Iglesia nacional

De Wikipedia, la enciclopedia libre

Una Iglesia nacional es aquella iglesia cristiana asociada directamente a un grupo étnico o a un Estado nación. Estas pueden ser la religión oficial de un Estado confesional o simplemente conservar la tradición por el vínculo de la fe cristiana en una nación determinada donde existe la separación Iglesia-Estado.

Este concepto hace alusión en sus inicios principalmente al protestantismo en el Reino Unido y los países nórdicos, mientras que en el caso de Inglaterra es el común denominador para la Iglesia de Inglaterra, en algunas «Iglesias del Pueblo» de Escandinavia, se caracterizan por ser nacionales en el sentido étnico y no así como una iglesia estatal, siguiendo las ideas de Nikolai Frederik Severin Grundtvig. De todos modos, en la mayoría de los países donde la iglesia estatal es seguida por la mayoría de los ciudadanos, puede ser también la iglesia nacional y declarada por el gobierno nacional, como por ejemplo, la Iglesia del Pueblo Danés, la Iglesia ortodoxa de Grecia o la Iglesia nacional de Islandia.
