Teachings vary from church to church, however, especially among Baptists, who reject a hierarchical church structure. Unlike many Christians, Baptists aren?t baptized as infants, but only when they?ve reached the age of accountability?often in their early teens?and publicly professed their faith. Eddie Long?s church, the New Birth Missionary Baptist Church, couldn?t be reached for comment, but the ?new birth? in the name likely refers to the conversion experience that goes along with being baptized. Thus reborn, those who stray would most likely be urged not to be reborn a second time, but to repent.
