I didn't even compare Methodists to Lutherans, I simply said they are another protestant denomination. Would you like to discuss Calvinism and compare it to Luther's "Bondage of the Will"? I said most other churches that aren't Catholic are Protestant, understand? I listed Methodists as an example of a Protestant denomination, not saying it was close to Lutheran or anything else. Read something before responding please. I don't feel like naming every Protestant denomination and placing them in order of how close they are or not. I SIMPLY said that Luther started the Protestant Reformation, he was the first.
