What is a Christian? |
The name was given by the Greeks
or Romans, probably in reproach, to the followers of Jesus
("little Christs!"). It was first used at Antioch.
The names by which the disciples were known among themselves
were "brethren," "the faithful," "elect," "saints," & "believers." But
as distinguishing them from the multitude without, the name "Christian" came
into use, and was universally accepted. This name occurs
but three times in the New Testament (Acts 11:26; 26:28;
1 Peter
4:16). via: Calvary Chapel See
