The canons of this Code affect all and solely the Eastern Catholic Churches, unless, with regard to relations with the Latin ChurchChurch Creedal political organizations of Christian People (Ecclesia) were created in Rome around 350 CE with a reading manual (NT) under a local leader (Bishop) within Roman provinces. A church building is also called a 'church'. The church is the body of Christ and the Doctrine of the catholic church was added around 400 CE. Christian groups are divided into Roman Catholics, Orthodox, and countless reformed denominations. A church is maintained by donations and taxation from its members., it is expressly stated otherwise. The canons of the Code, in which for the most part the ancient law of the Eastern Churches is received or adapted, are to be assessed mainly according to that law. The Code, although it often refers to the prescriptions of liturgical books, does not for the most part legislate on liturgical matters; therefore, these norms are to be diligently observed, unless they are contrary to the canons of the Code. [Can. 1 – Canones huius Codicis omnes et solas Ecclesias orientales catholicas respiciunt, nisi, relationes cum Ecclesia latina quod attinet, aliud expresse statuitur. Can. 2 – Canones Codicis, in quibus plerumque ius antiquum Ecclesiarum orientalium recipitur vel accommodatur, praecipue ex illo iure aestimandi sunt. Can. 3 – Codex, etsi saepe ad praescripta librorum liturgicorum se refert, de re liturgica plerumque non decernit; quare haec praescripta sedulo servanda sunt, nisi Codicis canonibus sunt contraria.]
