Answer 8

Of course they are Protestants!!

Protestants are all those who have their origin in the reformation, churches that didn't exist before ant that are not cults.

Have a look at this: http://www.request.org.uk/main/churches/...

everything that originates after "Lutheran" in the 1500s is protestant.

Edit: Oh this one's much better:

Everything "Radical reformers", "Lutheran" and "Reformed" are protestants. And I think you can take everything "Methodist" as well.

Answer 9

Technically no. The Baptist denomination came around AFTER the protestant denominations split from the catholic church.

Answer 10

I guess. What do you mean by 'protestant'? Lots of people protest, you know.

Answer 11

Baptist was established in 1609 by John Smyth in Amsterdam.  

Perhaps they don't consider themselves to be protestant because they see it as negative

Answer 12

Although Baptist were not formerly Roman Catholics who protested like Anglicans, Lutherans and Presbyterians, they were still considered as Protestant groups by many because they continually protested Roman Catholicism since their organization, together with the Adventists, Methodists and Pentecostals.

Surprisingly, it seems that Protestant groups have forgotten the history of how this false church mock Jesus and persecute Christians. Most of them are not protesting any more. They seem to get into living in harmony with the greatest antiChrist ever walked on earth.

Answer 13

any christian denomination is considered protestant- a protestant is a non catholic follower of christ.
