Does the word christian comes from Jesus Christ?

The religion of jesus(peace be upon him)was neither 'christianity' nor 'judaism'.He was a jew by race,and was calling his fellow jews back to the authentic religion of Abraham and Moses,but was not preaching what is today called judaism. He never claimed he was preaching 'christianity'in fact the word "christian" appeared for the first time decades after jesus(peace be uon him)had left this world.The bible states: ...And the disciples were called Christians first in antioch(Acts 11:26). As for the word "christ",it is an english derivative from the greek word "kristos" meaning "the anointed one"('Messiah'in the hebrew language)Means Prophet.

this is just one kind belief if u put that belief on the spirit level that is ok while u think the world is what the bible says u will get lost in the colourful world i can give u a description from the point of science and techlogy wanna hear?

Yes. Christ is the title of Jesus. Christians are the followers of the Christ.

Your not a Christian. O well, I'll share some of what I know about your question. The word Christian definitely comes from the name of Jesus Christ or simply Christ the remaining letter which is "ian" is an abbreviation which means "I Am Nothing!". Being a Christian means without Christ I Am nothing. I believe that the founder of Christianity was one of Jesus disciples which is Peter and other followers of Jesus.

"...The disciples were called Christians first at Antioch." -- Acts 11:26 -- It was during the time when Saul(Paul) and Barnabas were in Antioch, teaching "great numbers of people". They were called "Christians" because they were followers of Jesus Christ and told others about Him. It was the people of Antioch who named them Christians...

the term christian was actually a bit of a slur, as others have pointed out the relitivly young church kept talking about a man called jesus and calling him the Messiah (hebrew word), or the Christ (greek word). they talked about Christ so much they were dubbed the christians. odd how names stick. it got recorded in the book of Acts (written by Luke as the second part of his gospel story) and soon people all over the world were claiming to be 'Christians!' This was all long after Jesus has left the earth! short answer, yes and no!

As a noun the word Christian refers to a religious person who believes Jesus is the Christ and who is a member of a Christian denomination. As an adjective it refers to the follower of the teachings or manifesting the qualities or spirit of Jesus Christ. Christ is not the founder of Christianity but Christian church is. Christ did not ask anyone to start a religion in His name.

The followers of Christ were first called Christians in Antioch. Christian was a term or name associated to the followers of Christ as a term or abuse, although they gladly accepted it.

The origin of the word Christian is Christ, it means believers of Christ. The Founder of Christianity is Jesus Christ, He was the one who introduced Christianity into the world, until it increased and increased.

neither...and it was more of an insult that anything else.

The word Christian is biblical... I mean, you can find the word christian in the Bible. In acts 11:19-26, it was the story of apostle paul and barnabas who went to antioch. In verse 26, you will see that in Antioch, the group of believers were called CHRISTIANS. Hope it helps!
