Protestants follow the faith of Christ as taught by Christ and His apostles which was written down and preserved by God according to His perfect will and divine purpose.

"Every word of God is pure: he is a shield unto them that put their trust in him." -- Proverbs 30:5

There is no such thing as "apostolic tradition" nor "apostolic succession." There is, however, holy Scripture which has remained God's chosen method of reaching His children by giving them new ears to hear the truth of the Gospel preached to them.

"And Jesus answered him, saying, It is written, That man shall not live by bread alone, but by every word of God." -- Luke 4:4

That makes you what, 0 for your last 1,000 guesses on history, scripture and the Catechism? You should change your screen name to "Dr. Ofer". LOL
