High-church Lutheranism is no longer very common in the United States, though it used to be. However, it can still be found in Germany, and even better, in Denmark, Estonia, Finland, Norway, and Sweden.

High-church Reformed can be found in the Netherlands and Switzerland.

Anabaptism has the following traits:

• They highly detest ritual, repetition, ceremony, formality, history, tradition, and symbolism.
• They emphasize the role of emotions, emotional renewal, and emotional revival. A person who doesn’t feel the right emotions at the right times cannot be saved, or is not worthy of respect.
• They constantly complain that the world is lacking in sincerity and genuine-ness.
• They believe that sanctification is mainly a process of becoming more sincere and genuine.
• They constantly try to stage “awakenings,” with the belief that humans of the present generation are spiritually asleep, but that with emotionally charged meetings we can wake them up.
• They do not believe it is possible for one person to be more righteous than another, seeing that “all have sinned.” As a result, they cannot fathom the concept of sainthood.
