Beliefs are generally evangelical protestant, and they are congregational. You need to make a profession of faith to be considered 'saved'. You must then be baptized to become a member of the church. You don't need to be a member of the church to be considered 'saved'.
Sprung from the English Separatist movement back in the 1600's. Holds orthodox Christian beliefs.
I'm not a Baptist, so I stand corrected, where corrected.

With so many using the name who are not I doubt any one knows.... strictly the Baptists are those who never bowed to The Roman cult. So I guess any who are not of the Roman cult or Protestant might claim to be... so long as they have come to God in The way He prescribes first..... I am a member of a small concervative Baptist Congrigation... But I came to God before God led me to the congrigation I am now part of... In truth there is only One Church. The Church of which Jesus The Christ is The Head... God is not concerned with denominations
