Key Questions Still Divide Catholics and Protestants
Four fundamental questions continue to create a rift between Catholics and Protestants: How are we saved? How does God communicate? Who holds authority in the church? And how should worship be conducted? These questions highlight the theological divides that persist even after 500 years since the Protestant Reformation.
