So Baptists don't count in the contest? Hmmmm...
Oh well, I'm thinking a lot of non-denominational churches used to call themselves Baptist. There's little difference, because Baptists are local rule, basically grown up house churches.

Baptist church where i was years ago and the pastor when thru approx 60 Scripture references on average, 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.
My bold.
