Christ, Messiah; Anointed One
“Repent and let every one of you be baptized in the name of Jesus Χριστός.” (Matt 2:38)
“Simon Peter answered, ‘You are the Χριστός, the Son of the living God.’ ” (Matt 16:16)
In the Old Testament and the earlier parts of the New Testament CristovV was a title, but as you move through Acts and it becomes so closely associated with Jesus that it becomes a personal name like "Jesus" and should be capitalized.
| Romans 15:8 | For I tell you that Christ (Christon | Χριστόν | acc sg masc) has become a servant of the circumcised on behalf of the truth of God, in order to confirm the promises made to the patriarchs, |
| Romans 15:16 | to be a minister of Christ (Christou | Χριστοῦ | gen sg masc) Jesus to the Gentiles, serving the gospel of God as a priest, so that my offering of the Gentiles may become acceptable, sanctified by the Holy Spirit. |
| Romans 15:17 | In Christ (Christō | Χριστῷ | dat sg masc) Jesus, then, I have reason to boast of my work for God. |
| Romans 15:18 | For I will not venture to speak of anything except what Christ (Christos | Χριστός | nom sg masc) has accomplished through me in bringing the Gentiles to obedience, by word and deed, |
| Romans 15:19 | by the power of signs and wonders, by the power of the Spirit of God, so that from Jerusalem all the way around to Illyricum I have fulfilled my ministry of proclaiming the gospel of Christ (Christou | Χριστοῦ | gen sg masc). |
| Romans 15:20 | And thus I have always made it my aim to preach the gospel, not where Christ (Christos | Χριστός | nom sg masc) was known, lest I should build on someone else’s foundation; |
| Romans 15:29 | And I know that when I come to you, I will come in the fulness of the blessing of Christ (Christou | Χριστοῦ | gen sg masc). |
| Romans 15:30 | Now I urge you, brethren, by our Lord Jesus Christ (Christou | Χριστοῦ | gen sg masc) and by the love of the Spirit, to join me in fervent prayer to God on my behalf, |
| Romans 16:3 | Greet Prisca and Aquila, my fellow workers in Christ (Christō | Χριστῷ | dat sg masc) Jesus, |
| Romans 16:5 | Also greet the church in their house. Greet my dear friend Epaenetus, who was the first convert to Christ (Christon | Χριστόν | acc sg masc) in Asia. |
| Romans 16:7 | Greet Andronicus and Junia, my compatriots and my fellow prisoners; they were well known to the apostles, and were in Christ (Christō | Χριστῷ | dat sg masc) before me. |
| Romans 16:9 | Greet Urbanus, our fellow worker in Christ (Christō | Χριστῷ | dat sg masc), and my dear friend Stachys. |
| Romans 16:10 | Greet Apelles, a tried and true Christian. Greet those who belong to the household of Aristobulus. |
| Romans 16:16 | Greet one another with a holy kiss. All the churches of Christ (Christou | Χριστοῦ | gen sg masc) greet you. |
| Romans 16:18 | For such people do not serve our Lord Christ (Christō | Χριστῷ | dat sg masc) but their own appetites. By their smooth talk and flattery they deceive the hearts of the guileless. |
| Romans 16:25 | Now to him who is able to establish you according to my gospel and the preaching of Jesus Christ (Christou | Χριστοῦ | gen sg masc), according to the revelation of the mystery that has been kept secret for long ages past, |
| Romans 16:27 | to the only wise God, through Jesus Christ (Christou | Χριστοῦ | gen sg masc), be the glory forever. Amen. |
| 1 Corinthians 1:1 | Paul, called to be an apostle of Christ (Christou | Χριστοῦ | gen sg masc) Jesus by the will of God, and Sosthenes our brother, |
| 1 Corinthians 1:2 | to the church of God that is in Corinth, to those sanctified in Christ (Christō | Χριστῷ | dat sg masc) Jesus and called to be saints together with all those in every place who call on the name of our Lord Jesus Christ (Christou | Χριστοῦ | gen sg masc), both their Lord and ours: |
| 1 Corinthians 1:3 | Grace to you and peace from God our Father and the Lord Jesus Christ (Christou | Χριστοῦ | gen sg masc). |
| 1 Corinthians 1:4 | I am always giving thanks to my God for you because of the grace of God that was given to you in Christ (Christō | Χριστῷ | dat sg masc) Jesus, |
| 1 Corinthians 1:6 | just as the testimony about Christ (Christou | Χριστοῦ | gen sg masc) was confirmed among you — |
| 1 Corinthians 1:7 | so that you do not lack in any spiritual gift as you wait for the revealing of our Lord Jesus Christ (Christou | Χριστοῦ | gen sg masc). |
| 1 Corinthians 1:8 | He will keep you steadfast to the end, guiltless in the day of our Lord Jesus Christ (Christou | Χριστοῦ | gen sg masc). |
| 1 Corinthians 1:9 | God is faithful, by whom you were called into fellowship with his Son, Jesus Christ (Christou | Χριστοῦ | gen sg masc) our Lord. |
