 But the question comes up about us calling ourselves Christian. And what happens is, I think sometimes we hear things and we run with it or sometimes we try to be too cute. Have you ever said something you meant no harm by but someone takes it and wants to kind of, they want to persecute you and prosecute you because you may have said something the wrong way or the way they would not have used it. The term the word Christian is the same way. And we make an issue out of it. People say that that's really a bad word and we should not call ourselves Christian. Well, after today, please don't ever say that you should not call yourselves Christian. I want to go ahead and go to the passage. Let's go to which one I'm on. Is this the screen? Yeah, there we go. Let's get rid of that first. There we go. So in Acts 1126, let's read this. It says, and when and when he had found him, he brought him to Antioch for a whole year and they met with the church and taught a great many people. And in Antioch, the disciples were first called Christian. Now, here's the question. Who called the disciples Christian? People sometimes will take the belief or have the belief that the term Christian was a negative or pejorative that was ascribed to them by non- believers, by people outside the church. Now, that could be. We just don't know. The scriptures don't say so. It just says that they were called Christians by who? Well, if you say that they were called Christians by people outside the church, my question then is going to be, how do you know that? Since the text doesn't say so, let's put it back on the screen. The text simply says, and in Antioch, the disciples were first called Christian. Now, we don't know. What happens is sometimes we get used to hearing someone else say that someone was calling them as though they were calling them bad names and so forth. It just simply means they'll follow Christ or those are after Christ or Christ people. That's all. That's really all it is. If someone saw that as a negative, well, then amen. If someone saw it as a positive, amen. Because we don't know when the people said that what they thought about that. Again, here's this young but blossoming church after their leader, Jesus Christ. Therein lies the term, and by the way, the word is actually there in the Greek. Let's put it on the screen. The word is there in the Greek. If you look over to the side, it's Christianus. This word Christian is an actual biblical term. However, I want to pull up with a couple of the passages. Let's go to first Peter. I believe it's four, yet if anyone suffers as a Christian, let him not be ashamed, but let him glorify God in that name. So Peter's saying, if anyone suffers as a follower of Christ, then let him not be ashamed. So Peter's not using it as a pejorative, as a negative thing to put down. So when people say that the term Christian, we should not use that Christian. We're not Christians. No, we are absolutely without question, without a doubt Christian. And again, the word that's there in the Greek is still in the Greek as well. And so it's not a made up English word, Christianus. And so the word Christian is an actual biblical term. So I want to go ahead and dispel that so that you can always know that when someone calls you Christian, it's in the Bible.
