 | | All Christians, Lutherans, Methodists, Roman Catholics, Orthodox, Baptists, etc. are members of the one, holy, catholic and apostolic church. |
 | | Since the time that the Lutheran Book of Worship was published, the Evangelical Lutheran Church in America (ELCA), has used the word "catholic" in order to profess that we agree with the three ancient creeds in their original form and that we recognize as Christian all other churches that agree with those creeds also. |
 | | It doesn't mean that we agree with everything that the Roman Catholic church teaches, anymore than we agree with everything that the Baptists, or the Pentecostals, or the Episcopalians say. |
