@TerriGreenUSA Nothing but more Idols to worship for Him. If mankind never created that word/name Christian many things would never have been created around it including its religion. Follow Jesus as He has said one must do, not religion.
"Jesus never started a religion. He called people to deny themselves, take up their cross, and follow Him. He called them disciples. The name 'Christian' was given by the world later — not by Jesus or the apostles.Look at Joseph and Daniel. They didn't run for office or seek political power. They were captives and slaves, yet God raised them up. That's the pattern: God places people where He wants them. We don't campaign for it.Jesus told Pilate, 'My kingdom is not of this world.' The early disciples submitted to governing authorities and focused on living the Gospel, not trying to control governments. Today, many who call themselves Christians chase political power to 'save the nation.' But Jesus never commanded that. The term 'Christian' lets people wear the name without counting the cost of actually being His disciple.Disciples follow Jesus. Christians follow a religion. There's a difference."

@HonestYPTweets Ok, so discern these questions. #1, Who called the disciples of Jesus "Christians?" #2, What does Romans 12:2 tell all disciples of Jesus not to do? #3, What name did Jesus give every person who denies self, takes up their cross and follows Him? And then "Why change the name?"
"Christianity has become exactly what Jesus warned about — a man-made religion full of divisions and traditions, just like the Pharisees in His day. Jesus didn’t start a religion. He called people to follow Him. But Christianity turned His name into 45,000 denominations, pagan holidays, and endless arguments. The system is not the Savior. Return to your first love. Follow Jesus, not ‘Christianity.’"

@OliveTreeMin So @OliveTreeMin please tell al here who will listen "Who" created that name "Christian", then tell all what Romans 12:2 tells all Jesus' disciples not to do, and then tell all who Jesus said the prince of this world is. And then explain why you use that name.

@StepJones8 where does the pure following of Jesus end and man's version begin? With the name "Christian", and its religion Christianity. Both created by mankind/this world, and both have fallen from Gods grace.
@jwarnerwallace Where does the pure following of Jesus end and man's version begin? "Christianity" and its worldly name "Christian".. Both created by mankind/this world and both have fallen from Gods grace.
@RealShahriqKhan You still call we who have denied self, taken up our cross and follow Jesus one of the same names you called us when you were in Islam. Why? Jesus gave each person who does as He said one must do a name and it is not Christian.
Question to seek answer to: "Where does the pure following of Jesus end and man's version begin?"
Seek the truth to this and you will step away from religion and follow Jesus as He has said one must do.
