Christ - Jesus: a teacher and prophet born in Bethlehem and active in Nazareth; his life and sermons form the basis for Christianity (circa 4 BC - AD 29)

Christ is a title. It is the NT equivalent of the OT term "messiah" and means "anointed one." It is applied to Jesus as the anointed one who delivers from sin. Jesus alone is the Christ. As the Christ He has three offices: Prophet, Priest, and King. As Prophet He is the mouthpiece of God (Matt. 5:27-28) and represents God to man. As Priest He represents man to God and restores fellowship between them by offering Himself as the sacrifice that removed the sin of those saved. (carm)

The word means "the anointed one." It is the equivalent in Greek of the Hebrew word "Messiah." (Templetons)

Christ is another name for Jesus. It tells us that he was sent by God to save all people.
