Bible Translators Theologians Lutheran denominations are Protestant church bodies that identify, to a greater or lesser extent, with the theology of Martin Luther and with the writings contained in the Book of Concord.
[1] There are also two smaller and more conservative international associations—the International Lutheran Council, with 7.15 million members,[2] and the Confessional Evangelical Lutheran Conference, with approximately 500,000 members.
This list is grouped by affiliation with the four major international Lutheran associations mentioned above.
In addition, a number of these denominations have fellowship agreements with one another, without being part of any larger association.
In such cases, the denomination is listed under the country in which its headquarters is located.
