Best Answer

We do not really know what John the Baptist taught, other than the ritual of baptism. Mandaeans say that he founded their faith, and that Christians wrongly claim that he proclaimed the coming of Jesus. Until we can ascertain the truth of the Mandaean claim, it is not really possible to understand his dosctrines and what their origins were.

Catholic vs Baptist?

Methodism is a Protestant religion and has a minimum of doctrine. An individual relationship between the worshipper and God is emphasized; no intermediary between the person and God is required. The church structure is to organize the community of believers. Catholicism has a rich and complex religious structure, layers of authority, and an elaborate doctrine and tradition of rituals, stories, and religious figures.
