  Bible Question: Do you have any specific references of what God calls His followers? I am building a list of names that God or Jesus has called us for a Bible Study on "Who we are in Christ."
 
Bible Answer: The Bible refers to Christians with many different names. Here is a quick and incomplete list, I am sure, from the New American Standard Bible (NASB):
