As you well know, the Orthodox and Roman Catholics make much of this. The third tradition, us Protestants, also claim to have corralled the true gospel, but tend to avoid explicit talk that we are the “true church.” Implicitly the claim is all over Protestantism.
I have friends who are wonderful Christians in all three traditions. I remain “Protestant” because of several doctrinal problems I see with the other two traditions.
