Do Protestant Churches twist what Scripture says to fit their interpretation of the Bible?

I’m not ignoring this part of your post, I’m trying to find the answer. I ran across the line about bishops becoming frustrated with spontaneous house meetings without a priest present and one of the patriarchs outlawing them approx 400-500 A.D. I’m pretty sure I know what book it’s in, but it’s packed in a box for a move.

It wasn’t referring to the family household, but meetings that were deemed official by the participants, without any clergy present. The kind of thing that Origen complained about, when he said he would go preach in somebody’s home and a few people would sneak off to other rooms to tell dirty jokes.
OH! Well I can see why that was cancelled. Don’t worry about it. From the beginning we have done nothing without the Bishop, which is what makes a gathering valid.
