Protestants are members of the Christian faith who originated from the Reformation in the 16th century, a movement against certain practices and doctrines of the Roman Catholic Church. Key figures like Martin Luther and John Calvin sought to reform the church, emphasizing salvation through faith alone, the authority of Scripture, and the priesthood of all believers. This led to the establishment of various denominations, collectively known as Protestantism, which rejected papal authority and certain Catholic traditions. The term "Protestant" itself comes from the "protests" made against the Catholic Church's practices during this period.
