Christ means “the Anointed One,” and that title changes everything because it confirms that Jesus isn’t just a good teacher or a moral leader—He is the One chosen, appointed, and empowered by God to rescue, reign, and restore. In the Old Testament, kings, priests, and prophets were anointed for specific purposes, but Jesus is the Anointed One who perfectly fulfills all three roles. As King, He has ultimate authority over all creation and offers a new Kingdom that outlasts every earthly one. As High Priest, He intercedes for us and has made the once-for-all sacrifice to reconcile us to God. As Prophet, He reveals God’s heart and truth to a broken world. Knowing that Christ is the Anointed One means we’re not following a guess or a hopeful idea—we’re following God’s chosen Savior, who was promised, proven, and powerful to redeem. That changes everything because it means our faith rests not in what we can do, but in who He is and who we are in Him.
