What does it mean to be a Christian according to the Bible?

Answered in 1 source

A Christian is a follower of Jesus Christ, committed to living out their faith and teachings.

The term 'Christian' was first used in Antioch as recorded in Acts 11:26 and signifies someone who follows Christ. To be a Christian means to submit to the Lordship of Jesus, embody His teachings, and live in relationship with Him through the power of the Holy Spirit. It also entails being transformed by grace and participating in the mission of spreading the gospel. True Christianity is marked not only by outward identification but by an inward reality of faith and connection with Jesus. This relationship should naturally lead to acts of love and service to others, mirroring Christ's love.
