The Lutheran Response to Roman and Eastern Catholics

The Following Links lead to Documents which respond to the differences between Lutherans who are reformed Catholics and the Roman Catholics and Eastern Catholics. Roman Catholics are those who look to the Bishop of Rome as their head. Eastern Catholics are those who look to the patriarch of Constantiople/Istanbul, Turkey as their head..

There are several documents which Lutheran wrote in the 16th century which respond well to our differences. They are:

 The Augsburg Confession

 The Apology to the Augsburg Confession

 The Smalcald Articles

 The Treatise of the Primacy and Power of the Pope.
