| - A Baptist is a member of a Baptist church. Baptist churches are often regarded as an Evangelical Protestant denomination, though they were not necessarily started in protest to anything. Baptists emphasize a believer's baptism by full immersion, which is performed after a profession of faith in Jesus as Lord and Savior. A congregational governance system gives autonomy to individual local Baptist churches, which are sometimes associated in organizations such as the Southern Baptist Convention. In the late 1990s, there were about 43 million Baptists worldwide, 33 million of them living in the United States. Other large populations of Baptists exist in Africa, especially in Nigeria, Ghana and in Sierra Leone.

They favor the congregational model of church polity. The nickname "Baptist" was given to describe the seventeenth-century people who practiced the "strange form of baptism" in which people "plung’d over head and eares (immersion)." Despite distinctive commonalities, local church autonomy and historic disavowal of authoritative creeds have led to variety in both doctrines and practice. Baptists rely on Scriptures alone. The absence of formal creed or corporate hierarchy, together with the doctrine of the "Priesthood of the believer" to which they subscribe, allows for differences in biblical interpretations, even among Baptists. Their churches usually affiliate with associations of other Baptist churches of "like faith and order" on the local, state or province, and denominational level for purposes of fellowship and cooperative endeavors.
