| | Encyclopedia: Jesus Christ as the Messiah |
 | | Jesus is the central focus of attention and worship in Christianity and is held by most Christians to be the Messiah foretold in the Hebrew Bible; they believe him to be the saviour of mankind, the son of God the Father, and God himself. | | | Jesus of Nazareth came to be seen as a possible Messiah (or Greek Khristos, thus the appellation "Jesus the Christ") to the Jews, some believed and followed him. | | | Messiah (Hebrew &;, Aramaic &;) and Christ (Greek &;) have the same literal meaning of Anointed One, and are titles given to Jesus by his followers. |

| | Evidence that Jesus Christ is the Messiah |
| | Isaac was promised to Abraham, whereas Jesus Christ was promised to Israel. | | | Apollos, who was "an eloquent man, and mighty in the scriptures" (Acts 18:24), used the scriptures of the Old Testament to convince many Jews that Jesus was the Messiah. | | | Abundant evidence of the deity of Jesus Christ is revealed through (1) the fulfillment of the Old Testament prophecies, (2) symbols (also called types or shadows) of Jesus Christ, and other sources. |

| | Most Christians believe that Jesus is the son of God and the Messiah of the Jews as prophesied in the Old Testament (or Hebrew Bible). | | | The word Christ, Christos, the Greek equivalent of the Hebrew word Messias, means "anointed." According to the Old Law, priests (Exodus 29:29; Leviticus 4:3), kings (I Kings 10:1; 24:7), and prophets (Isaias 61:1) were supposed to be anointed for their respective offices; now, the Christ, or the Messias, combined this threefold dignity in His Person. | | | To Renan "The Christ of the Gospels is the most beautiful incarnation of God in the most beautiful of forms. |

| | Jesus is highly regarded in Islamic tradition as born of the Virgin Mary and as a prophet restating divine religion. | | | The central theme of Jesus’ teaching, often conveyed in the form of a parable, was the near advent of God’s Reign or Kingdom, attested not merely by his words but by the “wonders” or “signs” that he performed. | | | The Gospels of Matthew and Luke contain narratives of Jesus’ birth and infancy, which disagree in many points but concur in asserting that he was the miraculously conceived son of Mary, the wife of Joseph, and that he was born at Bethlehem in Judaea. |

| | Thus, the Messiah will be born of a virgin, the Lord will form Him in the womb of a virgin, and He will be the Son of God. | | | The Messiah will be born of a virgin, He will be given by God. | | | Through these prophecies and examining the life of Jesus, people can only reach one inescapable conclusion—the Bible is the perfect Word of God, and Jesus Christ is exactly Who He claimed He was: God’s only begotten Son-ref Jn 3:16. |

| | Moreover, the latter-day scriptures used by members of The Church of Jesus Christ of Latter-day Saints—the Book of Mormon, which bears the modern subtitle "Another Testament of Jesus Christ," the Doctrine and Covenants, and the Pearl of Great Price—contain numerous prophetic utterances about the Messiah that in general are clearer than those in the Bible. | | | "Faith in Jesus Christ is the first principle of the gospel of Jesus Christ (A of F 4). | | | It is LDS doctrine that Jesus Christ is the child of Mary and God the Father, "not in violation of natural law but in accordance with a higher manifestation thereof" (JC, p. |

| | Bible Study, Jesus Christ is the Messiah |
| | Jesus came to the Jews but their religious leaders wouldn’t hear from Him so he went off to share the Good News about himself with non-Jews, the Gentiles. | | | Jesus shunned popular applause and desired sincerely to reach the spiritually lost with the Salvation that He alone could bring to them. | | | In conclusion Jesus was not coming as a mighty ruler to win power and man’s applause but men’s hearts with His love. |

| | Other verses that support the Messiah's protection of Israel are Acts 1:6 (where Jesus is asked and his reply is basically a put-off), Jeremiah 23:5-6, Isaiah 11:1-9, and Ezekiel 37:21-28. | | | That being said, what follows is the first part of a two-pronged critique of the Biblical Jesus that is both very forceful and does not require the believer to question the Bible. | | | These verses tell that the Messiah will proclaim peace to the nations, and that his rule will extend from sea to sea, to the ends of the earth. |
