The term Christian was first given to believers in [[Jesus Christ]] in Antioch, (Acts 11:26) and as such it denotes [[born again]] souls who believed in the plenary inspiration of Scripture (2Tim. 2:16) and the [[gospel]] of [[salvation]] by grace through faith in the sinless, crucified and risen Lord Jesus Christ, (Acts 10:34-43) God manifest in the flesh.<ref>[http://peacebyjesus.witnesstoday.org/DEITYofCHRIST.html The Divinity of "the Christ, the Son of the Living God"]</ref>(1Tim. 3:16) And which souls were taught to uphold the moral laws of the Bible, which would include those regarding homosexuality. It is also evidenced that these believers also were taught an overall literalistic interpretation of Scripture, (Mt. 12:4o; 2Pt. 2:15; Jude 1:11; Rev. 2:14) when such is the form. Today those who doctrinally affirm this faith are most typically termed [[Evangelical Christians]], while liberal churches and those in them usually deny or foster doubt in least one of these areas, especially as regards homosexuality.
