Formula missae was based on the medieval Mass, only replacing the Canon of the Mass. It was not meant to become any rule for Lutheranism in general. Later it was followed by the Deutsche Messe (German Mass), but Luther's Latin Mass was still used for some time after publication of the Deutsche Messe.
