Is the Term Christians Appropriate for Authors?

There's a move among scholars to say that you shouldn't use the term Christian yet because they don't have doctrines. To me, it always seems a little bit weird because at what point do you have? Right. But it does seem to me that you've got people who think that Jesus provides eternal life in radically different ways. And if you want to call them Christians, then I get you to say they're just different groups,.
