(That’s What “Christ” Really Means)

TO THE BIBLE
John 20:30-31 NIV
“Jesus performed many other signs in the presence of his disciples, which are not recorded in this book. But these are written that you may believe that Jesus is the Messiah, the Son of God, and that by believing you may have life in his name…”

LET’S TALK
“Did Jesus really say He was God?” Jake asked, doubtful.

“Absolutely!” Sarah replied as she searched quickly through her Bible. “See how He responded when asked if He was the Christ; He said, “Yes, I am, and you’ll see it yourself: the Son of Man seated at the right hand of the Mighty One, arriving on the clouds of heaven” Mark 14:62 (MSG).

Jake frowned. “But why did that make the Jewish religious leaders so angry?”

“Because to the Jews, calling yourself the Son of God meant you were claiming to be God in the flesh,” Sarah explained.

Jake’s eyes widened. “So, Jesus wasn’t just a prophet?”

Sarah smiled. “Exactly! He was God in the flesh, walking among men.”

Many Christians haven’t fully grasped what the expression “Jesus the Christ” really means? The word “Christ” was translated from the Greek language into English, and it doesn’t properly capture the Jewish concept of “The Messiah.” This is understandable because the Greeks didn’t have the message of the Kingdom. But the Jews knew that the word “Christ” meant far more than “the Anointed One”; it actually means “God in the flesh.”

This claim, which many take so lightly, was what they killed Jesus for. He claimed to be “the Christ, the Son of God,” meaning that He was God’s manifestation in the flesh. And He was right. Consequently, He was condemned to death. They accused Him of robbing God of His place. They said, “…For a good work we do not stone You, but for blasphemy, and because You, being a Man, make Yourself God.” (John 10:33). But the Bible says, “Who, being in the form of God, did not consider it robbery to be equal with God.” (Philippians 2:6), because He is Himself God. 1 Timothy 3:16 says, “…God was manifested in the flesh, justified in the Spirit, seen of angels, preached among the Gentiles, believed on in the world, received up into glory.” That’s Jesus, the Christ. Glory, Hallelujah!

GO DEEPER
Luke 9:18-20
And it came to pass, as he was alone praying, his disciples were with him: and he asked them, saying, Whom say the people that I am? 19 They answering said, John the Baptist; but some say, Elias; and others say, that one of the old prophets is risen again. 20 He said unto them, But whom say ye that I am? Peter answering said, The Christ of God.

Matthew 16:13-16
When Jesus came into the coasts of Caesarea Philippi, he asked his disciples, saying, Whom do men say that I the Son of man am? 14 And they said, Some say that thou art John the Baptist: some, Elias; and others, Jeremias, or one of the prophets. 15 He saith unto them, But whom say ye that I am? 16 And Simon Peter answered and said, Thou art the Christ, the Son of the living God.

Acts 17:1-3
Now when they had passed through Amphipolis and Apollonia, they came to Thessalonica, where was a synagogue of the Jews: 2 And Paul, as his manner was, went in unto them, and three sabbath days reasoned with them out of the scriptures, 3 Opening and alleging, that Christ must needs have suffered, and risen again from the dead; and that this Jesus, whom I preach unto you, is Christ.
