Acts 11:26 - And when he had found him, he brought him to Antioch. So it was that for a whole year they assembled with the church and taught a great many people. And the disciples were first called Christians in Antioch. Acts 26:28 -Then Agrippa said to Paul, "You almost persuade me to become a Christian." 1 Peter 4:16 - Yet if anyone suffers as a Christian, let him not be ashamed, but let him glorify God in this matter. Scripture doesn't use the word "Christian" very often, as it was originally meant to be derogatory, like the modern term, "Moonie." Followers of Christ were more often referred to simply as "disciples," "saints," "brethren," etc.
