Now THAT's a new one, "synagogue" is not a Hebrew word! :) About OT, I had in mind the Jewish writings (and traditions), rather the later translations (e.g., The Septuagint), but you disambiguated this very nicely too.

Nice to see someone acknowledge the primacy of Paul's writings (+1). I assume some of the ones using this word are works known to actually have been written by Paul? It would also be nice to see dates added to this answer, since the "when" question is best answered with dates, and I believe we have a pretty good idea of when the undisputed non-pseudepigraphic epistles were written.

@T.E.D. I checked, and the word χριστός is used in every book of the New Testament except 3 John.
