Christianity?

:sl:

Where did the term Christianity come from? Is it from the Bible?

Acts 11:26
and when he found him, he brought him to Antioch. So for a whole year Barnabas and Saul met with the church and taught great numbers of people. The disciples were called Christians first at Antioch.

Acts 26:28
Then Agrippa said to Paul, “Do you think that in such a short time you can persuade me to be a Christian?”

I Peter 14:6
However, if you suffer as a Christian, do not be ashamed, but praise God that you bear that name.

Christians are those who follow Prophet Jesus and Paulians are those who follow St Paul

Jesus prayed to One God, fasted did not eat pork , circumcised ,stuck to 10 commandsments, did not teach original sin concept , did not teach trinity etc unlike Paulians
