Foundation and Pillars of the Protestant and Catholic Faith • The foundation of the two churches is Jesus Christ. Lutheran Pillars • Faith Alone: Only Faith will help you gain entry into heaven • Grace Alone: Faith comes from God by Grace. • Scripture Alone: The teaching authority can only come from Scripture
Catholic Pillars • Scripture and Tradition: The teaching authority comes from both Scripture and Tradition. • Faith and Works: Faith in God is extremely important, ones faith must be witnessed. • Authority of Pope and Bishops: Jesus invested authority to teach the People of God through the Pope and Bishops
REMEMBER!!! • These are simplistic explanations of the Pillars, further study of these pillars would reveal that Protestant and Catholic Theology would share more commonality than difference.
