Free Church
A free church is a Christian denomination that is intrinsically separate from government (as opposed to a state church). A free church does not define government policy, and a free church does not accept church theology or policy definitions from the government. A free church also does not seek or receive government endorsements or funding to carry out its work. The term is especially relevant in countries with established state churches. An individual belonging to a free church is known as a free churchperson or, historically, a free churchman. In Scandinavia, free churchpersons would include Christians who are not communicants of the majority national church, such as the Lutheran Church of Sweden. In England, where the Church of England was the established church, other Protestant groups like Calvinists ( Presbyterians and Congregationalists), Baptists, the Plymouth Brethren, Methodists and Quakers are among those counted as free churches. History The free church model is ... [...More Info...] [...Related Items...] OR: [Wikipedia] [Google] [Baidu] |
Ritualism In The Church Of England
Ritualism, in the history of Christianity, refers to an emphasis on the rituals and liturgical ceremonies of the church. Specifically, the Christian ritual of Holy Communion. In the Anglican church in the 19th century, the role of ritual became a contentious matter. The debate over this topic was also associated with struggles between High Church and Low Church movements. Definition In Anglicanism, the term 'ritualist' is often used to describe the revival of second generation Oxford Movement/Anglo-Catholic/High Church which sought to reintroduce a range of Roman Catholic liturgical practices to the Church of England. Ritualism is also seen as a controversial term (i.e. rejected by some of those to whom it is applied). Common arguments Arguments about ritualism in the Church of England were often shaped by opposing (and often unannounced) attitudes towards the concept of ''sola scriptura'' and the nature of the authority of the Bible for Christians. For Those who support t ... [...More Info...] [...Related Items...] OR: [Wikipedia] [Google] [Baidu] |
