It's all a part of the same thing. Christian is the religious affiliation. Protestant is the church the person goes to. Protestants are Christians. Christians ultimately believe the same base beliefs but each of the churches inside the Christian religion has different beliefs on certain subjects that tends to vary slightly from the other churches.
