Term Christians:
The first recorded use of the term (or its cognates in other languages) is in the New Testament, in Acts 11:26, after Barnabas brought Saul (Paul) to Antioch where they taught the disciples for about a year, the text says: "[...] 'the disciples' were called Christians first in Antioch."
Issues:
1)is this the term used in earliest copies, since later text is found corrupt, do we know if this is true before the Forger Eusebius and compiler of Religions with Constantine?
2)Since Paul is a compiled persona liken to the compiled christ then how can anyone trust any texts using the character without considering the possibility of a compiling blanket term like Christian would be similarly created as well.
3)The word " Christian" was very rarely used in the new testament to refer to those that trust/believed on Jesus.
4)Acts is said to be written in 80-90 ad and by that time many christs and personas with similar names or attributed titles were confused for each other already.
5)this includes Krishna called Christos which is the term which Christians comes from, therefore the apostles are Krishnas according to people who claim the word Christians existed in the time of their christ. Otherwise they have to admit it's a later created blanket term for followers of a christ figure (which stretches across many offshoot Judaic cults and other culture's religions).
Before the blanket compiled term there was:
Followers of Yeshu of 100bc called Hanotzrim, Followers of Yehuda the Galilean called Yehudites, Followers of the AD era Christ Theudas (called Nazarenes?), followers of Benjamin the Egyptian (called?), followers of Christos(Krishna) (called Christian?), Followers of Mithra(called Christian in Rome?), followers of Esus the tri god, followers of Dagon (the fish)and Baal (sons of day/priests of bel),
and now present day Followers of Cheech and Chong called Coloradans.
