Why are
Christians always talking

Christians are always talking
about Jesus? Why are Christian talking that often about
Jesus Christ? Is that really necessary? Where does it come
from?
It is true that Christians are talking often about Jesus
Christ. There are two reasons for it. The first reason is
that Christianity begun with the person Jesus Christ. His
life, deeds and words are the starting points of
Christianity. Jesus is the core, the ultimate center of
Christianity. The other reason is the name 'Christians'.
When Christianity emerged the first believers where not
called 'Christians' Actually was the word 'Christian''
first used as a four letter word. In the city Antioch the
first followers of Jesus Christ where called Christians.
This is a Greek word. People from the household of the Roman
emperor August where called 'augustianoi'. Christians where
people who are belonging to the household of Christ ('christianoi'
--> Christians).
Why are Christians always talking about Jesus? He is the
core, the centre of Christianity. Beside that the name
Christian has anything to do with Jesus. Christians are
people that belongs tot Christ (Jesus).
