Which sects of Christianity practice baptism?

Nearly all Christian churches baptize. They follow the example of John the Baptist, and the instructions of Jesus Christ and Saint Paul, as set forth in the New Testament. The meaning and procedure of baptism varying among the Christian churches. For example, the Anglican, Lutheran, Methodist, Reformed, and Catholic churches baptize by the act of sprinkling or pouring water upon the individual's head. Baptists and similar churches baptize in the way it's described in the Holy Bible. This is known as immersion (submerging a person into water). This is when the entire body is placed under water. But, these churches have an individual make a voluntary statement of faith in Jesus Christ as their Savior. Therefore the churches will not baptize anyone too young to realize the significance of such a statement.


Why do some christians baptize their young and not others?

The reason that some churches baptize infants and some do not depends upon what their understanding of baptism is and upon what conditions it is offered. Speaking generally.... The churches who not baptize infants practice "believers baptism", that is, the recipient must be of an age where they can choose to be baptized or not by themselves. They see baptism as a sign of the Christian's public profession of faith. Baptism in turn is primarily seen as a dying to sin and a rising with Christ, which is why these same churches frequently baptized by immersion. Churches who baptize infants see baptism as a mark of God's grace freely offered to us without any preconditions on on own (such as a renunciation of sin and a choosing of Christ). It is a mark of God's love, God's claim, on the infant, and is a visible sign that the infant is included in God's family. In many churches the infants parents must be Christians and promise to bring the child up in the Christian faith.

What do you get when you get baptized?

This depends on the denomination or church that you are getting baptized into. Many churches baptize by immersion, which means that you will go completely under the water after a priest, minister, pastor, etc says a blessing or prayer of some sort. Other churches baptize by sprinkling, which means you will stand near a fountain while he/she says the blessing or prayer and then you will have water sprinkled on your head.
