John (the baptist) was not a Baptist. He was the son of a Jewish priest named Zechariah. He was also the prophet for told in the book of Isaiah.
{Matthew 11:10 (HCSB) This is the one it is written about: Look, I am sending My messenger ahead of You; he will prepare Your way before You.}
The apostle John was not a Baptist he was Jewish & the youngest of the Apostles and the one charged at the cross to take care of Jesus' mother.
{John 19:26-27}

Baptists are a group of Christian denominations, churches, and individuals who subscribe to a theology of believer's baptism (as opposed to infant baptism), salvation through faith alone , Scripture alone as the rule of faith and practice, and the autonomy of the local church.
Historians trace the earliest Baptist church back to 1609 in Amsterdam, with English Separatist John Smyth as its pastor.


{James 1:27 Pure and undefiled religion before our God and Father is this: to look after orphans and widows in their distress and to keep oneself unstained by the world.}




I am a Christian who practices my Religion mainly inside the Southern Baptist Convention but will cross denominational lines to fulfill His Purpose.
