Methodists believe that God is the creator of the world and that creation is an expression of God's love and purpose. They hold to the idea that God created the universe ex nihilo (out of nothing) and that all of creation is good, as described in Genesis. While Methodists affirm the biblical account of creation, many also embrace scientific understandings of the process, seeing no conflict between faith and reason. Ultimately, they emphasize God's sovereignty and the ongoing relationship between God and creation.

Methodists believe that one Baptism is enough.

That is also why Methodists allow infant Baptism.
