Baptists practice the Lord's Supper (communion) and Baptism of believers as the two acts of faith-obedience (we do not call them sacraments), Jesus Himself participated in the communion and was baptized. Jesus commanded His followers to do both of these acts in obedience to Him, but not for salvation. To the Baptist Salvation was achieved in total by Christ's death atonement for sins on the cross alone, and not by anything humans can do to earn this salvation. They differ from the other ordinances of God in that they were specially instituted by Christ Himself. Baptists call them "ordinances" (meaning "obedience to a command that Christ has given us") instead of "sacraments" (activities God uses to impart salvation or a means of grace to the participant). Baptist theology considers that no saving grace is conveyed by either ordinance and that original sin is not washed away in baptism. Baptists have traditionally believed that they are symbols. Jesus commanded that the Passover bread and wine would be a remembrance of Him in what we now call communion ...
Jesus said
Luke 22:18-20
"20 Likewise He also took the cup after supper, saying, "This cup is the new covenant in My blood, which is shed for you." And He took bread, gave thanks and broke it, and gave it to them, saying, "This is My body which is given for you; do this in remembrance of Me."for I say to you, I will not drink of the fruit of the vine until the kingdom of God comes."
Jesus said
Mark 16:15-16 "And He said to them, "Go into all the world and preach the gospel to every creature. He who believes and is baptized will be saved; but he who does not believe will be condemned."

Baptists or Southern Baptists as a denomination usually have open communion. This means that if someone in attendance is a baptized believer then they can participate in the Lord's Supper as it is called in the protestant faith.

The sacraments themselves are view as symbolic in all that it means and that the sacraments themselves do not have any special powers outside of the symbol that Jesus is the source of our love and salvation.
