Banana Man
Contributed by Daniel King, D. Min. on Jul 25, 2018 (message contributor)
Main Idea: Explains why believers in Christ are called Christians.
Verse: “the disciples were first called Christians in Antioch” (Acts 11:26 NKJV).
One day a man carrying bananas walked by a house in Central America. A woman cried out, “Hey, banana man!” His name is not banana man. Why does he turn around when she calls him that? It is because he is carrying bananas. You will be called by whatever you are carrying. If you are carrying Christ you will be called “Christian.”
