The 16th century Anabaptists have direct continuing successors in Amish, Hutterite and Mennonite communities.

Anabaptists do not believe in the validity of Infant Baptism, as is practiced in most mainstream Christian denominations, but believe that only (informed) Believers' Baptism is valid, when the person being baptised has made the decision to move to baptism for himself or herself.

There are a number of modern Church communities which also only practice so-called Believers' Baptism. These include:

  • Baptist churches
  • Churches of Christ / Disciples of Christ
  • Brethren
  • Most Pentecostal churches

As in the anabaptist movement, the call for re-baptism of those who had been baptised as infants is sometimes made in these churches, but not as insistently as in former times.
