Christ, Messiah; Anointed One
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.
| 2 Corinthians 10:1 | Now I, Paul myself, appeal to you by the meekness and gentleness of Christ (Christou | Χριστοῦ | gen sg masc) — I who when present am “timid” among you, but when away am “bold” toward you. |
| 2 Corinthians 10:5 | and every lofty idea that is raised against the knowledge of God, and we take captive every thought to make it obey Christ (Christou | Χριστοῦ | gen sg masc). |
| 2 Corinthians 10:7 | You are looking at outward appearances. If anyone has persuaded himself that he belongs to Christ (Christou | Χριστοῦ | gen sg masc), he should remind himself that just as he belongs to Christ (Christou | Χριστοῦ | gen sg masc), so also do we. |
| 2 Corinthians 10:14 | For it is not as though we had not come to you, over-reaching ourselves, for we did come even as far as you with the gospel of Christ (Christou | Χριστοῦ | gen sg masc). |
| 2 Corinthians 11:2 | For I am jealous for you with a jealousy God inspires, for I have promised you in marriage to a single husband, to Christ (Christō | Χριστῷ | dat sg masc), that I might present you to him as an undefiled virgin. |
| 2 Corinthians 11:3 | But I am afraid, however, that just as the serpent deceived Eve by his craftiness, so your minds may be led astray from the simplicity and purity that is in Christ (Christon | Χριστόν | acc sg masc). |
| 2 Corinthians 11:10 | As the truth of (Christou | Χριστοῦ | gen sg masc) Christ (Christou | Χριστοῦ | gen sg masc) is in me, this boasting of mine will not be put to silence in the districts of Achaia. |
| 2 Corinthians 11:13 | For such men are false apostles, deceitful workers, disguising themselves as apostles of Christ (Christou | Χριστοῦ | gen sg masc). |
| 2 Corinthians 11:23 | Are they servants of Christ (Christou | Χριστοῦ | gen sg masc)? — I am talking like a madman! — I am even more so: in far more labors, in prison more often, in beatings more severe, facing death again and again. |
| 2 Corinthians 12:2 | I know a man in Christ (Christō | Χριστῷ | dat sg masc) who fourteen years ago — whether in the body I do not know or apart from the body I do not know, only God knows — such a man was caught up to the third heaven. |
| 2 Corinthians 12:9 | But he said to me, “My grace is sufficient for you, for my power is fulfilled in weakness.” Therefore I will most gladly boast in my weaknesses, in order that the power of Christ (Christou | Χριστοῦ | gen sg masc) may dwell in me. |
| 2 Corinthians 12:10 | For this reason I am content with weaknesses, with insults, with hardships, with persecutions and difficulties for the sake of Christ (Christou | Χριστοῦ | gen sg masc); for whenever I am weak, then I am strong. |
| 2 Corinthians 12:19 | Have you been thinking all along that we are defending ourselves to you? We are speaking before God as those in Christ (Christō | Χριστῷ | dat sg masc); and all that we do, dear friends, is for your upbuilding. |
| 2 Corinthians 13:3 | since you seek proof that Christ (Christou | Χριστοῦ | gen sg masc) is speaking through me. He is not weak toward you but is powerful among you. |
| 2 Corinthians 13:5 | Examine yourselves to see if you are in the faith. Test yourselves. Or do you not realize about yourselves, that Jesus Christ (Christos | Χριστός | nom sg masc) is in you? — unless, of course, you fail the test! |
| 2 Corinthians 13:13 | The grace of the Lord Jesus Christ (Christou | Χριστοῦ | gen sg masc) and the love of God and the fellowship of the Holy Spirit be with you all. |
| Galatians 1:1 | Paul, apostle not men, through but Jesus and the who raised him from the dead — |
| Galatians 1:3 | Grace to you and peace from God our Father and the Lord Jesus Christ (Christou | Χριστοῦ | gen sg masc), |
| Galatians 1:6 | I am astonished that you are so quickly deserting the one who called you by the grace of Christ (Christou | Χριστοῦ | gen sg masc) and are turning to a different gospel — |
| Galatians 1:7 | not that there is another gospel, but there are some who are trying to confuse you and want to pervert the gospel of Christ (Christou | Χριστοῦ | gen sg masc). |
| Galatians 1:10 | For am I now seeking the approval of men, or of God? Or am I trying to please men? If I were still trying to please men, I would not be a servant of Christ (Christou | Χριστοῦ | gen sg masc). |
| Galatians 1:12 | For I did not receive it from man, nor was I taught it; instead I received it by a revelation from Jesus Christ (Christou | Χριστοῦ | gen sg masc). |
| Galatians 1:22 | But I was still personally unknown to the churches of Judea that are in Christ (Christō | Χριστῷ | dat sg masc). |
| Galatians 2:4 | This matter came up because of some false brothers secretly brought in — they had slipped in to spy out the freedom we have in Christ (Christō | Χριστῷ | dat sg masc) Jesus so that they might make slaves of us — |
| Galatians 2:16 | yet we know that no one is justified by the works of the law but through faith in Jesus Christ (Christou | Χριστοῦ | gen sg masc). And we have come to believe in Christ (Christon | Χριστόν | acc sg masc) Jesus, so that we might be justified by faith in Christ (Christou | Χριστοῦ | gen sg masc), and not by doing the works of the law, since no one will be justified by the works of the law. |
