherans do not believe that the term "protestant" appropriately describes the Lutheran Church, due to implied associations with the Reformed and "Evangelical" Churches. While the Lutheran Church is not Roman Catholic, it is catholic. Some high church jurisdictions go by the label "Evangelical Catholic." The cardinal doctrine of the Lutheran Church is that salvation is by the grace of God alone and that man can do nothing to save himself by his own works; and that good works are the fruits of salvation, not a means to attaining it. Faith is the vehicle of that grace and is awarded as a grace from God himself. Thus, the mantra of Lutheran theology that the means of salvation is: "Sola gratia. Sola fide." (Latin for "only by grace through faith.") In 1999, the Lutheran World Federation and representatives of the Roman Catholic Church officially signed a joint declaration stating, "By grace alone, in faith in Christ's saving work and not because of any merit on our part, we are accepted by God and receive the Holy Spirit, who renews our hearts while equipping us and calling us to good works." The Lutheran and Roman Catholic Churches continue ecumenical dialogues, but have been unable to totally agree on some matters of faith. Despite those theological differences, the two Churches continue to work together on charitable and humanitarian efforts throughout the world.
What is the difference between Baptist and Lutherans?
Both of these religions worship the same God, believe in the same God and sing hymns of praises, teach from the Bible, etc. The primary differences are in how these things are taught. There are differences in the manner in which Holy Communion is offered, too ... the Baptists use grape juice and the Lutheran's use actual wine, both of which are acceptable in the Christian community at large. The dogma's of these churches are different, too. The worship service of a Lutheran parish is usually filled with many "rituals" and sung liturgies, whereas the Baptist parish service appears lots less formal and without all the "bells and smells" of a liturgical service. In essence: For Lutherans baptism is a means of grace and the mode of application is not important, but is usually delivered by the sprinkling of water. There is no proper age for baptism, as the work in baptism is seen to be God's, thus infants are baptized as soon as possible. The only necessities for a valid baptism are "water and the Word;" and baptisms must be performed in the trinitarian formula (in the name of the Father, the Son, and the Holy Spirit.) Adults previously 'unbaptized' also receive this. Godparents make a vow to spiritually nurture a baptized infant in his faith until he "affirms" a role in his own faith in the vows of his confirmation. Baptism itself in likened to adoption, where God claims the child. For Baptists, baptism is a testimony of a preceding act of repentance and the acceptance of Christ as a personal Saviour. It is administered by full immersion as symbolic of the total washing away of sins. Only persons of an age to decide this for themselves and make a personal decision can be considered saved. If you had been baptized in a Lutheran Church as a baby you would be considered unbaptized in a Baptist context. Another difference is the official doctrine of what the bread and wine represent in Communion. Lutherans hold to the idea that the elements actually are the body and blood of Christ (although not going as far as the Transubstantiation of the Roman Catholic church). Baptists regard them as a symbolic representation of the body and blood. Lutherans have a stricter code of interpretation of the Bible based on the distinction of "Law and Gospel" and do not allow for personal revelations on salvific matters, while some Baptists tend to stress a more experiential relationship on matters of faith. As a historic and confessional Church, Lutherans are liturgical in worship and follow the order of the Mass. Baptists tend to be less formal in worship style. Lutherans are also sacramentarian in theology and worship. This accounts for many of the differences in belief and worship. Both Baptism and Holy Communion are, for Lutherans, sacraments and means of grace working towards sanctification and justification and hold a high place in worship. Baptists also observe the sacraments, but tend to be more commemorative than sacramentarian.
How are the Lutheran's different from other Christian denominations?
Both Lutherans and Baptists are churches of the reformation. Generally, Lutherans are much more structured, while Baptists are more independent. In fact, there are as many differences between different Baptist denominations are there are between Baptists and Lutherans. Some differences between Baptists and Lutherans include:Baptism doctrineFor Lutherans, baptism is a sacrament and a means of grace. The mode of application in a Lutheran baptism is not important and it is usually delivered by the pouring or sprinkling of water while it is, nevertheless, considered a total spiritual washing and rebirth. There is no proper, awaited age for baptism, as the work in baptism is seen to be God's, thus infants are baptized as soon as possible. The only necessities for a valid baptism are "water and the Word;" and baptisms must be performed in the trinitarian formula (in the name of the Father, the Son, and the Holy Spirit.) Adults previously 'unbaptized' also receive this. Godparents make a vow to spiritually nurture a baptized infant in his faith until he "affirms" a role in his own faith in the vows of his confirmation, which is more accurately called "Affirmation of Baptism." Baptism itself in likened to birth or adoption, where God gives new life and claims the child.For Baptists, baptism is a testimony of a preceding act of repentance and the decided, personal acceptance of Christ as a personal Saviour, Baptism is not a requirement to be saved, but is an act of obedience. Baptist baptism is administered by full immersion as symbolic of the total washing away of sins. Only persons of an age to decide this for themselves and make a personal decision can be considered saved. If you had been baptized in a Lutheran Church as a baby you would be considered unbaptized in a Baptist context. Therefore if, as a Lutheran, you wished to formally join a Baptist church, they would require that you be baptised. For Lutherans, one Baptism is all that is ever needed - even if a person strays from the church, then returns.Holy CommunionAnother difference is the official doctrine of what the bread and wine represent in Communion. Lutherans hold to the idea that the elements actually and truly are the body and blood of Christ - known as the "True Presence" - (although not going as far as the "Transubstantiation" explanation of the Roman Catholic church).Some Baptists regard them as a symbolic representation of the body and blood, while other "fundamental" Baptists believe everything in the Bible as literal including communion. Children in the Baptist church are permitted to participate from a young age if they are considered to have reached the age of accountability and accepted Christ as their own Saviour. Typically, within the Lutheran church, a period of specific instruction is required before a young person receives their 'first communion," and is allowed to fully partake in Holy Communion. Religious instruction continues with catechism classes until the instructed undergo their "Confirmation," a rite of passage in which the confirmands are given full responsibility for their own faith life. In some smaller, North American synods of Lutheranism, only after Confirmation, are youth allowed to commune. THis is also the standard practice in Australia.Other differencesAs an historic and confessional Church, Lutherans are liturgical in worship and follow the order of the Mass, though usually (especially outside Europe) without the formality of the Roman Catholic Church. Lutheran liturgy, by principle, is not chanted in Latin, but is expressed in a common language understood by all. Baptists tend to be less formal in worship style. Lutherans are also sacramentarian in theology and worship. This accounts for many of the differences in belief and worship. Both Baptism and Holy Communion are, for Lutherans, sacraments and means of grace working towards sanctification and justification and hold a high place in worship. Since Baptists believe that only acceptance of Christ as a personal Saviour is necessary for salvation, Baptists typically observe the same "sacraments," but tend to be more commemorative than sacramentarian.
What are similarities and differences of Orthodoxy and Catholicism?
There are two kinds of differences between Catholicism and Eastern Orthodoxy; doctrinal, and non-doctrinal (traditions, e.g.) The primary doctrinal difference is that Eastern Orthodoxy does not acknowledge the Pope as the head of the Church. Since the Great Schism in the 11th century, Eastern Orthodoxy -- though it is very hierarchical -- has no single head of the organization. They regard the Patriarch of Constantinople as being First Among Equals. A second difference regards the procession of the Holy Spirit. Catholicism says that He proceeds from the Father AND the Son. Eastern Orthodoxy (and some Eastern Catholics) say that He proceeds ONLY from the Father. The issue regards the co-equality of Holy Spirit within Holy Trinity, and the interpretation of Holy Bible passages. There are some other differences -- the Immaculate Conception, e.g. -- but I am not aware whether this is a doctrinal difference. As for non-doctrinal difference, perhaps the most "obvious" one is that Eastern Orthodox priests can be married. However, this is a difference with Catholicism. Eastern Rite Catholic priests can also be married, although they must do so before ordination as must Orthodox priests. Personally I belong to the Byzantine Rite of Eastern Catholicism, in the Ukrainian Catholic Church. We are in full accord with Rome, as are all Eastern Catholics. Across the street from our parish is an Ukrainian Orthodox Church. If you attended a Divine Liturgy (Eastern version of "Mass") at my Church, and then went to a service across the street, you would not be able to detect ANY differences, unless you were fluent in Ukrainian and Old Slavonic, AND were familiar with The Divine Liturgy. E.g., we make about an half-dozen offerings of prayer for the Pope, which of course would not be present in the Orthodox service. One of the most significant doctrinal similiarities is Apostolic Succession. As the Holy Father recently stated, the Orthodox do have this and, as such, are also able to consecrate the Sacraments, which is also the function of Catholic priests. So, e.g. if a person were in a town on Sunday which had no Catholic churches, it would actually be permissible -- even required -- for to attend an Orthodox Church if there is one there! Answer Similarities between Catholic + Orthodox * The Trinity: Father, Son and Holy Spirit. * The Father is the Creator, the Son the Redeemer and the Holy Spirit the Sanctifier * Christ is the sole Saviour of the human race. * Christ suffered, died, rose from the dead and ascended into heaven. * Mary is the Theotokos (God bearer) as Christ is God incarnate. * The Bible is the inspired word of God. * The Holy Spirit dwells in the Church and guides it through the ages (tradition). * The three-fold ministry of bishop, priest and deacon. * The importance of Apostolic Succession. * Seven sacraments: Baptism, Confirmation/Chrismation, Eucharist, Holy Orders, Matrimony, Anointing of the Sick. * That Christ is truly present - not symbolically - in the Eucharistic species. * That the saints deserve due honour because of their fidelity to Christ. * That Mary, being Theotokos, is the greatest of the saints. * That we may ask the saints for prayers, just as we may ask any person for prayers. * That the use of religious icons is acceptable and thought helpful in the spiritual life. * The use of such things as incense, vestments and ceremony are important as human beings are people of ritual. Differences (Theological) * Catholicism accepts the Bishop of Rome as spiritual leader of the Church. The Orthodox look to the Patriarch of Constantinople, but only as "First Among Equals" rather than as a pope. * Catholicism holds that the Holy Spirit proceeds from both Father and Son whilst Orthodoxy teaches that the Spirit proceeds only from the Father. * Catholicism states that Mary was full of grace (i.e. sinless) from conception whilst Orthodoxy would tend to say that she entered this state only after accepting God's wish that she become Theotokos. * Catholicism tends to be prescriptive whilst Orthodoxyis mystical e.g. both believe in the Real Presence of Christ in the Eucharist; yet, Catholicism would say that this occurs during a particular moment of the Eucharistic Prayer whilst Orthodoxy would say that the whole Prayer is consecratory and all we know is that Christ is present by the time the people sing the Great Amen. Differences (Non-theological) * National Orthodoxchurches are virtually independent, whilst in Catholicismthe Vatican can step in when it feels it is appropriate. * Married men may be ordained as Orthodox priests (but not bishops) whilst in Catholicism only single men may be ordained (though this ban does not apply to Eastern Rite Catholics). * Organisationally, the Orthodox Churches allow the laity more power in terms of decision-making than Catholicism e.g. in choosing pastors or bishops. * In Catholicism, bishops are ultimately chosen by the pope, whilst in Orthodoxy (and Eastern Rite Catholicism) they are chosen by laity, clergy and bishops. * In Orthodoxy a bishop governs his diocese with his synod whilst in Catholicism the bishop is only advised by his Council of Priests. * The style of worship in Orthodoxy is more elaborate than in Latin Catholicism; the form of worship is almost identical between Orthodoxy and Easter Rite Catholics.

What is the difference between Lutheranism and Catholicism?
Differences between Catholics and Lutherans. The Catholic Church is a Sacramental Church and always has been. There are 7 Sacraments,Baptism,Reconciliation,Communion,Confirmation,Marriage,Holy Orders,Sacrament of the Sick. There are two in the Lutheran Church, Baptism and Confirmation.The Catholic Church believes in Transubstantiation. That is when consecrated by a priest the bread and wine while having the appearance of bread and wine is actually changed into the body and blood of Christ, it is no longer bread and wine. This is a mystery of faith and follows Christs command "Unless you eat my flesh and drink my blood, you will not have life within you." Catholics do not believe it is symbolic. When Christ told this to his disciples and they said who can believe this it is too hard to follow and they left, Christ did not go after them and say, wait I only meant it was symbolic. No he let them go and asked his apostles if they too would go.Lutherans believe in Consubstantiation. That is, they believe it is the body and blood of Christ;and it still is bread and wine.The Catholic Church is one, holy, and Apostolic. The Lutheran Church follows the same creed but there are various denominations within the Lutheran Church which vary on some of their beliefs. Some are stricter and some such as the ELCA accept women ministers and abortion under certain circumstances. The original Lutheran church which was born out of the protestant reformation does not even exist today. Almost from the beginning there was disagreemet among it's members and offshoots formed.The Catholic Church has not changed it's doctrines and cannot. Despite the fact that almost every denomination has changed doctrinal belief to bow to the whim of the current ages, the Catholic Church alone has remained steadfast in spite of constant critisim. It will not change because it can't. What Christ has established cannot be broken or changed. The Holy Spirit has guided it through the ages and has helped to better define doctrines, but not change them. No human, not even the Pope can do that.AnswerCatholics believe that love, faith, kindness, etc. are what give us eternal life, however Lutherans believe that you only need faith. Also Lutherans believe that Christ is the only authority in the church and Catholics believe the pope is. Everything else is basically the same. Another view: It is not correct to suggest that Catholics believe that the pope is the 'only' authority, or that the pope's position is above that of Christ. The Catholic church considers the pope to be Christ's earthly representative only, and in fact the 'first among equals' regarding his position among the church's bishops.AnswerThe catholic and Lutheran Churches have different views on the eucharistic rite. the Catholics believe that the body of christ is revealed to us by the method of transubstination. this term refers to the bread and wine changing from one substance into another. bread to body. blood to wine.the lutherans rejects such teachings.AnswerMartin Luther believed that God had only set four sacraments to be followed by the church. On the other hand the church believed that all 7, were essential in the religion, as well as forgiving peoples sins with money. Lutherans don't have a "leader" while the catholic church does. AnswerCatholics were the first christians, the first followers of Christ. Jesus charged Peter to be the rock on which He will build his church, a mere mortal man to head His church here on earth. He was followed by those we would call Pope. It is true that the catholic church did prostitute itself in selling off sins for moneys much needed for the church. Also,Popes began to dabble in politics instead of souls. Martin Luther took great exception to the workings of the church at the time of his era and chose to break away with his fellow discontented followers. They did hold to many of the catholic ways but adjusted to their thinking those which they disagreed. They grew as more converts disgrunted with the catholic church joined their ranks. I am catholic and not very proud of those many dark years of the church, yet I remain catholic. I have attended Lutheran services on several occassions and was surprised at the similarities between the two. Les HeadlineYour answer is partly correct. The term catholic (lower case 'c') simply means universal. Because Rome was in power during the time of Christ and Constaintine later converted to Christianity and named it the state religion, the term Roman Catholic came about. However the first Christians were certainly not Romans nor known as Catholics. In fact the early Christians faced sever persecution from the Romans until the time of Constaintine. Now regarding Luther: He did take exception to the selling of indulgences and the proclamation of the pope that he could release souls from purgatory (which in itself has no Scriptural standing, but he had no intention of "breaking away" from the church. When Luther wrote his 95 thesis and posted them on the door of the church in Wittenberg, his hope was to engage in a debate with the church leaders so that the church may be reformed--hence the term The Reformation. Because Luther's stance was rejected by the church, and his life threatened, Luther did break from the church.There are many more differences than what are listed here and in the other responses. Lutherans have only 2 sacraments, not 4 or 7: Holy Communion and Baptism. Lutherans hold Christ as the head of the Church and confess that we are under the authority of Scripture. We are saved by grace alone through faith in Christ. Our works are a result of our salvation , not a means by which we attain it. We believe that Jesus in the only intercessor and mediator between God and man and that praying to Mary or the saints is not Biblically based and is not pleasing to God. I could continue writing on this subject, but I would suggest doing a search for the "Book of Concord" which contains the Lutheran confessions and Catechisms.AnswerThere isn't really much difference. Luther didn't think the selling of indulgences was right, and wanted everyone to be able to read the bible. Other than that, he was pretty mainstream. AnswerWhen I was Lutheran,as my family raised me, they believed that you were saved when you were baptised, when you were a baby (sprinkled with water) now that I am nondenominational, I believe in salvation through understanding and believing Christ, and I was baptised by being emmersed in water which is not necessary for salvation, but God asks this of you, which symbolizes the new birth. I grew up Lutheran. What I do remember was our branch of Christianity had more exceptions to rules and (in my opinion) the faith was simpler. I went to a Greek Orthadox and Roman Catholic churches for Catechism trips, and I remember thinking it was very strict.They believe in the same teachings, but Lutherans don't take them as literally as Catholics. And, we did have four sacrements. whoever keeps saying that Lutherans only have two is...wrong.
What are some similarities between Quakers and Catholics?
== == In reponse to the question "What are the similarities..." the following is a list of seven doctrines on which Catholicism and Seventh Day Adventism agree; the list is not exhaustive. Quotes are from the official website of the Adventist Church and various official Catholic Church texts. 1. The Holy Scriptures are God's word: "The Holy Scriptures, Old and New Testaments, are the written Word of God, given by divine inspiration through holy men of God who spoke and wrote as they were moved by the Holy Spirit" (Adventist website) "For holy mother Church… holds that the books of both the Old and New Testaments in their entirety, with all their parts, are sacred and canonical because written under the inspiration of the Holy Spirit, they have God as their author." (Dei Verbum 11) 2. The Trinity: Three persons in One God:"There is one God: Father, Son, and Holy Spirit, a unity of three co-eternal Persons. God is immortal, all-powerful, all-knowing, above all, and ever present."(Adventist website) "Christians are baptized in the name of the Father and of the Son and of the Holy Spirit: not in their names, for there is only one God, the almighty Father, his only Son and the Holy Spirit: the Most Holy Trinity".(Catechism 233) 3. Humanity is made in the Divine Image "Man and woman were made in the image of God with individuality, the power and freedom to think and to do" (Adventist website) ."Being in the image of God the human individual possesses the dignity of a person, who is not just something, but someone…and he is called by grace to a covenant with his Creator, to offer him a response of faith and love that no other creature can give in his stead" (Catechism 357) 4. Christ is Saviour"In Christ's life of perfect obedience to God's will, His suffering, death, and resurrection, God provided the only means of atonement for human sin, so that those who by faith accept this atonement may have eternal life, and the whole creation may better understand the infinite and holy love of the Creator" (Adventist website) "Christ's death is both the Paschal sacrifice that accomplishes the definitive redemption of men, through "the Lamb of God, who takes away the sin of the world", and the sacrifice of the New Covenant, which restores man to communion with God by reconciling him to God through the "blood of the covenant, which was poured out for many for the forgiveness of sins." (Catechism 613) "The Paschal mystery has two aspects: by his death, Christ liberates us from sin; by his Resurrection, he opens for us the way to a new life" (Catechism 654) 5. Sacrament of Baptism "By baptism we confess our faith in the death and resurrection of Jesus Christ, and testify of our death to sin and of our purpose to walk in newness of life. Baptism is a symbol of our union with Christ, the forgiveness of our sins, and our reception of the Holy Spirit." (Adventist website) "Through Baptism we are freed from sin and reborn as children of God; we become members of Christ, are incorporated into the Church and made sharers in her mission (Catechism 1213) and "By Baptism all sins are forgiven…In those who have been reborn nothing remains that would impede their entry into the Kingdom of God." (Catechism 1263) 6. Sacrament of Holy Communion "The Lord's Supper is a participation in the emblems of the body and blood of Jesus as an expression of faith in Him, our Lord and Saviour. In this experience of communion Christ is present to meet and strengthen His people. As we partake, we joyfully proclaim the Lord's death until He comes again." (Adventist website)"Father, we now celebrate this memorial of our redemption. We recall Christ's death, his descent among the dead, his resurrection, and his ascension to your right hand; and, looking forward to his coming in glory, we offer you his body and blood, the acceptable sacrifice which brings salvation to the world" (Eucharistic Prayer IV) 7. Spreading the Gospel "We join together for worship, for fellowship, for instruction in the Word, for the celebration of the Lord's Supper, for service to all mankind, and for the worldwide proclamation of the gospel." (Adventist website) "Since this mission goes on and in the course of history unfolds the mission of Christ Himself, who was sent to preach the Gospel to the poor, the Church, prompted by the Holy Spirit, must walk in the same path on which Christ walked." (Ad Gentes 5) In addition the structure of the Adventist church is hierarchical, with the General Conference President comparable to the Pope and Division, Union and Conference presidents corresponding to Cardinals, Archbishops and Bishops. The Adventist church claims to be a democracy, but candidates in church elections are preselected by the organisation (nominated) and decisions are tightly controlled from the higher levels. Clergy are appointed to local churches without consultation with the members of those churches and sometimes over the opposition of members. (The situation is different in some parts of north America and Australia, where a few churches have enforced their own choices by withholding tithe payments to the conference until their wishes are met. This is not the case in Britain and the rest of the world.)-------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------- Additional Answer:We are all created in God's imag.It may be pointed out that the founders of the Adventist church were non-Trinitarian, adopting an Arian position. The church has been firmly Trinitarian since the late 1800s and the Pantheistic Controversy with Dr John Kellogg. It is true to say, however, that individual members of the Adventist church - like individual members of other Christian denominations - do not always understand the doctrine of the Trinity; some believe in a form of Modalism while others are Tri-theists.Unfortunately there is a growing movement in the church to revert to the Arian views of its founders. It remains to be seen how this movement will fare.Trinitarianism: One God; three distinct personsTri-theism: Three God Beings, one in purposeMonotheism: One Being, One God, One Personality, there is non other == == == == == ==
