Who's departed from the foundational faith of Christ alone? Give us some examples of anyone here who says it's not Christ alone?
Protestantism is not united in faith alone, otherwise you would be united in things like infant Baptism ,etc..and of one mind in scripture interpretations with concrete teachings that can never change.
The Catholic church is hardly united in matters of faith and doctrine. Look at the difference between what has been revealed by the Orthodox that they believe that the Roman Catholics don't.
The Orthodox don't believe in transubstantiation and don't recognize the papacy.
Individual posters here who claim to be dyed in the wool Catholics don't believe in eternal torment in hell, but rather the JW and Christian Science teachings of soul annihilation.
For that matter, the issue of salvation outside the Catholic church is taught both for and against in different places in the Catechism of the Catholic Church.
Same with whether Jesus meant Peter is the rock on which His church was built or Peter's statement about Christ being the rock on which Christ builds His church.
Every man his own pope.....
YOPIOS, YOPIOT
Once you say Christ alone and than go off and reject what He clearly taught regarding Sacraments(that has 2000 plus years of consistent teaching from Church fathers as well) etc..You become me alone conforming what I believe over what Christ taught.
The Orthodox don't believe in transubstantiation and don't recognize the papacy.
The Orthodox believe exactly as Latins do in that Eucharist is really Christ present ,Body,Blood Soul and Divinity -they just regard this a mystery that did not need an explanation of transubstantiation. They do not reject our Pope either they view Him as head of Bishops

For good reason, because we believe that all love comes from Christ and The Holy Spirit blows where He Wills,thus a person who loves can be saved. If someone does not reject Christ and has Never heard of Him, but loves others unconditionally they can be saved
Do you have a life outside of FR? Spending a lot of time here results in puffing self up.
Pride puffs up but love builds up,dear sister
