There’s only one way.

You're absolutely right, there's only one way. But that does not mean that protestants have the authority or the competence to determine the boundaries of that one way. That authority was given to one person: Peter and his successors. Not to the reformers, not to the prosperity gospelers, not to the proponents of the latest and greatest post-modern iteration of the Word in order to conform to the current trends of the era. Peter and Christ's Church. The One, True Faith. Not the bastardized imitations we see before us.

Acts 15:8 And God, which knoweth the hearts, bare them witness, giving them the Holy Ghost, even as he did unto us; 9 And put no difference between us and them, purifying their hearts by faith.

This misunderstanding of Scripture is why there is such a sharp disagreement on this thread, even though the correct explanation of what Jesus founded His Church upon has been given in past posts on this thread.

This type of argument will not end until The Lord Jesus Christ appears with his Saints and cuts the days short to avoid all flesh being destroyed.

Many at that time will resist Him still, even though He is The Truth and Only Savior of mankind.

Just as some here are resisting what is true about what the Holy Scriptures actually mean and what the Subject of those Scriptures really is.
