It is a translation of the Hebrew מָשִׁיחַ (Māšîaḥ), usually transliterated into English as Messiah. The word is often misunderstood to be the surname of Jesus due to the numerous mentions of Jesus Christ in the Christian Bible. The word is in fact used as a title, hence its common reciprocal use Christ Jesus, meaning "Jesus The Anointed One", or "Jesus The Messiah". Followers of Jesus became known as Christians because they believed that Jesus was the Christ, or Messiah, prophesied about in the Tanakh (which Christians term the Old Testament). The majority of Jews reject this claim and are still waiting for the Messiah to come (see Jewish Messiah). Most Christians now wait for the Second Coming of Christ when they believe he will fulfill the rest of the Messianic prophecy. The area of Christian theology focusing on the identity, life, teachings and works of Jesus, is known as Christology. From Wikipedia under the

I have been raised to believe we are saved by faith and not works, We accept Jesus as savior, ask him to forgive us and try our best to live for him. I had a friend at work telling me the church she used to attend ( Church of Christ) taught you needed to be baptized. Reading scripture like John 3:16 I don't see that.

(Mark 16:16) The phrase "shall be" clearly puts "saved" after "believes and is baptized". Baptism is the point in time when a repentant believer becomes a Christian (saved). Baptism is how God has appointed for us to receive the gift of salvation. 1 Peter 3:21 says, baptism now saves you -- not the removal of dirt from the flesh, but an appeal to God for a good conscience through the resurrection of Jesus Christ. (NASB) Baptism is a command of Christ. He said, He that believes and is baptized shall be saved. (Mark 16:16) Many will tell you that someone believes, is saved, and then he shall be baptized.

Q. Jesus died on the cross so that we would be forgiven for our sins. What happened to those who sinned prior to this event. Man was on Earth before Christ as we all know. Asked by um-kay - Thu Jul 23 13:22:19 2009 - - 14 Answers - 0 Comments A. I don't believe for one minute that Jesus died for our sins.
