unbaptized
Lacking holy water
Unbaptized means not having received baptism—the Christian rite of sprinkling water or immersion that marks entry into the faith.
The term appears in theological discussions about the fate of unbaptized infants or in historical contexts: The missionary worried about the unbaptized souls in the village.
Sometimes used figuratively for anything not yet initiated or consecrated.
