From what we can show in the book of Acts, the earlier movement that all gave up wealth (Ebionites), and lived in a big commune were not called "Christians"; it wasn't until Antioch, that the terminology 'Christian' was specifically given to Paul & Simon petros's ministry (Acts 11:25-26).

Yeshua prophesied that Simon would be used by Satan (Luke 22:31-32), and when we recognise that Saul & Sheol are spelled the same in Hebrew, it makes it a lot clearer.

Especially when in Isaiah 28:15+18, it literally says 'they've made a covenant with death, and are in agreement with Saul/Sheol'.
Isaiah 28:20-21 says in the Hebrew that it is the 'Bed of Adultery', where it goes from Isaiah 28:9-19 ('Rumour to Rumour' - as Ezekiel 7:26 is referencing), where the 'Chief Corner Stone' is in the middle of the Bed (Isaiah 28:16).
In Isaiah 53:1 when it says, 'who would've believed the 'rumour', and who is the arm of the Lord revealed to', it is pointing at Isaiah 28's connotations.

When you've said about the terminology 'Ebionites' being the 'poor ones', that was prophesied in Zechariah 11:11; where when the religious leaders rejected Yeshua (Zechariah 11:10) they broke the Abrahamic Covenant, and when they paid 30 pieces of silver (Zechariah 11:12-14) they broke the Sinai Covenant.
With both Covenant's gone the Curse of Moses was then placed on the House of Israel (Deuteronomy 28); where they eat each other's flesh at the 2nd temple destruction (Zechariah 11:9, Deuteronomy 28:53-55), and then were Exiled among the Nations.

Simon was called 'petros' by Yeshua/Yehoshua in citation of Zechariah 3:9, and Isaiah 8:14-16: where Yeshua is the Rock of Salvation (Deuteronomy 32:15, Psalm 62:2+6, Psalm 89:26), and Simon was the Stumbling Stone/Pebble. In the Parable of the Seed Sower, the seed that falls on 'Stony Ground' is plural of petros - petrodes.

The last point to share, which the world hasn't noticed, is the Gospel of John is made up by Pharisaic authors, and contradicts the Synoptic Gospels like a morality IQ test/Levitical exam.
Yeshua didn't go around making audacious "I Am" (G1473 G1510) statements about himself in the Synoptic Gospels, and spoke in parables - where Yeshua warned that many would be deceived by the "I Am" statements (Matthew 24:4-5, Mark 13:5-6, Luke 21:8); there are no parables in the Gospel of John, where many believe j+sus is God because of the 7 "I Am" statements only found in the Gospel of John.

To begin with it appears to be a Pharisaic conspiracy to overwrite Yeshua's teachings, then if we realise that all the naming was prophetically done - it makes more sense that God forewarned all of this would happen to the letter, and it is just far in advanced of what many have questioned.

John, Paul, Simon all teach Balaam teachings (Numbers 22, Micah 6:5-8, Jude 1:11), that God has never required sacrifice; it is something people have done to please God, yet God gives life to all the beings, so why would God then want them dead.

Yeshua challenged the Sanhedrin for saying that the murdering of the prophets counted as atoning sacrifices in Matthew 23:27-38, Mark 7:1-13, and the Parable of the Wicked Husbandman (Matthew 21:33-46, Mark 12:1-12, Luke 20:9-19). Yeshua is prophesying that after his death, they will turn him into an atoning sacrifice, not realising that God forewarned the Pharisees would do this.
