The Greek word for 'Messiah' — meaning 'the Anointed One'
lightbulbNot Jesus' last name — it's His title. Like saying 'Jesus the Anointed King'
From the Greek 'Christos,' a direct translation of the Hebrew 'Mashiach' (Messiah). It's not Jesus' last name — it's His title. Calling someone 'the anointed one' meant they were chosen by God for a special mission. Kings, priests, and prophets were anointed with oil. Jesus is THE Christ — anointed as King, Priest, and Prophet all at once.
