That's right. There is no evidence that Jesus was a Nazarite...and being from Nazareth certainly would not do it.No.
A Nazarene was someone from Nazareth.
A Nazarite was one who took a specific vow upon themselves.

This reminds of a conversation i had once with a lady who was a member of the Nazarene denomination. She told me with utmost sincerity that she was a Nazarene because Jesus was also a Nazarene.
I should join the Baptist Church because Saint John was also a Baptist.
My thought, exactly
Would you like to join the Salvation Army because Jesus was all about Salvation, or perhaps you'd be interested in either the Christian Church or the Church of Christ, because you yourself are a Christian thus all about Christ?
how about "First Congregational Jesusist Church"?
Is that First Congregational Jesusist Church--Christian Disciples of Christ in Jesus?
Or is that First Congregational Jesusist Church--Disciples and Christians of Jesus Christ the Lord?

No, I'm pretty sure he's actually talking about the First Messianic Presbytero-Congregational Jesusist Apostolic Christian Disciple Church of Jesus Christ our Lord God and Saviour -- Evangelical Assembly of the Bethlehem Nazarene.
Are they in fellowship with the Congregational Episcopal Brethren in Union?
No, recently they had some falling out thus resulting in a schism. They are however in communion with the Episcopal Presbyterian Congregationalist Brethren - Baptist Church of Jesus Christ.
New Calendarist Episcopal Presbyterian Congregationalist Brethren - Baptist Church of Jesus Christ or Old Calendarist Episcopal Presbyterian Congregationalist Brethren - Baptist Church of Jesus Christ? If the latter, is it North Synod or South Synod?
-CryptoLutheran
Haven't you heard? There is an unionist group called the Ecumenical Calendarist Episcopal Presbyterian Congregationalist Brethren - Orthodox Baptist Church of Protestant Jesus Christ -- Catholic Synod. Unfortunately neither the North Synod nor the South Synod recognize their claim, however they are currently in negotiation with both the Occidental and the Oriental Synods.
Are the negotiations legalistic, theological, administrative, dietary or wardrobe related?
I think it was something about the name being a tad bit difficult to remember...
Having the waters muddied so completely has indeed contributed to the clarity of this discussion.
