It is, perhaps, surprising, to find almost a total absence of the word Christian in the New Testament; there are only three references. However, the word is much used today both in the church and in secular society. One dictionary defines Christian as a decent, respectable person (Chambers Concise). However, we need to remind ourselves that the first six letters of the word spell Christ, and that without Him and His sacrifice for our sins, the word is meaningless. In this publication the author looks at the origin and meaning of the word Christian and the apparent reluctance of those who first believed to accept it as a word to describe themselves. He also considers - the use of the word saints to describe believers, - the message they preached and believed, - and their consequent witness in word and life.
