For Lutherans.
1. The Real Presence is part of our theology. In fact, our view on the Real Presence is closer to the Orthodox than it is the Catholics.
2. Theotokos (Mother of God), yes, the Dormition or the like, not since the 1800’s.
3. No, Sola Scriptora is part of the deal.
4. Icons, not the same way as the Orthodox, but then most of the Catholic church doesn't view Icons that way.
5. In Europe, most Lutheran Bibles have those books. Many Orthodox have a different canon than the Western churches.

Lutherans are far closer to the Apostolic Church. One can’t club you with Presbyterians or Pent-e-costals or others.
