As an example, I was having breakfast with a local priest and other family members and we started talking about our "favorite" verses in the Bible (I think I might have been the one to suggest it, but I don't remember). I said mine was Ephesians 2:8,9 "For by grace are you saved through faith and that not of yourselves. It is the gift of God. Not of works lest any man should boast.". The priest looked up and said, "That sounds Protestant to me.".

He was right...That verse is Protestant...The whole of scripture is Protestant...

There are no Protestants in the Catholic religion and there are no Catholics in the Bible...

the whole of scripture is protestant.............without the Catholics there would be NO SCRIPTURE....

all the new testament characters are Catholic...when Christ established the church, all who had been baptized immediately became cATHOLIC...there were no Lutherans, Methodists, POresbeterians ...nothing...just Catholics.
