There are many other Christian denominations and movements that are similar to Protestantism in some ways but may not necessarily be considered part of the Protestant tradition.
Several other branches of Christianity are similar to Protestantism in some ways, including:
Evangelicalism
Evangelicalism is a broad term that refers to a movement within Christianity that emphasizes the authority of the Bible, personal conversion, and evangelism (the practice of sharing the gospel message). Many Protestant denominations are considered part of the evangelical tradition, including the Baptist Church, the Pentecostal Church, and the non-denominational Church.
Evangelicals typically believe in the deity of Jesus Christ, the inerrancy of the Bible, the doctrine of salvation through faith in Jesus, and the need for personal transformation through a relationship with God.
Pentecostalism
Pentecostalism is a movement within Christianity characterized by a belief in the gifts of the Holy Spirit, such as speaking in tongues and miraculous healing. Pentecostalism often includes an emphasis on personal experience and spiritual renewal. Pentecostal denominations include the Assemblies of God, the Church of God in Christ, and the United Pentecostal Church, among others.
Adventism
Adventism is a movement within Christianity centered around the belief in the imminent return (or “advent”) of Jesus Christ.
Adventists strongly emphasize the Bible and believe it is the ultimate authority for all matters of faith and practice.
Adventists also strongly emphasize health and wellness and are known for their commitment to a vegetarian diet and abstaining from tobacco and alcohol.
Adventist denominations include the Seventh-day Adventist Church, the Remnant Church of God, and the Church of God (Seventh Day).
It’s important to note that while these movements share some similarities with Protestantism, they also have their own distinct beliefs and practices. For example, Evangelicals and Pentecostals typically place a strong emphasis on the importance of personal experience in the Christian faith, while Adventists focus on the importance of the Bible and the doctrine of the imminent return of Jesus.
