believer

Definition:

In the Bible, the term "believer" refers to someone who believes in and relies on Jesus Christ as Savior.

The term "believer" literally means "person who believes."
The term "Christian" eventually came to be the main title for believers because it indicates that they believe in Christ and obey his teachings.

Some translations may prefer to say, "believer in Jesus" or "believer in Christ."
This term could also be translated by a word or phrase that means, "person who trusts in Jesus" or "someone who knows Jesus and lives for him."
Other ways to translate "believer" could be, "follower of Jesus" or "person who knows and obeys Jesus."
The term "believer" is a general term for any believer in Christ, while "disciple" and "apostle" were used more specifically for people who knew Jesus while he was alive. It is best to translate these terms in different ways, in order to keep them distinct.

43-01 After Jesus returned to heaven, the disciples stayed in Jerusalem as Jesus had commanded them to do. The believers there constantly gathered together to pray.
43-03 While the believers were all together, suddenly the house where they were was filled with a sound like a strong wind. Then something that looked like flames of fire appeared over the heads of all the believers.
43-13 Every day, more people became believers.
46-06 That day many people in Jerusalem started persecuting the followers of Jesus, so the believers fled to other places. But in spite of this, they preached about Jesus everywhere they went.
46-01 Saul was the young man who guarded the robes of the men who killed Stephen. He did not believe in Jesus, so he persecuted the believers.
46-09 Some believers who fled from the persecution in Jerusalem went far away to the city of Antioch and preached about Jesus…It was at Antioch that believers in Jesus were first called "Christians."
47-14 They also wrote many letters to encourage and teach the believers in the churches.
