What are protestants beliefs?

Answer:

Protestants are Christians who believe first and foremost in the Holy Bible. They believe that the Bible is the inspired word of God, that it is true and authoritative in all matters. They do not tack on a bunch of other side teachings besides what are in the Bible nor do they have a hierarchy of organized religious leaders. Protestants believe that man can go to God directly through Jesus Christ.

Protestants believe that all people are sinners and require a savior. They believe that there is nothing which a man can do to earn salvation, but if he calls upon Jesus Christ and accepts His free gift of salvation then a man can be saved. Jesus, Christians believe, is 100% God and 100% man sent by the Father (also God) from heaven to die on the cross a substitutionary death in order to pay the price of sin in place of the actual sinner. But, it is up to the sinner to accept this gift. He can do this through faith which comes from reading the Bible.
