Judis

Foolproof you say? Challenge excepted.

Technically, I expect Jesus was, followed by the twelve disciples and then the people they ministered to.

If a little knowledge is a dangerous thing, then that makes me a burning truck filled with TNT hurtling through a rocket fuel depot.

I would answer the last person on Earth to become a Christian::::

The last shall be first and the first shall be last.

So I got me a pen and a paper, and I made up my own little sign. I said, "Thank you Lord, for thinkin' about me, I'm alive and doin' fine."

"...and it was first in Antioch that the disciples were by divine providence called Christians" Acts 11:26b

According to John 1:35-42, the first two disciples were Andrew and a second disciple of John the Baptist, probably John who wrote this gospel.  Andrew went to get his brother Simon Peter, so technically Andrew was the first one named to accept the witness of John the Baptist and follow Jesus.

Nicely put Roberta, very well thought out .
