Will you answer that question for all protestants to see?
I'll answer for the ENTIRE WORLD to see for that is the promise of the Gospel.

5For Moses writes that the man who practices the righteousness which is based on law shall live by that righteousness.
6But the righteousness based on faith speaks as follows: “DO NOT SAY IN YOUR HEART, ‘WHO WILL ASCEND INTO HEAVEN?’ (that is, to bring Christ down), 7or ‘WHO WILL DESCEND INTO THE ABYSS?’ (that is, to bring Christ up from the dead).” 8But what does it say? “THE WORD IS NEAR YOU, IN YOUR MOUTH AND IN YOUR HEART”—that is, the word of faith which we are preaching,
9that if you confess with your mouth Jesus as Lord, and believe in your heart that God raised Him from the dead, you will be saved;
10for with the heart a person believes, resulting in righteousness, and with the mouth he confesses, resulting in salvation.
11For the Scripture says, “WHOEVER BELIEVES IN HIM WILL NOT BE DISAPPOINTED.” 12For there is no distinction between Jew and Greek; for the same Lord is Lord of all, abounding in riches for all who call on Him;
13for “WHOEVER WILL CALL ON THE NAME OF THE LORD WILL BE SAVED.” Romans 10:5-13 NASB
**************
This is the promise Paul was moved to write by the Holy Spirit.
It is crystal clear in meaning.
I believe it 100%.
I am trusting in Christ and Christ alone for my salvation. Only HE can cleanse my sins.
As a follower of Christ I have been adopted into His family.
15For you have not received a spirit of slavery leading to fear again, but you have received a spirit of adoption as sons by which we cry out, “Abba! Father!” 16The Spirit Himself testifies with our spirit that we are children of God, 17and if children, heirs also, heirs of God and fellow heirs with Christ, if indeed we suffer with Him so that we may also be glorified with Him. Romans 8:15-17
In Roman times an adopted child had the following benefits per Roman law.
1. they could not be removed from the family once adopted
2. they had a right to use the family name
3. all their debts were assumed by the family
4. they had a right to inheritance of the family
******************
When Paul speaks of adoption as sons this is what he had in mind. The believers at the church in Rome, and around the Empire, would understand this.

Now, what are you trusting in?
You are clinging to an idol of man-made cloth to avoid the eternal fire.
For it to "work" you have to wear it continually. You have to do a bunch of "good deeds". In other words, you're trying to earn your salvation.
Sadly though for you, and anyone else wearing this idolatrous thing around their neck, they have abandoned the Gospel of Christ. That is, you have gone after another gospel which is a false gospel.
That scapular you wear around your neck is an albatross that negates the Cross and His sacrifice.
Trusting in it over Christ consigns you to the very place you are trying to avoid going to.
What about those who persist in typing in ALL CAPS?
