Depends on the Protestant.  I'm not sure that Anabaptists mean the same
thing that I do when I say that I acknowledge one baptism for the remission
of sins.

And there are non-magisterial Protestantisms that set personal experience
and opinion far above any credal or dogmatic formulation; Bishop John Shelby
Spong, Gretta Vosper, and Paul Tillich have all felt perfectly comfortable
in contesting or contradicting the historic creeds without violating the
canons of their respective church bodies.
