BAPTIST? You know who was a prominent Baptist in London, right? None other than CHARLES HADDON SPURGEON, the "Prince of Preachers!"
Wow! Confusion reigns supreme, doesn't it? He had nothing to do with Rome or the Catholic church whatsoever. Not only was he a Baptist, but he was a stalwart Calvinist.
In fact, one can trace the history of the Baptist denomination straight to the Reformation!
I believe the proper word to use here is "Checkmate!"
Just to play devil's advocate here. How would you counter that quote if what was meant by it was this. We are not Protestants because we didn't break off from Rome. We were never part of the Roman church, we were always independant of the Roman church? There fore I am not a Protestant.
