Although a few sacred readings and the form that followers pray are similar in both religions they are also slightly different. For example the most important text in Christianity is The Bible (that consist of The Old Testament and New Testament). Jews however, consider the TaKa’kh their “holy book” (which consist of mostly The Old Testament).

Roger Williams and John Clarke were the first famous evangelists of the Baptist faith and were one of the many key individuals that helped to expand the Baptist faith.
