Xtian
WHAT "XTIAN" IS NOT..."Xtian" is NOT a shorted version of a believer &/or follower of Jesus Christ. Unlike the term "Xmas" which is offensive to many Christians (taking Christ out of Christmas), "Xtian" has a totally different meaning.WHAT A "XTIAN" IS..."Xtian" is term to describe people who are radical followers of Jesus Christ in word, thought and deed (they actually obey the bible and are humble & repentant about their sin & failings before a perfect & holy God; their lives center around repentance & obedience to God). It describes those who have & are still being conformed to the image of Jesus Christ.DEFINITION:Here is how the word "Xtian" breaks down...1). the "X" in Latin is defined as 'To delete, cancel, or obliterate' (i.e. kill, crush & crucify). 2). the "tian" in Latin means 'to hold, grasp, have'. So an "Xtian" is a believer who dies to self (gives up everything they hold & have), thru the power of Jesus Christ and radically conforms to His image; a servant/bondservant of Christ. Not by their own power but by submitting everything in their lives to Christ (even if they have to die), for His glory.For more explanation about dying to self & conforming tho His image, watch the youtube video entitled "Get Your Cup SO Full of JESUS that Nothing Else Can Fit!" by fotm1.SCRIPTURE REFERENCES:1. Luke 9:23Then he said to them all: "If anyone would come after me, he must deny himself and take up his cross daily and follow me.2. John 14:23"Jesus replied, "If anyone loves me, he will obey my teaching. My Father will love him, and we will come to him and make our home with him."3. Peter 1:13-15 "Therefore,preparing your minds for action, and being sober-minded, set your hope fully on the grace that will be brought to you at the revelation of Jesus Christ. As obedient children, do not be conformed to the passions of your former ignorance, but as he who called you is holy, you also be holy in all your conduct..."4. Romans 12:1-3"Therefore I urge you, brethren, by the mercies of God, to present your bodies a living and holy sacrifice, acceptable to God, which is your spiritual service of worship. And do not be conformed to this world, but be transformed by the renewing of your mind, so that you may prove what the will of God is, that which is good and acceptable and perfect. For through the grace given to me I say to everyone among you not to think more highly of himself than he ought to think; but to think so as to have sound judgment, as God has allotted to each a measure of faith."5. Romans 6:16Do you not know that when you present yourselves to someone as slaves for obedience, you are slaves of the one whom you obey, either of sin resulting in death, or of obedience resulting in righteousness?6. Romans 8:13for if you are living according to the flesh, you must die; but if by the Spirit you are putting to death the deeds of the body, you will live.7. 1 Peter 2:24and He Himself bore our sins in His body on the cross, so that we might die to sin and live to righteousness8. Matthew 10:38And he who does not take his cross and follow after Me is not worthy of Me.9. Luke 14:26If anyone comes to Me, and does not hate his own father and mother and wife and children and brothers and sisters, yes, and even his own life, he cannot be My disciple.10. Luke 9:47-48Jesus, knowing their thoughts, took a little child and had him stand beside him. Then he said to them, "Whoever welcomes this little child in my name welcomes me; and whoever welcomes me welcomes the one who sent me. For he who is least among you all—he is the greatest."Its all about His glory & being a servant (totally sold out & obedient) to the Living, Almighty God / Jehovah 24/7/365.xtian
An abbreviation of Christian. Purported to have any number of derivations, such as from Latin, or because the letter resembles a cross, but the actual origin is from the greek letter beginning his name, chi, which is written similar to x.

January 6 Xtians
Also known as the “Xtian Taliban.” Armed “Christians,” most of them being white racists and supremacists hiding under the umbrella of Christian nationalism, who wouldn’t hesitate to use violence or even murder to ensure that their pro-Christian un-Christian ex-president—who lost the 2020 US election to a white pro-abortion and pro-LGBTQ+ “socialist” presidential candidate—continued to be their “anointed” political savior.
Example:
Guesstimate how many ultra-MAGA “patriots,” blue-collar “evangelicals,” and January 6 Xtians would be convicted and sentenced to a jail sentence for answering the call of their Pharisee-in-Chief to storm the Capitol so that he’d illegally serve a second-term in office.

Xtian
Ex-Christian
Frequently a person who was forced to grow up in a "traditional" fundamentalist and/or evangelical church has grown up and become an adult and has been able to leave allowing them to form their own views on the world and have the autonomy to make their own choices.
While some argue that Xtian means a devout follower of christ because of the Greek letter X (chi) and its involvement in translation from greek to english that was used in the past, however, as we no longer live in the 1630s we can recognize that language has significantly evolved to the point where old words frequently have new meanings (ex.A- anything said on tiktok these days) therefore, Xtian no longer reflects its previous meaning.

Example:
"ur going backpacking with a boy this summer?! wait you front & side hug?!?!? ur only bringing one tent?? But we learned in,Solid ground super lit bullshit hyped, youth group at church that thats's sinning !!!... don't you wanna save yourself for marriage & go on a missions trip with the rest of us?! We are all going overseas to save needy people then hopefully we can all find a godly man to marry then give them children!! Why aren't you going?!"
"Well Mary-Faithlyn-Charity Smith, as a Xtian, I no longer support purity culture as the concept supports the patriarchal ideology that people who aren't cis-male are inherently inferior & need to base themselves on the male gaze in order to have value. As a human with full bodily autonomy, I choose to go with my equally autonomous partner. As for the sleeping...we only need one tent.
In addition, the idea that my going on a vacation to a country with people you deem 'needy' in hopes of recruiting them to my cult by 'saving them' is gross &is toxic modern-day colonization. Im not gunna pay $$$$$ to get myself into a different country, go undermine their workforce by taking jobs I'm not qualified for then demand they say thankyou. To then push a way of life/beliefs on them as if theirs aren't valid while same time infantilizing them with egotistic clout pics is slow-burn terrorism. I refuse to be part of that and that is one of the many reasons I left the church and am now an ex-christian (xtian for online brevity)."
