I don't know for sure, but someone once told me where Christians came up with the word.
Col 1:27
27 To them God willed to make known what are the riches of the glory of this mystery among the Gentiles: which is Christ in you, the hope of glory.
(NKJ)
The early church saints were always going around saying, "It's Christ in you" and the saying apparently stuck.
It's Christ in you, Christ in you Christ ian
No, I have no evidence.......

What does one have to do to be one?
Suspend all rational thought.
So if you believe this and yet have not accepted Christ you are a Christian?
Suspend all rational thought.
Rational thought is something you receive after having accepted Christ...

'Accepted' Christ? If you believe he 'died' for your 'sins', then you have 'accepted' him.
I can think of no other way to 'splain it, Lucy.

put healing herbs on him not embalming fluids, they expected him
to survive which he did and then split for India. There is a lot of
evidence of this that I am sure you would deny to your dying day
but its the most logical explaination.
