What false teachings has Protestantism added to the Bible?

I find it ironic that on one hand, Protestants are criticized for sola Scriptura, and not accepting the *Scared Tradition* taught by the Catholic church and then on the other hand, criticized for ADDING stuff to the word of God.

If Sacred Tradition is not adding stuff to the God breathed word of God, I don’t know what is.

So what is it that Protestants have added to the Scripture they’re castigated for following alone?

Well, here's a few:

"This is my body" means "This is a cookie"

Water baptism is not necessary

Calvin's T.U.L.I.P

Those who say the Church Christ established is invisible

Those who believe Christ said his Church would be built on a book.

Those who believe in 'Faith Alone', even though in Scripture the only place where 'faith alone' appears is 'not by faith alone'

There are thousands more. But start with these.

Please prayfully respond to this serious question:

Christ never told anyone to write a Bible. Christ never told anyone to write anything. The Apostles never told anyone that Christianity would be based on a book.

Why do you believe the Church Christ established would be based on a book? That false belief is found NOWHERE in Scripture.

Sweetie you forgot to ping me. That's okay. To answer you question (even though you fail to answer so many of my questions, including what your degree is in).

1)Sola Scriptura.

2) Once saved always saved.

3) By Faith alone.

4) Sinners prayer.

They always say that, yet I have never seen proof that Prods added anything to Scripture.

They must have some sort of apologetics class in the basement of the Knights of Columbus hall on Thursday nights that puts out talking points like this.

I would like to hear the answer to that as well.
