The original term meant, people who protested against the Roman Catholic church, and her doctrines.

So, where are the protestants today ?

Are there any left ?

And if so, are they still protesting against the church of Rome ?

4 The One True Church
5 Baptism Saves
6 The Pope: Vicar of Christ
7 The Pope: Infallible

17 Mary: Perpetual Virgin
18 Mary: Source of Holiness

24 Praying to Saints
25 Praying for the Dead
26 Statues
27 Confirmation
28 Confessing Sins to a Priest
29 Indulgences
30 Interpreting God' s Word
31 Catholic Prayer
32 Penance
33 Are Catholics Christ?

There is something else that is not listed here.
 And that is the fact that Sunday worship services, are Catholic in origin.

The Romans Catholic Church set up Sunday worship services.

I agree with you, Christians did meet on the 1st day if the week.
And the Bible says it was a farewell meeting for Paul, because they would never see him again, in this lifetime Acts  20:37   And they all wept sore, and fell on Paul's neck, and kissed him, 
  20:38   Sorrowing most of all for the words which he spake, that they should see his face no more. And they accompanied him unto the ship.

I'm a Protestant. I'm entirely against Romanism. I protest it's salvation by works, worship of everything under the sun, atrocious additions to the Bible, crusades, inquisitions (which office is still in existence today and being run by the current pope before he was elected) and all the abominations of Rome. In fact, I agree with all Protestant in that Romanism is Mystery Babylon and the Roman Pontiff (Pope) is the Antichrist.

What few in the Christian world understand is that when a person attends Sunday worship services....they acknowledge the RCC as dictating their doctrinal beliefs, instead of believing the Bible.

Romans  6:16   Know ye not, that to whom ye yield yourselves servants to obey, his servants ye are to whom ye obey; whether of sin unto death, or of obedience unto righteousness ?

Since before the Reformation there have been " protesters" against the Roman Catholic Church. The greatest undoubtedly was Professor Martin Luther who nailed 99 theses to the church door in Wittenberg. These 99 protestations stood against unbiblical Romish doctrine.

There are not many in this generation who are " old-school " Protestants. That may be due to the fact that most Christians today know their Bibles a lot better than they did in 1500 and no longer require the same enlightenment through " protesting " as did occur in the days of the early Reformers.

And when anyone quotes from the KJV they are acknowledging that the Anglican church dictates their doctrine instead of the word of God.

There is only one church organzation in the world, that protests against RCC doctrines....and, that is the 7th Day Adventist church.

Not true.  Anyways, the church you mention also protests against God's Word concerning judging others by sabbath observance, it protests against God's Word concerning the Lord's Day, it protests against God's Word by having a "Prophet" teach a doctrine of demons concerning food, and it protests against God's Word by laying out a doctrine in which the death, burial, and resurrection of Jesus Christ was not enough.

"Are you one of those Christians that you don't land in any church because none of them is right for you, none of them is biblical, none of them is good enough?  If you've been to 27 churches, and not one of them is right, just remember this you're the only constant variable.  It's probably you." - Mark Driscoll, from message "God Sends."

32:33   And the LORD said unto Moses, Whosoever hath sinned against me, him will I blot out of my book.

it protests against God's Word concerning the Lord's Day,
God says the Lord's Day is the 7th day sabbath.

Isaiah  58:13   If thou turn away thy foot from the sabbath, [from] doing thy pleasure on my holy day; and call the sabbath a delight, the holy of the LORD, honourable; and shalt honour him, not doing thine own ways, nor finding thine own pleasure, nor speaking [thine own] words:

it protests against God's Word by having a "Prophet" teach a doctrine of demons concerning food,
Isiaah 66:15   For, behold, the LORD will come with fire, and with his chariots like a whirlwind, to render his anger with fury, and his rebuke with flames of fire. 
  66:16   For by fire and by his sword will the LORD plead with all flesh: and the slain of the LORD shall be many. 
  66:17   They that sanctify themselves, and purify themselves in the gardens behind one [tree] in the midst, eating swine's flesh, and the abomination, and the mouse, shall be consumed together, saith the LORD.

Quote

If it was enoughtg...then why is Jesus Christ in heaven avting as High Priest ?

Hebrews   8:1   Now of the things which we have spoken [this is] the sum: We have such an high priest, who is set on the right hand of the throne of the Majesty in the heavens; 
  8:2   A minister of the sanctuary, and of the true tabernacle, which the Lord pitched, and not man.
