What is the closest religion to Lutheran?
For the orthodox evangelical [lutheran] church is really identical with the orthodox catholic church of all times. lutherans believe in consubstantiation that the presence of christ is in the bread and wine but it does not change substance. For this reason only catholics can receive the eucharist in the catholic church.Unlike the Roman Catholic Church, Lutherans do not believe the office of the papacy as such has any divine authority or that Christians need to submit to the Pope’s authority to be true members of the visible church. Differences remain about both the number and the nature of the sacraments.ANSWER: Lutherans believe that the Bible teaches that a person is saved by God’s grace alone through faith alone in Jesus Christ. Baptism, we believe, is one of the miraculous means of grace (together with God’s written and spoken Word) through which God creates the gift of faith in a person’s heart.Martin Luther, after whom the Lutheran branch of Christianity is named, wrote, “Faith is a living, daring confidence in God’s grace.
