Lets have a discussion on the continuity of the church and what that means for protestant faith.

I am a protestant Christian and have done much soul searching over the years about this subject. If there is a "true" church that has been preserved from the beginning, which would it be? I am not referring to the worldwide congregation but rather the organization/denomination.

If not, then at what point did "The Church" deviate from the truth? What did the early believers think? The early church fathers?

Best we have is eastern orthodoxy. There are records dating back quite some time.

Changes likely have happened, especially when language changes, but the records are strong and tradition is tradition.

If you haven't, I suggest you attend Orthodox Saturday night Vespers followed by Sunday martins and Divine litergy.

See what it feels like and talk to the people after services. Ask questions.

And by nature of protestantism, you can't really expect continuity, though I'd bet Lutherans are the closest.
