Christianity

 Originally, the term Christian was used to describe the disciples of Jesus who followed His teachings. According to the Bible, the term was first used in Antioch (Acts 11:26), where the followers of Christ were recognized as a distinct group. The name likely originated as a way to identify those who belonged to Christ (Greek: Christianos), meaning “followers of Christ.”


Over time, the term Christian became more widely used, but its meaning has evolved. While it originally referred to those who actively followed Jesus' teachings and way of life, today it can be used more broadly to describe anyone who identifies with Christianity, regardless of their level of commitment to His teachings.
