All of the jesusians are christians..
When used as "the Christian thing to do", usually to be blind to anything but what they feel is right at the moment, even if it is the opposite of what they claimed was right 5 minutes ago. Or also, it means to condemn people to hell for eternity for sinning, unless that person is of the same jesusian flavour as the talker, in which case all sinning is forgiven, no matter how much or how often....

I've been a "christian" for over a year and for me Christian means a new creation. A reformation of body and mind, from past abundances of hurt and pain into present revelation of needed love and the need to give it to others.

Refers to a person or entity belonging to the theistic belief system that believes the entity known as Jesus of Nazareth (among other things) was of divine origin.
Furthermore, it implies more informally to me that the person in question (assuming it refers to a person) has rejected reason and logic in order to stay within a thought-free comfort zone where everything is pre-determined in a wholly simplistic manner catering to the lowest instinctual denominator... i.e. That they refuse to engage their brains because it will probably hurt them.

Theos is the greek be conscious for "god" and is used interior the recent testomony refering to Father (John 17.3), Son (John a million.a million; 20.28; Acts 20.28; Romans 8.5; Titus 2.13; 2Pe a million.a million; 1John 5.20), Holy Spirit (Acts 5.3-4), devil (2Co 4.4) and pagan divinities (1Co 8.5). "Theos" is an same as "Elohim" at the same time as it refers to between the persons of the Trinity. yet at the same time as it refers to pagan divinities, the hebrew be conscious continues to be "elohim", yet interior the singular form, on account that "elohim" is plural form. (i imagine possibly i'm no longer so precise at this factor - i don't understand hebrew, purely greek). YHWH is the be conscious used interior the former testomony for the jewish Divnity purely. the recent testomony clarifies that YHWH is a composed solidarity, Father, Son and Holy Spirit. only examine Isaiah 6.8-10 and evaluate with John 12.37-40-one and Acts 28.25-27.

Really nothing, Jesus left instructions for his diciples to go out and make diciples of them teaching them all the things i have taught you. He didn't say anything about go out and make christains of them. CHRISTAIN is just a label.
