Catholics: You're saved by faith and works
Lutherans: You're saved by faith but you should still do good works. Also, we have no pope.
Millions died because of this. FFS.
Catholics: You're saved by faith and works. Lutherans: You're saved by faith but you should still do good works.
They are 99% the same today
>Millions died because of this
Yeah, and thanks to them European governments don't have to obey the pope now.

>value of faith and working out your salvation through good works
This is not the doctrine of the Catholic church at all. The sola fide controversy adresses the question of justification...
>a national church
the Nicene creed is accepted by Lutherans
>Preaching vs Tradition & Authority
If anything it is Bible vs Tradition & Authority. The Sola scriptura issue adresses the scripture and not preaching
Very bad and misrepesentative image.
>Lutherans
>Vernacular Bible
>Catholics
>Latin (until 1960s)
Weird, because the Catholics had over 20 vernacular German Bibles before Luther, as well as Spanish, French, Italian, and Slavonic Bibles. Not to mention the English translation of John's Gospel by St. Bede and the Middle English Bible (erroneously called Wycliffe's Bible, which historians now reject as Wycliffite at all) of the ca. 1380s.
Also,
>Catholics: You're saved by faith and works
No Catholic believes you're saved by works; the Catholic Church condemned Pelagianism at Ephesus in 431.
>the Catholic Church condemned Pelagianism at Ephesus in 431.
They lied and reintroduced it
>Source: The Angel Gabriel told Muhammad in a cave.
Muhammad was a punishment set upon the church for its corruption
>we can then merit for ourselves and for others the graces needed for our sanctification, for the increase of grace and charity, and for the attainment of eternal life.

I agree that the PowerPoint slide is trash though
Millions didn't die for nuances of whether mass is the literal embodiment of Christ or whatever. They fought in order to preserve the larger spiritual union of the tribal. The excuses were secondary to trying to preserve binding spiritual and political unity in Europe. Nearly all the conflicts ended being geopolitical: Anglo-Dutch, French interventions in HRE on the side of Prots etc.
Calling it tribalistic is not a value judgement. Invidualists in the real world get picked off and raped to death. It is a tradegy that Lutheranism was allowed to survive
Protestantism will never recover from so obviously being a product of the 16th century in Europe. Everything from the rediscovery of the Didache, to the authentication of the epistles of Ignatius, to the Dead Sea Scrolls revealing Hebrew-language originals of the deuterocanonical books, to the Latin Vulgate being largely vindicated by Westcott/Hort and the aforementioned Dead Sea Scrolls, it's a simple fact that Calvinism has basically lost any credibility it thought it had and Lutheranism too. This is what happens when you build your entire schism off of partial readings of Augustine and your canon off Jerome's haphazard prologues.
None of the texts you have mentioned are considered to be canonical by St. Athanasius.
You have to be completely historically illiterate to think the 30 years war was about religion.
Protestants fought for the Emperor while France fought against him.
What's the difference between Catholic Mass and Holy Dinner? This is one of the things I never understood about Prots vs Caths.
The Catholic mass is a sacrifice where Jesus is substantially consumed. The protestant Eucharist is a communion with God, where Jesus is really (but not in substance) present.
To further complicate things, Protestants are internally divided between Lutheran "sacramental union" and reformed "pneumatic presence".
Also, most Catholics don't actually believe in transubstantiation despite it being the official doctrine, and in the 20th century the progressive wing of the catholic church proposed "transignification" instead.
A lot of it is because Luther was spooked by the idea that you shit out Jesus after the eucharist
