Well, Lutheranism is based off the same background as Christian Reformed, but is a bit different. Lutheranism is not as based off of Faith as much as Christian Reformed.

Although Faith is in the Lutheran Religion, childhood education on the subject plays a big role. For example, being Confirmed in a Lutheran Church is needed to take communion. Whereas, in a Christian Reformed Church the choice to take communion is given to you, providing the trust that you are a born again Christian, and have accepted Christ into your life.

Other differences in the Churches include small variations in the service. These include the way the Pastor is dressed, the traditional music played in a Lutheran Church is guided by the hymnals, therefore singing Hymns, and the choic on the communion. In a Christian Reformed Church, worship music is played, the Pastor is dressed formally, and the communion is solely based off of faith and belief.
