Christianity in the early centuries has made many followers including martyrs under the persecution of the Roman empire. The reason why the Roman emperor Constantine authorized Christianity is that the Christianity made the Christians who were not afraid of persecutions through baptism. Baptism in the early church was not a simple symbolic action which dips the candidate into the water, but a radical event through which people of the secular world were changed into citizens of the Kingdom. This made the Christianity the national religion of the Roman empire. In biblical and theological perspectives, baptism has various names and each of these names contain its own theological meaning. Among those, the following meanings are principal: union with Christ, union with the church, washing, regeneration, sealing, consecration, renunciation of the devil and contract with Christ, and the illumination of the Holy Spirit. The early church had a system or structure which enabled these theological meanings to be realized within the individuals. It was ``catechumenate.`` Catechumenate was a process which every baptismal candidates had to take from the pre-baptismal stage to the post-baptismal stage. The contents of the catechumenate included the teachings about the Bible, Christian doctrines, and the way of Christian life. The catechumenate was prolonged until three years, and the students of the catechumenate wes separated from the baptized in this period. Through this separation the candidates experienced ``double marginality`` and it worked for the candidate`s conversion experience. The baptism of the early church was a womb in which the citizens of the Kingdom were produced. This sheds some lights on the contemporary Christian churches which regards baptism as a mere symbolic gesture.
