Book Synopsis
What Is A True Christian?
Just what is a true Christian? This is what we will examine in this book as we see what Jesus and the Scriptures have to say about this. Unfortunately, in our time, the word Christian has been so devalued, misused, corrupted and misunderstood that it is difficult to find people who have a clear understanding of what the word "Christian" really means. The first use of the word Christian was in the book of Acts where it was used as a pejorative slander against the followers of Christ. "..And the disciples were first called Christians in Antioch." Acts 11:26.
Eventually, the word stuck and it became the title of all those who are lovers and followers of Jesus Christ. The word Christian means one who is like Christ or "Christ ones." The word Christian is synonymous with the word "believer."
