A Baptist is a Christian who subscribes to a theology of believer's baptism by immersion (as opposed to infant baptism and affusion and sprinkling), salvation through faith, the authority of the Bible, local church autonomy, and disavowal of authoritative creeds. The term Baptist is also used as an adjective to describe a church, organization, or other group comprising Baptists or holding to the same principles. Baptist churches are generally regarded as identifying with Protestantism, and many would also align with evangelicalism. A diverse group from their beginning, Baptists differ today—and they did from their beginning—in what they believe, how they worship, their attitudes toward other Christians, and their understanding of what is important in Christian discipleship.
