'''Christianity''' is a religion taking its name from [[Jesus Christ]]. Adherents are called Christians. It seems that at first the religion was called The Way and the adherents were called Nazarenes (after the city of Nazareth where Jesus lived.)  The name Christian arose in Antioch in the first century A. D. and its use spread.  The three largest self-governing bodies of Christians are the Roman Catholic Church (approx. 1 billion baptized members), the Orthodox Church (approx. 300 million baptized members), and the Anglican Communion (approx. 77 million baptized members).
