Yes. Simon was Peter's original name. He later became the first Pope, according to Catholic teaching.
The New Testament mentions up to eight more Simons, some of whom it is difficult to make a decision either way, and in any case, it is important to know that a person persevered in the faith to the end, so any comment can only be provisional.
1.Simon the Zealot. One of Jesus disciples. Insufficient Data.
2. A brother of James and Jude and half-brother of Jesus. (Mark 13:55, Mark 6:3). Insufficient data.
3. Simon the Leper (Matthew 26:6-13) Insufficient data.
4. Simon of Cyrene, who carried the cross for Jesus. Probably a believer.
5. Simon the Pharisee. Insufficient data, but on the basis of the story, doubtful. Luke 7:40,43-44.
6. The father of Judas Iscariot. (John 6:71 and 13:2,26). Insufficient data.
7. The Samaritan magician. Claimed to be a believer, but then tried to but the power of God, leading to the title "Simony" to describe the use of bribes to but religious office. Doubtful. see Acts 8.
8. The tanner. A Christian convert with whom Peter lodged while at Joppa.

Simon
Some feel that the Simon mentioned in Acts 8:9-24 was Simon Magus.
Yes.
a Christian
There are no quotes in the Bible from Simon Zelotes, as far as I can see.
Yes, he's a Christian
It provides the fundamentals of Christianity.
Because that is how it was done in the Bible.

In the Bible, the name Simon often refers to Simon Peter, one of the twelve apostles of Jesus. Simon Peter was a prominent figure in the New Testament, known for his strong faith and leadership among the disciples.
There is no person of that name in the Bible according to my concordance. Additional Answer: Your are probably referring to Simon the Sorcerer or Simon the Magician (in Latin Simon Magus) and he first appears in Acts 8:9-14. It is said by some that it was this Simon who was in Rome and not Simon Peter.
If you are discussing the spiritual brotherhood of believers, then the bible is the history of believers. In that way, it can be your spiritual family history (if you are a believer).
No you will not. Even if you are a believer, there is no mention of hell in the Bible.
