A Baptist is a member of a Baptist church. Baptist churches are often regarded as an Evangelical Protestant denomination originating from the English Puritan movement with Anabaptist influences. However there are disagreements with these labels and origins views (See "Questions of labelling" and "Origins")
Theologically many Baptists emphasize a believer's baptism by full immersion, which is performed on non-infants after a profession of faith in Jesus as Lord and Savior. A congregational governance system gives autonomy to individual local Baptist churches. However, churches will often associate in organizations such as the Southern Baptist Convention which is the largest Baptist association in the world.
