If your not Catholic your Protestant ex: Baptists, Lutheran etc....Protestant just encompasses all those that are not Catholic basically....sects are entirely to numerable to mention here do a Google search that will give you a better understanding.

I wont give you any information on religion because frankly religion is not the right way. God is not a religion it is a man made entity full of corruption and false doctrines. However, in saying that there are church's that do preach the correct message.Jesus is Gods son and he is God.John 1:49Nathanael answered and saith unto him, Rabbi, thou art the Son of God; thou art the King of Israel.John 6:35And Jesus said unto them, I am the bread of life: he that cometh to me shall never hunger; and he that believeth on me shall never thirst.John 14:10Believest thou not that I am in the Father, and the Father in me? the words that I speak unto you I speak not of myself: but the Father that dwelleth in me, he doeth the works.

Same thing. One gets dispensed by the other or vice versa.......one suppresses the other impresses so there is no difference just the way its put I guess.

God made Him a body so He could die as a man. God's Body was Jesus which was called the Son of God. His Blood covers our sin and pays our sin debt. John 1:1 and 1:14 says In the beginning was the Word and the Word was God and the Word was made flesh. How can anyone separate the Word from their being. That word came out from the center of the SPIRIT which is God. Jesus is the Almighty, which is which was and which is to come the Almighty!!!! (Rev 1:8) How many Almightys' do we have? I believe there is just ONE. His name is Jesus! (Isa. 12:2) He has become my salvation (Jesus' name means salvation). God did it by becoming a man and dying on the hill.Logabe

In Revelation we see two assemblies whose teaching is approved by God.

A protestant is someone who protest the Catholic Church. Martin Luther in the 1500's protested the Catholic Church after reading the Bible for himself, thus...the Protestant Reformation began.

That would be my question too.....being as how Martin Luther hung his thesis on the door of the church expecting the Jews to follow his lead and when they did not follow this idiots lead he began bashing them..............

There is many false doctrines in the Catholic church. Just to name a few...Worship of idolsWorship of MaryThe teaching that you must have Eucharist at least once a year to obtain salvationThe teaching that the Catholic Church started at Matthew 16:18 and is the true church of Jesus ChristThe teaching of baptism to obtain salvationand many more.That link that you gave Malik the answer to the question is neither.

So I guess that makes the Catholic faith wrong huh? Christianity needs to take a long hard look at itself its not perfect either and its not without its own faults.
