Baptist do not believe baptism saves and they don’t baptize babies to begin with.
They believe people are saved by
1) admitting they are a sinner
2) repenting their unbelief
3) believing that Jesus died on the cross to pay for their sins
4) confessing this belief to others
Only after this do they baptize
Something does not sound right about this story ? Are you sure the church was a Baptist church .
The story was correct, I am familiar with both churches she attended.
