Christ
Our English word comes from the Greek word christos, which means “anointed one.” It is the exact equivalent of the Hebrew word mashiakh, which leads to the Greek, “messias,” and the English, “Messiah.”
The main message of Paul and other New Testament writers was that Jesus (Yeshua‘) was the Christ (Acts 9:22; 17:3; 18:5, 28). His point is obscured by the Greek and English terms—Jesus was the long expected Jewish Messiah. The fact that this title is better known in its non-Jewish forms testifies to how much God wanted to share His Messiah with the rest of the world.
