A religious movement with roots in the British Colonies in North America created by evangelists who left the Church of England and founded new congregational religious communities in what is now the Southern United States. Because the ministers were not ordained priests of the Church of England in colonial times, these groups came to believe in the "priesthood of all believers." Also, the reason why they are "bible only" is because when they left the Church of England and its priests and bishops, the only authority they had left came from the Bible. By the way, it is possible to be a baptist without being affiliated with the Southern Baptist Convention. The first baptists were not part of that, but churches join it mostly to facilitate missions and support common interests. A baptist church is only the people in it, (even if it's only two people,) their preacher (who can be anyone they pick regardless of education or credentials,) and the Bible.
