“It was first in Antioch [in Syria] that the disciples were by divine providence called Christians.”

By divine providence or it would not have been inspired to be written. 2Tim3-16-17.htm

That occurred about the year 50.A.D. So that from A.D. 33 to 50,or for seventeen years,

the disciples of Jesus Christ had not been called Christians or Messianists.

Besides this fact, the word “Christian (s)” occurs only three times in the entire Bible

History of ecclesiastical use of "catholic"

Ignatius of Antioch

A letter written by Ignatius to Christians in Smyrna[4] around 106 is the earliest surviving witness to the use of the term catholic church (Letter to the Smyrnaeans, 8). By catholic church Ignatius designated the Christian Church in its universal aspect, as "catholic" still meant no more than "universal", since it was only later that the word "catholic" took on the ecclesiastical meaning of "orthodox and apostolic".[5] Ignatius considered that certain heretics of his time, who disavowed that Jesus was a material being who actually suffered and died, saying instead that "he only seemed to suffer" (Smyrnaeans, 2), were not really Christians.[6] The term is also used in the Martyrdom of Polycarp in 155 and in the Muratorian fragment, about 177.
