The word 'Christian' means 'follower of Christ', while 'Protestant' refers to any denomination which separated itself from the Roman Catholic Church. While some members of Protestant denominations may well refer to themselves as Protestants, by and large the association with Jesus Christ is considered more important than the disassociation with the Roman Catholic Church - as such, 'Christian' is the primary term used.
