Kept in the Church of Ireland. Article XXVIII holds that the sacrament of the Lord's Supper was not by Christ's ordinance reserved, carried about, lifted up, or worshipped.

Kept in the Church of Ireland. None was not carried into the Prayer Book, for the same stated reason.

Kept in the Church of Ireland. Prime was not carried into the Prayer Book. The Preface Concerning the Service of the Church says plainly that the ancient orders had become so altered and broken that they were put aside for one book with two daily services.

The church holds the normative principle, not the regulative one. Article XX gives the church power to decree rites and ceremonies, and Article XXXIV says traditions and ceremonies need not be alike in all places and may be changed by the authority of each national church. What scripture does not forbid may be ordered, which is the exact inverse of the Reformed rule.

It was the established church of Ireland until the Irish Church Act of 1869 took effect on 1 January 1871. It holds no established status now, the crown is not its supreme governor, and it legislates for itself through a General Synod in which the laity vote alongside clergy and bishops. It and the Church of England keep the same articles in opposite constitutional positions.

Kept in the Church of Ireland. Article XXV holds that there are two sacraments ordained of Christ in the Gospel, and that the other five are not to be counted for sacraments of the Gospel.

Kept in the Church of Ireland. Article XXII names the worshipping and adoration of images and of relics among the things it calls a fond thing vainly invented and grounded upon no warranty of Scripture.

Kept in the Church of Ireland. Article XXII names the invocation of saints in the same sentence, and the Prayer Book addresses no prayer to any saint.

Article XXII rejects pardons in the same sentence as purgatory, the worshipping of images and the invocation of saints, as things vainly invented and without warrant of scripture.

The Preamble and Declaration of 1870 constituted the Church of Ireland as a self-governing church which receives and approves the Thirty-Nine Articles and recognises no jurisdiction of the see of Rome over itself. It had held that position as the established church for three centuries in a country whose great majority was Roman Catholic, and it kept it after the state withdrew.

Article XXII calls the Romish doctrine concerning purgatory a fond thing vainly invented, grounded upon no warranty of scripture, and rather repugnant to the word of God.

Sung as Saint Patrick's Breastplate in Cecil Frances Alexander's versification, at the patronal festival and at ordinations.

Named in Article VI of the Thirty-Nine Articles, 1571, among the books the Church reads for example of life and instruction of manners but does not apply to establish any doctrine. Printed and appointed to be read, at a status deliberately short of the canon affirmed at Trent in 1546.

The Preamble and Declaration of 1870 declares that the Church of Ireland continues as the ancient catholic and apostolic church of Ireland and maintains the three orders of bishops, priests and deacons as it has received them. Disestablishment took the state out of its government and did not touch the episcopate.

Article XXVIII holds that transubstantiation cannot be proved by holy writ and overthrows the nature of a sacrament, while affirming that the body of Christ is given, taken and eaten only after an heavenly and spiritual manner, the mean of receiving being faith. Article XXIX adds that the wicked are in no wise partakers of Christ. That is a receptionist position, nearer Geneva than Wittenberg.

Kept in the Church of Ireland. The offertory sentences of the communion service are a sustained instruction on giving to the poor, and the alms are collected at that point in the rite.

Kept in the Church of Ireland. Baptism is ordinarily by pouring, and the Articles call it a sign of regeneration by which the promises of forgiveness are visibly signed and sealed.

Kept in the Church of Ireland. The baptismal covenant is the framework of the catechism and of the renewal of vows at Easter.

Kept in the Church of Ireland. Anglicanism keeps auricular confession available but not required, summarised in the maxim that all may, none must, some should; a general confession said by the whole congregation is the ordinary form.

Kept in the Church of Ireland. Confirmation is conferred by a bishop at an age of discretion, and the Prayer Book requires the candidate to renew the promises made at baptism in person.

Article XXIII requires that no man take upon himself the office of public preaching before he is lawfully called and sent by men who have public authority in the congregation, and the church keeps the historic threefold ministry. It has ordained women priests since 1990 and consecrated a woman bishop in 2013, which not every Anglican province recognises.

The Church of Ireland is among the churches of the Porvoo Common Statement, agreed in 1993, and is in communion with the Nordic and Baltic Lutheran churches that signed it. The basis is a shared historic episcopate rather than an agreed confession, which is the Quadrilateral's method applied.

Kept in the Church of Ireland. The Prayer Book sets out a table of the fasts of the church: Ash Wednesday, the forty days of Lent, the ember days, the rogation days and the Fridays of the year.

Kept in the Church of Ireland. The Order for the Burial of the Dead is in the Prayer Book, and the sixteenth-century books removed the prayers for the dead that the medieval rite had carried.

Kept in the Church of Ireland. The threefold order of bishops, priests and deacons was retained, and since the twentieth century women have been ordained to all three orders in most provinces, which is the sharpest present difference from Rome and the Orthodox churches.

Kept in the Church of Ireland. The Articles direct that the baptism of young children is in any wise to be retained as most agreeable with the institution of Christ.

Kept in the Church of Ireland. Intinction is widely used, and the church has argued about it, since the Prayer Book directs that the cup be given to each communicant.

Article XI holds that we are accounted righteous before God only for the merit of our Lord and Saviour Jesus Christ by faith, and not for our own works or deservings. The Church of Ireland keeps the Thirty-Nine Articles in its constitution, so the Article binds here in a way it does not across the Communion as a whole.

Kept in the Church of Ireland. The Roman sequence of colours was retained in use and was made explicit again in the modern service books.

Kept in the Church of Ireland. The marriage service of the Prayer Book, with its vow to have and to hold, is the ancestor of the wedding words used across the English-speaking world, including by people of no religion.

Kept in the Church of Ireland. Morning Prayer is the surviving daily office, and it is Matins and Lauds combined into one service. The reduction of eight hours to two was deliberate and is the plainest liturgical difference between this church and Rome.

Kept in the Church of Ireland. Sunday is kept as the Lord's Day with the duty of public worship, without the sabbatarian rigour the Reformed churches attached to it.

Article IX holds that original sin is the fault and corruption of the nature of every man naturally engendered of the offspring of Adam, whereby man is far gone from original righteousness, and that the infection of nature remains even in the regenerate.

Article II holds that Christ truly suffered, was crucified, dead and buried to reconcile his Father to us, and to be a sacrifice not only for original guilt but also for all actual sins of men. The wording runs close to the third article of the Augsburg Confession and states the atonement as a substitutionary sacrifice.

Kept in the Church of Ireland. Pilgrimage was suppressed at the Reformation and revived from the nineteenth century onward, most visibly at Walsingham.

Kept in the Church of Ireland. Prayer is shaped by a single authorised book rather than by a devotional culture, so that a congregation anywhere says the same words on the same day.

Article XI states that we are justified by faith only, and calls it a most wholesome doctrine and very full of comfort. Article XII places good works after justification as its fruits, which cannot put away sins but do please God and follow of necessity from a true faith.

Article VI holds that Holy Scripture contains all things necessary to salvation, so that nothing not read in it nor provable by it may be required as an article of faith. Article XX still allows the church authority in controversies of faith, bounded by that scripture, so the sufficiency claimed is for salvation rather than a rejection of received order.

Kept in the Church of Ireland. The Prayer of Consecration is the Anglican anaphora, and the arrangement of its parts differs between the English, Scottish and American books.

Kept in the Church of Ireland. The invocation of the Spirit was in the 1549 book, removed in 1552, and restored in the Scottish and American books, from which it came back into the modern English ones.

Kept in the Church of Ireland. Anglicans call it Holy Communion, the Eucharist or the Mass according to churchmanship, and the Thirty-Nine Articles reject transubstantiation while leaving the manner of Christ's presence deliberately undefined.

Kept in the Church of Ireland. The words of institution stand in the Prayer of Consecration, and the Articles deny that the sacrament was ordained to be gazed upon or carried about.

Kept in the Church of Ireland. The book is Anglicanism's common thread in place of a magisterium, holding morning and evening prayer, communion, baptism, marriage and burial in one volume in the people's hands. Each province has its own version and modern-language rites are now more used, but the 1662 book remains legally established in England.
