However you do not say which Christian church you grew up in. If for instance you came from a pentecostal background there would be a big difference; but only in the order of service. We have not long gotten involved with a Baptist Church. It's been wonderful and I'm sure it will be the same for you. Always remember. Go with God and God will go with you. Maxwell Hello Spenser,

We have not long gotten involved with a Baptist Church. It’s been wonderful and I’m sure it will be the same for you. Always remember.

Go with God and God will go with you.

Jesus meant "From above" but Nicodemus misunderstands it as Born again. Heaven Bound: You seem to have misinterpreted John 3:3 it says:

The only thing I could find was that Baptists take a more passive stance against speaking in tongues, while the Christian Church is strongly opposed. Most people here will tell you that these two are the same or part of the same, but that of course is because many people do not know that there is a sect of Protestants who call themselves the Christian Church.

Baptists teach out of that true Word from the KJV Bible. The "Christian church" is just a name of that church and does not necessarily mean it is filled with Christians. To be a true Christian you must be Born Again. Not all churches teach that. And it is the only want to become a Christian and Born Again as the scriptures require us to do. John 3:3Jesus answered and said unto him, Verily, verily, I say unto thee, Except a man be born again, he cannot see the kingdom of God. Many churches just tell people to live a moral life and that is enough to get into heaven, and that is false teachings. Many churches tell you that in order to get to heaven you have to be baptized. That is also false teaching. You must be Born Again. Baptism is a public display of your committing yourself to the Lord, by being lowered into a watery grave, and rising up again cleansed and renewed. It is just symbolic. If you get baptized and are not Born Again, you simply got wet for nothing. Not everyone who says they are Christians, are one. Matthew 7:21Not every one that saith unto me, Lord, Lord, shall enter into the kingdom of heaven; but he that doeth the will of my Father which is in heaven. The will of God is that we repent and are Born Again. Christians live according to the true Word of God. Baptists teach out of that true Word from the KJV Bible.

Baptist churches, though, are normally operated independently. that is, the Baptist Society they are a member of does NOT dictate how or what they teach. Christian Churches may be completely independent, or they might be a member of a "coalition", a loose collection of similar non-denominational churches. Again, each church is independent, and are not told what to teach. Doctrine wise, they are pretty close to the same. I left a large Christian Church for a smaller Southern Baptist church several years ago, and have had no problems. They both taught the same things, but the Southern Baptist church has more national and international resources behind it. The Christian church must depend TOTALLY os weekly donations for their upkeep and missionary efforts. Baptists Churches are usually member of one of the Baptist Societies, like the Southern Baptists.

Normally they have very fundamental beliefs, follow the bible closely. You should find out what kind of Baptist church it is - there's Southern Baptist, Independent Baptist, etc. Be careful - just like anything else, there are great Baptist churches and there are those who are run by a power hungry minister.
