Well, let me answer this question. The priests are not allowed to marry.
This is not based on the Bible. It is based on the economy. In the schismatic churches, Greek Orthodox, Russian Orthodox, who have a valid sacrament of the priesthood and the priest is allowed to marry before ordination. If his wife dies may not remarry. The priest may choose to be celibate in churches too. Protestant means to protest. In the Protestant faiths, which number in the hundreds, ordered his ministers, they are allowed to marry. Only two Protestant churches that are similar to the Catholic faith. They are the Church of England and the Lutheran Church. These churches do not have a valid priesthood or sacraments. The ban on marriage
also extends to the nuns, sisters and brothers.
Protestant denominations have some differences in how the preform, and so do the communion
Anglicans are trapped in the kind of Catholics and Protestants. Are very similar to the Catholics, except the Pope is not the head of the church, can make women priests and the priests can marry, and the confession did not really happen the way that the Catholic Church. Nor is there rose in the Anglican church.
My mother and my boyfriend's mother was raised in the Irish Catholic family. Both married men and Anglicans Anglican reared their children. When my boyfriend was a boy his mother decided to become Anglican, when I was about 11 decided to become Anglican mother and even considered studying to become a priest. It was not really a big change for the better of them. Because my family and my boyfriend is half the family have gone to Catholic Catholic events. Whole things are different from the majority is the same and has not been a big problem going to a Catholic mass
Given my mother and mother in law suggested I consider the experience Anglican denomination.
Protestant originally meant to testify in public.
Schnoodles right is just about the Protestant Church of England. Before Henry VIII wanted to divorce her, and Martin Luther nailed his theses on the door. As a matter of fact, Henry Luther denounced so virulent that the Pope gave him the title Defender of the Faith The English monarch still holds the title granted by a pope, when in fact the English monarch is the head of a church does not recognize the Pope as a little larger than the bishop of Rome.
Basically, since there are so many different doctrines of Protestantism, as there are sects, the major difference between Catholics and Protestants is that Protestants believe the Bible is the sole source of his religion, while Catholics believe in Bible and the traditions which are transmitted by word of mouth. Paul in the Bible even says, "and we have written and what they have taught," that Catholics used to prove his point.
The Bible-worship stricter Protestants also tend to forget that until the last one hundred years, most people could not read, so they are effectively saying that each of them rot in hell for lack of literacy .
Catholics also believe that the church is a living thing that can change and grow like any living thing. A pope to make a declaration of "the priests are not married" is proof of that - it was centuries after Christ before it is proclaimed. More logical that people realize that the church was to protect the loss of land and property in case of a married priest died and left his estate to his widow or children.
Some Christian churches have expelled Catholic sacraments and rituals together, but have incorporated practices of other religions in place (such as Baptists, baptismal ceremony and spirit very similar to the Vodoun possession and other derivatives of the religions of Africa). Others, like the American version of the Church of England, Episcopalians, are so similar to those Catholics who know what to say in the communion of their services, since it is almost exactly the same.
All Christian churches, however, Catholic, Protestant, Orthodox, or have in common the belief that Christ died and rose again in atonement for the sins of the believers so that they can have eternal life.
EDIT: RE - The Eucharist. Only the Catholic Church has this. "
Not true. The Episcopal Church celebrates the Eucharist at every service and that is almost word for word the same as a Catholic. Biggest difference is that there is a communal prayer for the confession, with the option of seeing a priest, if you want a confession before taking communion. Catholics must make a confession with a priest.
Catholic priests can be married. ie, in the sense that men can get married ordered, but ordered and the men can not marry. If a woman dies of a priest can not marry. It is part of the vote to accept * * when they become a priest. It is based on the fact that the New Testament often speaks of the virtue of chastity, and that an unmarried man / woman can direct all focus on God.
Protestantism is very different from Catholicism. Their views on the rationale, beyond, the church authority, will, etc, all different. One big difference (to start) is that there is "a Protestant church as a Catholic Church there. There are thousands and thousands of Protestant denominations, each with its own making.
This stems from the fact that Catholicism is historically proven to be the first Christian church. The first written use of the word "Catholic" to describe it (which still survives) was San Ignacio in 107AD. The division of the Protestant churches started off 1400 years later, in the 16th century.
No.
If there are certain things you do not agree with, you must discover why the Catholic Church teaches that the way instead of trying to find a religion that suits you.
It is supposed to conform to God, not vice versa, which is what you are doing to decide you do not like aspects of Catholicism, so you'll just find another church that loves.
Main difference between Protestant and Catholic beliefs:
- The Eucharist. Only the Catholic Church has this.
- Apostolic. Only the Catholic Church can trace their predecessors, back to the Apostles, without breaks.
- Truth. The Catholic Church has the fullness of truth, being a Protestant, you are given part of that Truth.
- The Bible. The Catholic Church has the whole Bible, the Protestant churches no longer believe in 7 books and Sola Scriptura, which is wrong and against the Bible.
I will give a short answer to your statement that you do not agree, but I ask you my e-mail with their other problems, I'll go with you through them.
As to why the Catholic Church says that priests can not marry his: As already married. I have known priests who have been insulted by people saying that there should be a woman, because the Church is his wife. The priest has a vote in their management are very similar to the vows, and many priests are married to the Church.
It is also difficult for families. A 1988 study showed that 55% of Protestant pastors ministers would not be if they had been married in the first place because it is so stressful on the family. They must share their husband and father, with hundreds of people. Your first call should always be to God and his Church, not his family.
The Catholic Church wants to protect sancity of the family and therefore do not want to suffer this way. It is one of the main reasons for the celibate priesthood.
You should also remember that the priests were moved around to get a little sometimes. The family must also leave everything behind and go back to adjust because they have to follow their husband / father 's calling. Sometimes, these priests get to endanger the land where Christianity is not accepted and some die. Stress in the family is incredible and the Catholic Church does not want that.
For many priests who have a family. This is us. His parish is your family and they would like any other way.
And remember, a man does not have to be a priest. He gives the marriage of a woman by the Kingdom of God willingly, he is never obliged to do so.
But, please send an email with your concerns, I would like to discuss with you.
Wow.
Protestants have their name of "protest" against the Catholics of the time.
There are many differences and marriage is one of them. Many Protestant denominations permit the marriage of priests and pastors.
In my opinion, Catholicism is more a cult than a Christian denomination.
schnoodles has its answer in a box of Cracker Jack, a box of Cracker Jack Catholic.
The marriage of a priest (Protestant) was accepted when Martin Luther married.
But if that's your only problem. The Catholic Church is considering the request regarding priestshttp: / / http://www.msnbc.msn.com/id/29835094/
The Roman Catholic Church has a leader.
Protestant denominations have different rules and a changing church to another, based on his pastor
Catholics believe in the affirmation of their faith through the sacraments throughout his life.
Protestants do not
Catholics believe that faith and good works salvation
Protestants believe through faith alone
Most Protestant denominations are very different from Catholicism.
First, what everyone calls Protestantism has existed some 300 years before the Catholic Church did. History has been revised to say otherwise, but the first non-Catholic Christians. They do not believe in anything that resembles the Catholic priesthood, the office of the pope, and prayer to saints and Mary. There was no purgatory, and the whole crowd of curious traditions and rituals known only to Catholics.
However, the Catholic Church gave rise to power, but by the end of 1400 the people began to protest publicly against their teachings. Hence the word Protestant. The movement was born that was not new, but rather it is a formal return to Biblical Christianity.
Some of the things between the two are the same though. Protestants believe in the Trinity ~ Father, Son and Holy Spirit. Believe that Jesus was born of a virgin and was crucified and resurrected from the dead.
But our beliefs about how we came to Christ, we confess our sins, how and why we are forgiven, and how the sky is completely different from what the Catholic Church teaches.
I was raised Catholic until I was 15 years, and then I went and started to go to Protestant churches since then.
That was long ago. I have no regrets, and I can not imagine ever wanting to return.
The biggest difference between the Catholic Christians and Protestant Christians is:
We believe that the Catholic Church is a divinely guided authority, aided by the Holy Spirit (Matt. 16: 18-19). We believe that the official Church Catechisms are infallible truth. Catholics have two theological sources of information: Sacred Tradition and Sacred Scripture. In this way, God can still work in our lives in ways that are meaningful to us. He still can reveal Himself to us through his Church.
Protestants, however, rejected the authority of the Church during the Protestant rebellion in 1500 (before this, Catholicism was the only form of Christianity, as well as the Orthodox Church). They believe that the only source of theology is Scripture. Some even go so far as to say that the Bible teaches not just religious truth, but also scientific and historical facts (these are the fundamentalists), and believe that this can not cancel and scientific and historical achievement of the rest of humanity. Also the practice of Sola Scriptura, the heretical belief that one can read and interpret the Bible by itself without the help of the Holy Spirit. This is why we have seen so many breaks and splits in the field of Protestant Christianity (over 38,000 + Protestant churches) during the 500 years since its creation by man, while a Catholic church over 2000 years, since Jesus himself established 33A.D.
No, it is not.
And for the record, the agreement was never necessary. Only your love and fidelity.
If you think you do not like being a Catholic, the least we could do is to first learn to understand the faith that God has given you, before rejecting it.
Foolish pride is very difficult to overcome, as own.http: / / douglawrence.wordpress.com /
No Protestant was formed to allow the divorced Catherine of Aragon and Henry VIII.
So, basically, the Protestant Church was formed due to a woman who does not spawn a child.
Catholic focus on Mary and a lot who believe that she was perfect as Jesus. Cree Prodistant Jesus is the only perfect. There's a lot more though.
Similar perhaps, both Catholics and Protestants share some Protestant faiths, but in reality no authority of the Pope.
yes. both are forms of Christianity, therefore, are the same religion, but simply different names
