Is a Lutheran a priest or Pastor?

Both. American Lutherans usually call their clerics "pastor." It is also common, while a little less common, for Lutheran a cleric to be called a "priest." In the European Lutheran countries, the term "priest" is almost always used to refer to the office while "Pastor" and "Father" are both common titles of respect (and "Mother" where the ordination of women is allowed.) "Pastor" means shepherd and refers to the all-encompassing nature of ministry and spiritual counsel. "Priest" tends to refer to the cleric's role as presider over sacraments, declarer of absolution and religious teacher of scripture and Church doctrine. So, both are appropriate. It depends on the country. The Lutheran churches of Scandinavia seem to use both "priest" and "pastor". However, in Australia and New Zealand, the term "priest" is never used, nor is "Father", but instead the term "Pastor" is used. "Priest" and "Pastor" are only used in reference to the Roman Catholic and the High Anglican churches. The formal name with the Lutheran church is "Reverend". Thus, one could refer to "Pastor Smith", "Reverend Smith" or even say "Reverend Smith is my pastor". The generic term is also "minister", i.e. a minister within the Lutheran church.

What is the difference between the Catholic and the Episcopalian Church?

In principle, there are very few differences. Episcopals are part of the Anglican Communion and thus adhere to Anglican rites (and retain such things from Catholicism as Apostolic succession, etc. which only some Lutherans do), but theologically they are so similar that in North America they have ecumenical agreements with each other such as CCM (called to common mission) and in Europe they have the Porvoo agreement. In Australia, however, there is essentially just one level of the Lutheran church, whereas the Anglican (i.e. equivalent of the American Episcopalian) is divided into 2 levels: "High Anglican" and "Low Anglican". The Lutheran church lies somewhere in between with its application of liturgy and the Sacrament. High Anglican in Australia is almost on a par with the Roman Cathloic church, with regard to its use of formalities, chanted liturgy, rites and ceremonies. "Low Anglican" is more liberal than the lutheran church in its beliefs.

What are the key differences between the Episcopal and Anglican denominations?

The key difference between the Episcopal and Anglican denominations is their organizational structure. The Episcopal Church in the United States is a self-governing province within the worldwide Anglican Communion. Anglicanism, on the other hand, refers to the broader global tradition of churches that are in communion with the Archbishop of Canterbury. While both denominations share common beliefs and practices, they have distinct governance and leadership structures.

What is an Anglican?

An Anglican is a member of The Anglican Communion which is a branch of Christianity that encompasses the Church of England and many other world-wide Churches which trace their spiritual succession back to the Archbishop of Canterbury. These member Churches are known as being a part of the "Anglican Communion" The Archbishop of Canterbury is the spiritual figurehead of the "Anglican Communion" and is based in 'The Church of England'. The Anglican Church was formally organized in 1539 when The Church in England became Independent from Rome under the reign of Henry VIII. The Anglican Church considers itself a "bridge Church" between Catholic and Protestant, being both and neither at the same time. The Anglican Church encompasses the traditions, rites, sacraments, and creeds of the ancient Holy Catholic Church which it is a part of, holding strong to the authority of the priesthood and necessity for bishops in apostolic succession. Yet, it also considers itself Protestant in that their is a significant "evangelical" or "protestant" faction within the Anglican Communion. The Anglican Communion has many different schools of thought, some are very Catholic (high Church) some are more Protestant (low church) and some are in between(broad church). The Book of Common Prayer is what holds all Anglicans together, it is the universal doctrine, discipline and liturgy for all Anglicans world-wide and it is what holds all Anglicans together, it is the foundation of the history of Anglicanism and it is the basis of Anglican worship. The central core of Anglican worship is the Celebration of the Holy Eucharist (the Mass, Lords Supper, Holy Communion) as it is believed to be truly the presence of Jesus Christ.

What are the types of Anglican churches?

As for the buildings - most types of Anglican church buildings are similar to other denominations - at one end there is a Communion table (called 'altar in RC churches) at which the bread and wine are shared during Communion services. In the same area is a communion rail where believers receive the bread and wine whilst kneeling. In addition there will be a pulpit fromwhere the sermon is preached, a lectern from where the Bible is read, a font for baptisms and a means of creating music -- usually an organ or a piano, or space for musicians. All Anglican churches have these common things - but some have them to a greater or less degree with regard to ornateness, size and so on. As for the types of churches (as bodies of people) then the Anglican Church is very broad. At one end, there are charmatic evangelical Anglicans whose worship is similar to the Pentecostal Church where gifts of the Spirit ( especially prophesy and speaking in tongues) are important. The style of worship will have modern music and there will be a great deal of arm waving and even liturgical dance. At the other extreme there is the Anglo-Catholic wing where the 'High Church' Anglican is more reminiscent of Roman Catholic worship where the use of older music, and a great deal of ceremony with incense, lavish robes and so on create a mysterious ambiene to accompany the worship. Within these two extremes are the majority of Anglican churches where traditional services (like Morning prayer, Evening prayer and Holy Communion) are common, and where there is, perhaps, a little of the two extremes in worship, but the use of charismatic liturgy or Roman ceremony is very limited or non-existent. Unlike some denominations, the Anglican Church is not split into further subdivisions that have little to do with one another. The international Anglican Church consists of local groups of churches (eg The Church of England, The Church in Wales, The Episcopal Church in the USA) all of which are in full communion with each other across the Anglican Church worldwide.

How many different types of Lutheranism are there?

One. The basis for doctrine is the same in all Lutheran jurisdictions an "synods." Some issues of difference arise amongst them along lines of "liberal" and "conservative" interpretations and applications of Biblical studies and of the Lutheran symbolical writings. In Australia, as in the US, there is just one Synod. However, there are a few scattered "breakaway" Lutheran churches whose differences exclude them from the common synod. Prior to 1966, there were two distinct synods in Australia.
