Baptists A Baptist is a member of a Protestant Christian Church or denomination with roots in England and Wales in the beginning of the 17th century.
In the late 19th century, Baptists quickly became an important part of the American Christian landscape.
Today the Baptist Church is a global phenomenon, the Baptist World Alliance having been established in 1905.
Baptist congregations tend to be run independently, organizing missions, schools and youth camps.
Baptists generally reject infant baptism, believing that sacred scripture points to the necessity of conscious choice on such matters.
