King James Version (KJV) Jesus 983 times Christ 571 times Jesus Christ 550 times Jesus and Christ are proper nouns. The pronoun for Jesus and Christ is 'he.' 'he' is used 3071 times in the (KJV) New Testament, but not all those 'he's refer to Jesus or Christ. To find which ones do and how many takes an algorithm beyond this searcher's capability.
There is no mention of Jesus in the Old Testament, but there are Scriptures in the Old Testament that speak of a coming Messiah. Isaiah chapter 53 is one of the more lengthly ones and if you compare it to what we know of Jesus' life and accomplishsments it is a very good likness of Jesus Christ.
Mostly you would find such references in 200, Religion. However you will probably find such references in 900, History as well.
The gospel of Christ
You can find the story of how Christians came to be in the Holy Bible. The Old Testament covers the era before Jesus Christ, and the New Testament covers His birth, life, death and resurrection.
In the New Testament
First of all you have to believe on Jesus Christ. That is a prerequisite. That is essential. With out believing on Jesus Christ you can't be His disciple. After that you have to turn your life over to Him completely and do His will, which is to love Him and love your neighbor. (That is treat your neighbor as you would like your neighbor to treat you. ) Of coarse there are many other things you should do. Study the New Testament to find the answers.
No, although there are several prophecies that Christians refer to as mentioning him indirectly.- Jesus Christ is not mentioned specificaly but one title has 'the suffering servent' (At the end of Jesus' life he suffered on a cross). Its well worth reading Isiah in the bible, If you dont want to read it all just look at Isiah chapter 52 verse 13 to Chapter 53 verse 12 (this is really not that big and can be read in 30 seconds!)A list of some verses (sentences) in the bible which mentions a savior (Messiah) AKA J.C.Isiah 9:1-2, 52:13-53:12Psalm 16:10, 110:4, 132:11There are other verses but its best you check somewhere which has the whole list.ANSWERThe word Christ in the English Bible is the same as Messiah in the Hebrew Bible.The O.T. predicted a Messiah (or a Christ) would come into the world to save sinners. No human knew who that messiah would be. From the bible (N.T.) we can compare Jesus' life with what was predicted in the O.T. about the messiah and conclude that Jesus is the messiah or the Christ, hence the name He is known by, Jesus Christ or Jesus the Christ.
The old testament is the first half of the bible. The old testament is before Jesus was born (BC). The new testament is telling about Jesus' life.
The Gospels, first four books of the New Testament, have the birth, life, death and resurrection, including ascention, of Jesus of Nazareth. *Matthew, Mark, Luke and John.
Read the New Testament in the bible The four gospels Matthew Mark Luke and John tell the story of Jesus' life on earth.
