The exact location of John the Baptist's baptism site is debated, but it is commonly believed to be along the Jordan River, near places like Bethany beyond the Jordan or the area around the Dead Sea. The distance from Jerusalem to these sites is approximately 20 to 30 miles (32 to 48 kilometers). Travelers during that time would have taken a winding path, which could increase the journey distance. Overall, it would have taken several hours to a full day to walk from Jerusalem to the baptism site.

Did John the Baptist founded the first baptist church?
No. Both Baptists and Anabaptists have their names deriving from the idea that they would "re-baptize" people. By 1500's it had become normative to practice the Christian rite of baptism on infants as an expression of faith of the parents.Both Baptists and Anabaptists believed that baptism is to express the faith of the individual. Therefore, people who joined Baptist or Anabaptist groups were required to undergo "believer's baptism" even if they had been baptized as infants.John the Baptist was described as such because his most famous role in the Bible was as the one who baptized Jesus. Even though John did practice believer's baptism, he was not a "Baptist" in the Christian sense. John's baptism was a Jewish baptism of repentance. (The English term "baptize" is simply the transliteration of a Greek word meaning to dip or immerse.) It was pre-Christian.

Where is it found in the Bible when Jesus started His ministry?
His ministry in Judea (John 3:22-4:4; Luke 3:19-20, 4:14; Mark 1:1; and Matthew 4:12). Jesus spent a short time with His disciples ministering in a place not far from where John the Baptist was preaching and baptizing. Word of Jesus' successes came to the attention of the Pharisees in Jerusalem and raised their hostility toward Him. Also Jesus learned that Herod Antipas had arrested John the Baptist for John's criticism of his relationship with his brother's wife. So Jesus decided to leave Judea and then began what has become known as The Great Galilean Ministry.
