Christ is the English form of the Greek word Christoswhich was the Greek word for the Hebrew word Messias or Messiah. It means anointed in the Hebrew and is commonly used of kings and especially the great Davidic king who was to come to save His people Israel. Messianic prophecies are the indications of the great deliverance to come, spread through almost every book of the Old Testament, beginnning with the promises of a redeemer after the Fall and found in Malachias, the last of the prophets.

There were literally hundreds of these prophecies all throughout the Old Testament and Our Blessed Lord fulfilled every single one, the prophecies concerning Our Blessed Lord, all taken together and all being fulfilled precisely runs into 1 to so many zeros, I can't even guess. The odds just one of the most well known prophecies all being fulfilled is: Well, look at eight: The probability that Jesus of Nazareth could have fulfilled even eight such prophecies would be only 1 in 1017. That's 1 in 100, 000, 000, 000, 000, 000.


Christ is the answer, the saving hope, the only thing that makes our life on earth make sense; What is the Christ? The Christ is God Incarnate on earth to save you and me!

"Christ" is the Greek translation of the word "Messiah" in the Hebrew language (originally meaning the promised deliverer of the Jewish nation prophesied in the Hebrew Bible).

Shouldn't the name Jesus Christ be Jesus the Christ?

That is a wonderful question, but the Bible does not use much punctuation, so in reality, speaking of the grammar, it is suppose to be written Jesus, Christ. not Jesus Christ. As many references in the KJV of the Bible, is Christ Jesus, written correctly Christ, Jesus, or Jesus, Christ. It is referring to Christ.
