Protestantism is a religious movement that encompasses forms of Christian faith and practice that originated with doctrines and religious, political, and ecclesiological impulses of the Protestant Reformation, against what they considered the errors of the Roman Catholic Church.[1] It constitutes one of the three primary divisions of Christianity, along with Catholicism and Eastern Orthodoxy.[2] The term refers to the letter of protestation by Lutheran princes against the decision of the Diet of Speyer in 1529, which reaffirmed the edict of the Diet of Worms condemning the teachings of Martin Luther as heresy.[3] Source...wikipedia |

And pls take note that protestantism is quite different from 20th century Pentecostalism, Christian fundamentalism and Evangelicalism although they share the same divergent opinions from roman catholism belief and practises |

chukwudi44: It constitutes one ofCommon man, what point are you trying to make? 20th century Pentecostalism, Christian fundamentalism and Evangelicalism all "evolved" from protestantism but aren't the same. I already pointed out that their similarities stems from the fact that they share the same divergent beliefs opposed to Roman Catholism. Modern day churches are mostly Pentecostals, Christian fundamentals and Evangelicals(not protestants). The protestants were more of a political movement during the period of the infamous "inquisitions" and persecutions by the Roman catholics and there relevance died down when the inquisitions stopped...(not without some form of bloody revolution anyway). After this revolution, modern day churches now sprang up from among liberated protestants. These includes the Pentecostals, Christian fundamentals, Evangelicals and other forms of christianity found nowadays like the seventh day adventists, jehovah witnesses just to mention a few. So, the protestants were more of freedom fighters and that's what makes the difference. |

And to you all confused about the name of the first christian church...it was addressed the as "THE CHURCH OF GOD" or "CHURCH OF CHRIST" in the new testament, depending on the translation. This is quite evident in the letters and epistles Paul used to write to his apostles in the new testament. Read 1Corinthians 1 vs 2, Romans 16 vs 16 Thank you and God bless |

So where was it in the 2nd,3rd and the early centuries of christianity? Where were they when the bible was compilled by the "unchristly" catholic church? You people should learn to use your heads at times.The catholic church has records of christian leaders from the 1st,2nd centuries to the prseent day so how come no one has any extra biblical records of their existence? 2 Likes |

chukwudi44: In the example that I cited from the scriptures concerning the original name of the first church, the bible was yet to be completed. Another fact I will like to point at is that the canonical bible was not compiled by the catholics alone but rather by the council of Nicea and the process was arranged presided over by emperor constatine. Other members of the coucil of Nicea includes Delegates from; Assyrian Church of the East, Eastern Orthodox Oriental Orthodox and Most Protestant Denominations |

JMAN05: i think the exact opposite. If you are sincere you will answer the question. If the catholic church is a direct extension of the apostolic church as i think pastor olu says, then it is only right he show us exactly when the church diverge from teaching the gospel. I'm sure he can tell italo about the dark ages untill italo is blue in the face but the truth s that exactly the gospel preached before the dark ages were the same thing taught after the dark ages. The christian doctrines never changed. If you think they changed then the onus is on you to show us when or give us a time frame of when it occured. This isn't the time to make sentimental arguement like you did above. 3 Likes |

voxpopp: Chei chei see lies and ignorance on display!!! The council of nicea did not compile nor even discuss anything about the canonisation of the bible!!! Secondly all the churches you listed did not exist by 325 when the first council of nicea held. The assyrian chrch of the east- left the catholic church in 431 CE affter the council of ephesus in 431 which discussed the nestorian controveresy!! The oriental orthodox church-left the catholic church in 451 CE after the council of chcedon East orthodox church-left the catholic church in 1054CE during the east-west chism Protestantism- was formed in the 16th century during the reformation!!!

the canon 24 of the council of carthage which finalised the books of the bible in 419CE.This same canon has earlier been adopted by the synod of hippo 393CE and council of carthage in 397ce Canon 24. (Greek xxvii.) That nothing be read in church besides the Canonical Scripture Item, that besides the Canonical Scriptures nothing be read in church under the name of divine Scripture. But the Canonical Scriptures are as follows: •Genesis. •Exodus. •Leviticus. •Numbers. •Deuteronomy. •Joshua the Son of Nun. •The Judges. •Ruth. •The Kings, iv. books. •The Chronicles, ij. books. •Job. •The Psalter. •The Five books of Solomon. •The Twelve Books of the Prophets. •Isaiah. •Jeremiah. •Ezechiel. •Daniel. •Tobit. •Judith. •Esther. •Ezra, ij. books. •Macchabees, ij. books. ◦The New Testament. ■The Gospels, iv. books. ■The Acts of the Apostles, j. book. ■The Epistles of Paul, xiv. ■The Epistles of Peter, the Apostle, ij. ■The Epistles of John the Apostle, iij. ■The Epistles of James the Apostle, j. ■The Epistle of Jude the Apostle, j. ■The Revelation of John, j. book.
