“and when he had found him, he brought him to Antioch. And for an entire year they met with the church and taught considerable numbers; and the disciples were first called Christians in Antioch.”

Acts 11:26

It is interesting to note that the first place the disciples were called Christians is also the first place recorded that the gospel was preached to both Jews and Gentiles/Greeks (:19-20).  Christ died for both, and when both were saved together (:21) they bore His name together.  “There is neither Jew nor Greek, there is neither slave nor free man, there is neither male nor female; for you are all one in Christ Jesus.” (Gal 3:28).
