Can someone give me a quick brief explanation?

It's basically a christian who believes the tantamount or central concept of the christian religion is that by being baptised into Christ's church, you are forever saved and guaranteed a place in God's kingdom. That's kind of the modern day explanation.
Other denominations of Christians believe that while you have to be baptised, you also have to lead a good life, do certain rituals, etc.
A baptist, at heart, though believes that even if you are a pretty bad person, you'll be saved if you were baptised into christ's church, because through baptism (to them) you are forever forgiven of your sins.
