What is a priest called in greek?

In Greek, a priest is called "ιερέας" (pronounced "ieréas"). This term is commonly used in both the Greek Orthodox Church and in other Christian denominations.

Why are some called Reverends and others are pastors?

It's a question of custom. In the Catholic and some protestant churches like the Anglican Churches where the sacramental role of the priest is seen as important, then their clergy are called priests, as priests are given authority to perform sacraments - such as baptism and being the president at the Catholic mass or the Anglican Holy Communion. Of course, the priest is also seen as a teacher, preacher and has a pastoral role, but the sacramental role is seen as the priest's major emphasis. In most of the other protestant churches, the sacramental role of the clergy is not seen as so important, and therefore the 'priest' title is seldom used. Instead, the pastoral, teaching and preaching role is seen as more important and therefore their clergy are referred to as 'pastors' or 'ministers' (from the idea 'to minister to' - meaning 'to take care of') instead. They are still 'priests' in the sacramental sense, as they can still baptise and preside at communion services, but their emphasis is not seen as being here but in the role of pastor instead. So, neither name 'minister/pastor' or 'priest' is wrong - it is just a matter of custom and where the church places the emphasis on the clergy role.


What is the difference between a sacramental marriage and a non-sacramental marriage?

Does the Deacon have the same authority as a priest to bless religious articles such as rosaries etc and to bless the home Do you pay the priest for the blessing?

Deacons have pretty much the same authority as priests when it comes to blessing items and homes. A gift to the priest or deacon that makes a special effort to come out and do you a favor is always a good thing, but it is never required. Charging for sacraments or sacramental is known as simony and is a very bad thing. In other words, you may offer something to the priest, but you may not "pay" him.
