The function of confessional differentiation reveals itself in juxtaposing one’s own religion with other religions as well as in unity with members of one’s own belief. The way this function took shape among Old Believers is presented on the example of Sinodik from Wojnowo. Juxtaposing is realized as an opposition against other non-Orthodox believers and supporters of Patriarch Nikon’s reforms. The feeling of unity with members of one’s own community is formed by memorizing facts (names, places and dates) of Old Believers’ martyrology, developing a sense of duty towards ancestors and paying the debt through prayers, love and respect towards them.
