{{summary | text=Baptist churches are a Protestant denomination originating from the English Puritan movement with Anabaptist influences. There are about 100 million world-wide members, mostly in the [[USA]]. Theologically, Baptists teach a [[believer's baptism]] where adults who have professed faith in [[Jesus Christ]] are baptised as a symbol of their [[salvation]]. The churches tend to be conservative and evangelic, with a strong focus on the authority of the [[Bible]]. Each church has autonomy with a congregational governance system, however churches often associate in organizations such as the [[Southern Baptist Convention]].}}
