By Definition, I Believe

By definition Christ is the Messiah, as foretold by the prophets of Hebrew Scriptures. Also meaning, an ideal type of humanity. Christ is: Advocate, Anointed One, Creator, God, Good Shepherd, Jehovah, Light of the world, Lord, Mediator, Messenger, Only Begotten Son, Redeemer, Savior, and the Son. The Messiah by definition, was sent to save the human race from the sin it inherited through the fall of Man. He is the Anointed one; an appellation given to Jesus, the Savior.

John 1:17, For the law was given through Moses: God’s unfailing love and faithfulness came through Jesus Christ.

John 1:41, The fist thing Andrew did was to find his brother, Simon, and tell him, “We have found the Messiah!” (Which means the Christ).

John 4:25, “I know the Messiah will come- the one who is called Christ. When He comes, He will explain everything to us.”

Acts 10:36, I’m sure you have heard about the Good News for the people of Israel – that there is peace with God through Jesus Christ, who is Lord of all.

Romans 1:4, And Jesus Christ, our Lord, was shown to be the Son of God when God powerfully raised Him from the dead by means of the Holy Spirit.

Matthew 5:17-20, Do not think that I have come to abolish the Law or the Prophets; I have not come to abolish them but to fulfill them. I tell you the truth, until heaven and earth disappear, not the smallest letter, not the least stroke of a pen, will by any means disappear from the Law until everything is accomplished. Anyone who breaks one of the least of these commandments and teaches others to do the same will be called least in the kingdom of heaven, but whoever practices and teaches these commands will be called great in the kingdom of heaven. For I tell you that unless your righteousness surpasses that of the Pharisees and the teachers of the law, you will certainly not enter the kingdom of heaven.

By my definition, Christ is love. With my heart filled will love (Him), it guides me to His arms as I’m lead to believe.
