Thank you. I sincerely believe that most of whom we call "Protestants" are true Christians. I may disagree with you guys, but we can converse, we can share our Faith in our Lord God Jesus Christ
However, on FR religion forum there are many folks who violently attack catholics and use slurs, insults and lies -- and when you enquire, you find out that these are not Protestants who are Christian, rather they are unitarians, opcers, anti-trinitarians etc. masquerading as Christians so that they can foment discord and hatred between Christians.
A non-Catholic such as yourself may disagree strongly with Church teachings, but you are civil, you are true to Christ's teachings of love and you sincerly want to tell us what you see as the truth. I can respect that and respect a person who loves others so much she wishes to tell them the message of Christ as they see it.

If someone denies the divinity of Christ, he is not a Christian. I agree. There is no "wiggle room" on this central doctrine of the Christian faith. Jesus Christ is Almighty God incarnate. There is only ONE true God. His name shall be called "Immanuel" which is "God with us".

If someone denies the divinity of Christ, he is not a Christian. I agree as well. Maybe there should be a new forum for this, we are already way off the original topic.

If someone denies the divinity of Christ, he is not a Christian.I believe the opposite is true.
As Christians, we should try to lead a life as much like Jesus as we can. If he is God, that would be impossible unless we were a god as well.
I believe He is a pre sin nature man empowered by the Spirit of God as He claims all through His earthly ministry. If that is the case, it would be possible for a believer born again into God's family to allowed that same Spirit to guide their life as did the Christians all thru Acts.
Jesus told us we would do greater things then Him. The Pope is suppose to be an equivalent of Peter. When was the last time someone was healed by touching the hem of one of their robes?
I contend it was soon after the enemy took all the power from the Church by convincing them to make Jesus God. BVB
