Baptists believe you are saved by the Creator's grace, through Jesus Christ, who is the epitome of a true Christian.  You go to church to pray, ask for forgiveness, surround yourself with spiritual people, and most of all, learn the word of God.  Church is a sacred place, symbolism that the relationship with God is not of the world.  The word is wisdom and the wisdom is with god and is god.  People go to church to learn the wisdom that have existed on this Earth for over thousands of years, wisdom that is and with God.

There's the story of the beheaded Baptist. It goes something like this, a preacher was late for services at a rural church one Sunday. the congregation waited and eventually decided to go look for him. At just that time they heard a knock at the door and there stood the preacher without his head. They went looking for his head and found it next to some RR tracks where he had fallen out of his buggy and the train lopped it off. I usually round this up with extras like a little drinking etc. and set it near the locale where I tell the story.

Barnabas was a Christian in the early church history.  He is mentioned in the Bible, and the Gospel of Baranbas is attributed to him.  However most historians agree that the Gospel of Barnabas is a forgery from the Middle Ages.

Rev. Martin Luther King, Sr. (December 19, 1899–November 11, 1984) was a Baptist minister, an early civil rights leader and an advocate for social justice. He was also the father of American civil rights leader Martin Luther King, Jr., who was born in 1929. The elder King led the Ebenezer Baptist Church in Atlanta, Georgia, and his personal example helped inspire Martin Luther King Jr. to enter the ministry. King Sr. was also a significant leader of the civil rights movement, becoming the head of the National Association for the Advancement of Colored People chapter in Atlanta and of the Civic and Political League, and encouraging his son to become active in the movement. After King Jr.'s death, his father continued to be active in public life, and played a role in Jimmy Carter's presidential victory in 1976.

What is "the church" to which are you referring? The one true church described in the Bible (which BTW is NOT the catholic church, it wasn't around until about 600 AD) would condemn such based on 1 Corinthians 6:9-10.

Hey sister,\nAnother Baptist here. \nI believe that the Bible is the Word of God.\nI believe that you must trust in Jesus Christ to be your Savior, repent and turn from sin. \nI believe He is coming soon to take His bride (the church) home to glory.\nHow can it get any better than that?\nGod Bless

According to Google maps, there's only one Baptist Church in Newport...\nhttp://www.emmanuelbaptistchurch.org/newSite/index.php\n\nDon't know how that can be right, but there are links on the Church's website to a map and pictures.

A Baptist accepts what Jesus did, and has a personal relationship with Him.  They dedicate their babies to the Lord; they don't baptize them.  People are baptized only after accepting Jesus.  I believe most other religions have infant baptism and confirmation (which isn't in the Bible).

Baptists "do" believe in the Holy Trinity, the Father, the Son and "THE HOLY SPIRIT". And according to my sister who is a Methodist, so do they, both churches baptize babies, in our church anyone can be baptized after they have accepted the Lord as their Savior, and professed this to a Minister. Methodists also publicly profess their personal decision. Baptists believe, "Once saved, Always saved, I believe this of Methodists also, but Methodists also believe that you "must" perform "good works" (such as Habitat for Humanity) which is wonderful, but not a prerequisite for being Baptist. Hope this helped a bit.

From what I understand, they are very similar. The Baptist preach once saved, always saved. The Nazarene, I think (don't quote me), believe you can lose your salvation. Go to whichever is going to help you in your spiritual walk. God bless you for taking your son to church.

Converting him to being a baptist is just mean. Why would you do that to a person?\nHe's Cathlic. deal with it.

Most churches (methodist, episcopal, presbyterian), broke away from the catholic church at one time or another over traditions, ceremonies and beliefs that were added to what the Bible taught. Everybody had their on idea of how to do it. The Baptist and Congregational churches separated from them because we accept only the Bible as our guide - traditions are not as important as the Bible.  And we believe that a personal relationship with Jesus is what makes one a Christian - not being a member of a church.
