In his paintings created in 1546, in the heart of Martin Luther's Protestant Reformation, Lucas Cranach depicted Protestantism as the "true religion."
His opinion of Protestantism is that its message of salvation is received through the Holy Spirit from the Lamb of God. On the other hand, he claims that Catholicism, headed by the "Anti-Christ", the Pope, is marked by greed for wealth through the sale of indulgences.
Later events in the life of the two religions have proved his mistakes. Any reformation effort carried out outside the Body of Christ only brings Separation and more Division. Protestantism has bred more greed than Catholicism today. The divisions and differences have been unstoppable. If Protestantism is the "true religion," it would have held as one and not many unrelated movements.
Thus, while Lucas Cranach depicted Protestantism as the "true religion" against Catholicism, the subsequent events in history show truth stands by the side of Jesus Christ.
