Fundamentalist Baptists are not Protestants. They believe they never rebelled against the Catholic Church to "reform" their theology and religion but rather are descended from New Testament apostolic churches. All churches are always local churches and Baptist is a distinctive rather than a denomination. It cannot be historically proven but solves the problem of legitimacy, which Protestants can never enjoy except as rebellious Catholics. Without doubt the created the best religions and theologies men of their age could do, but we all know Protestants by definition can never be the original New Testament churches.
I know that, but the RC challenger is not into making distinctions, as RCs count even Unitarians and Mormons as Prots.

You mean having historical descent and being the stewards of Scripture means such is the assuredly infallible church, dissent from which is rebellion against God. Which premise means Rome cannot solve the problem of legitimacy, but others can.

but we all know Protestants Roman Catholicism can never be considered the original New Testament churches. It is in a stage of critical deformation that was progressive .
Works for ME!!
As well as art; I hear that the Mormons have a purty good singing group.
Perhaps the Fundamentalist Baptists should be allowed to speak for themselves...
