You’re wrong - once again - an unbroken streak of wrong. Incredible.
The FACT is that your “Roman Catholic ‘church’”, led by Satan, did what Satan does: Lie and Steal. Your club SCREWED UP growth of the Church by distracting people from salvation by grace- and grace alone.
Luther revealed what had been perverted and confused by your religion.
Thank God!
It may be true that “Protestants didn’t exist” but what we believe is exactly what every believer knows is true and exactly what first century believers knew.
I look forward to reading the next installment of your unbroken losing streak.
Read more history. You’ll see how the Catholic Church existed from the beginning and Protestantism didn’t begin until Luther’s rebellion produced the tens of thousands of denominations that we have today such as:
Mormon
Jehovah’s Witness
Baptist
Methodist
Episcopalian
Church of Christ
Presbyterian
Pentacostal
Evangelical
Assemblies of God
AME
And the list goes on and on and on.....
