When did Jesus become Christ?

Answer 1

Answer:He always was God. discovering JesusIn the Gospel of John, first chapeter, the Lord Jesus is referred to as the Word....with capital W. Read vs 1, 2, 3, 4, 10, 14. All of these verses refer to Jesus.

It also gives you the answer that you are seeking. In studying The Bible, it is a misconception that the Father created the world....from the above versus we know that Jesus did.

On the contrary: the Bible does not say Jesus is the Word; it says God is the word. I believe Jesus is God, but to those who espouse differently, your answer holds no weight.

AnswerHe always was. He always did the will of the Father. In one part of the bible as he is talking to the Father he mentions about how he will be with him like it was in the beginning.

Answer 2

You can't really say that Jesus Christ was a Christian since "Christian" means follower of Christ (literally it means Christ-like). He was more the Father of Christianity. The faith itself is based completely on his life, teachings, death, and resurrection.

Another Answer:

Jesus was never a Christian, but remained a Jew throughout his life. The book Rabbi Jesus, by the Anglican priest (and founder of the Institute of Advanced Theology) Bruce Chilton, deals with this fact, and explains that Jesus remained loyal to his religion and was a respected teacher of Judaism in his era. Some scholars, such as John Dominic Crossan, in his The Birth of Christianity, have argued that Jesus's disciples became Christians as a result of their transformative experience of the Resurrection, but even Crossan doesn't allege that Jesus was a Christian.

The Gospel-writers referred to Jesus as specifically a "rabbi" in Matthew 26:25&49; Mark 9:5, 11:21, 14:45; and John 1:38&49, 3:2, 4:31, 6:25, 9:2, 11:8, and 20:16.

So, the Gospel-writers recognized that Jesus was not only a Jew but a "rabbi."

Matthew 28:18-20 is the only non-Judaic thing that Jesus was alleged to have taught. If you copy what's in parentheses here ("The Authenticity of Matthew 28:19" "Online Truth") and paste it into a search box, you will see one of many arguments that the passage was added, not authentic. However, stronger evidence of this is that the earliest-written of the canonical Gospel accounts of Jesus, which was Mark, had no such passage: it ended in Mark 16:8. The earliest two manuscripts of Mark, both of which date from the 4th Century, both lack that passage, but someone later added, to Mark, 16:9-20. Consequently, all of the earliest-written evidence is consistent that Jesus never left the Jewish faith, and that he would be shocked and appalled that, in violation of the first three of the Ten Commandments, Christians are baptized in the name of this man whose disciples called him "Rabbi."

Answer 3

A:Scholars say that the evidence of the gospels is that Jesus became the Son of God:

• Mark: At his baptism, when the voice of God came from heaven;
• Matthew, Luke: At the time of his conception by the Holy Spirit;
• John: Since before the time of creation.

Answer 4

Jesus was Christ right from the start.

Second answer:

"Christ" was the Greek term for the Jewish "mashiach," whom the Jews expected to come some day to re-establish an independent Israel by conquering Israel's occupying army. The mashiach was longed-for by Jews because they lived under military occupation by foreigners, and they hoped for restoration of Israel's independence. "Christ" as understood by Christians is a concept that actually never existed in Judaism, because of the first three of the Ten Commandments prohibiting anyone from being worshiped except God, the unitarian Father in Jewish mythology, who (unlike Jupiter in the Roman religion, Zeus in the Greek religion, and other such gods in pagan myths) did have families (like Jesus being worshiped as the Son of God the Father). The Jewish concept of the mashiach was instead defined as the descendant of King David who would restore Israeli independence by conquering the occupying army, which in this case would have been the Roman army. Judaism prohibited worshiping any mashiach, just as it prohibited worshiping King David or any other person. In fact, the very concept of the mashiach in Judaism, the basis upon which the concept of the "Messiah" or "Christ" was later constructed, was so inconsequential in Judaism so that it wasn't mentioned even once in the Torah, the basic Jewish Scripture in every synagogue. In Jesus's time, when the concept of "Christ" was the same as the Jewish concept of the mashiach, worshiping "Christ" was not even a possibility for Jesus's followers, since all of Jesus's followers were Jews, and Jews worshiped only God, the Father, as the one and only supreme Lord. (Look at the first three of the Ten Commandments: Exodus 20:4-7, and Deuteronomy 5:7-11.)

Third answer:

He was Christ before he was named Jesus (before he came to Earth as a human).

Answer 5

A:Scholars studying Mark, the earliest New Testament gospel say that it says that in this gospel, Jesus became the son of God at his baptism. In verse 1:11, God spoke to Jesus, to tell him the news that he was his beloved son.

The Gospels of Matthew and Luke add nativity stories to the original account, showing that Jesus was begotten of the Holy Spirit, so he became the son of God at his conception.

John's Gospel did not need a nativity story to demonstrate that Jesus was the son of God from the time of his conception, as it says that Jesus was the son of God since before creation.

Answer 6

In 1914 CE according to the understanding of Bible prophecy in Daniel. This event was invisible to human eyes as it happened in the heavenly realm. Only Jehovah's Witnesses recognize this event as having happened, and they have been 'Announcing God's Kingdom' in their Watchtower magazine and in their door-step ministry since then.

The Bible states that Christ would rule 'in the midst of his enemies'. He is allowing the human governments to exist only for a short time, as he manipulates events heading towards the complete annihilation of all human rulership at Armageddon. Mankind is given an opportunity to align themselves with the righteous requirements of that established Kingdom.

Answer 7

He doesn't affirm He was God, only the Son of God.

Answer 8

Jesus and God were and always are one.
