Protestant beliefs
-Believe in one God, made of three persons, called the Trinity: Father, Son (Jesus Christ),
and Holy Spirit.
-Believe Jesus is humanity's savior.
-2 big factors Protestant beliefs
1. Grace of God and faith in God
2. Bible authority
-Protestants protest Catholics because:
1. Protestants believe in faith in being saved through Jesus by God's grace as
the way to Heaven. While Catholics believe it is done through good works.
2. Catholics believe in using both church traditions and the Bible. The traditions
are usually made by popes and church council members. Protestants believe the
Bible is the only authority and not council members or the pope.
The 5 Fundamental Principles
1- The Pope has no authority.
2- The Bible alone ("Sola Scripture"): The Holy Bible alone has the authority
3- Free interpretation of the Holy Bible
4- Salvation is by "grace alone", by "faith alone, in "Christ alone"
5- The Priesthood of all Believers.
