While both Protestants and Orthodox Christians share core Christian beliefs, they differ in areas like authority, salvation, and liturgical practices, with Protestants emphasizing the Bible as the sole source of authority and salvation by grace through faith alone, while Orthodox Christians value tradition and the Church's teachings alongside the Bible.

from the internet

The Bible > Orthodox church teachings. Not even close.

So which Apostle ordained the first Bishop of your Church? If there wasn't one, then the leadership claims of your Church's Bishop's, Elders, Pastors, whatever title they might use - is bogus.

My Church was founded by Jesus Christ with St. Peter being the very first Bishop of Antioch. If your Church can't trace it's history back to the original Church, then it is a modern made-up fake "church". People in it might still do things pleasing to God, but they aren't in the Church that Jesus founded.

Are we saved by works or faith?

That is a false dichotomy.

James 2:20 "But do you want to know, O foolish man, that faith without works is dead?"

What other sort of person does Jesus Himself tell us is dead?

John 6:53 "Then Jesus said to them, “Most assuredly, I say to you, unless you eat the flesh of the Son of Man and drink His blood, you have no life in you."

No it is not commie worshipper.

Not of works, lest any man should boast.

If you have faith you will have some works. But you wont have all the works.

You are a boaster by the way.

It isn't the works that get you there it is the faith.

You don't have the works anyway. None of us do.
