OKpaewu: Well he became the Christ when God used his Holy Spirit to anoint (choose) him {Matthew 3:16} before that day he was a carpenter son of Joseph the carpenter, but after the anointing he became the Christ! According to the prophecies the Messiah (Christ) will appear at a certain date 29ce that's the year John baptized Jesus! |

bros Christ and the chosen one mean the same thing. So the time He was chosen in heaven, The holy spirit was not involved bah There was never a time He was not the chosen one. The term christ is just a title ooo, don't just see it as an ambigous term . Meanwhile right in heaven Jesus was the son of God, in the womb of Mary He remains the son of God and then at baptism He was revealed to us the son Of God In heaven Jesus was chosen making Him Christ( the chosen one) Christ and chosen one is the same thing In the womb of Mary,He still remains the chosen one(Christ) His baptism only serve to reveal to us that He is the chosen one(Christ). Is Jesus the son of God before baptism or did baptism make Him the son of God. Please answer the question Maximus69: |

Maximus69: Matthew 3:16-17 After being baptized, Jesus immediately came up from the water; and look! the heavens were opened up,+ and he saw God’s spirit descending like a dove and coming upon him.+ 17 Look! Also, a voice from the heavens+ said: “This is my Son,+ the beloved, whom I have approved.”+ Here is the reference for the verse in your NWT Isaiah 42:1 Look! My servant,+ whom I support! My chosen one,+ whom I have* approved!+ I have put my spirit in him;+ He will bring justice to the nations. Matthew 3: 13 Then Jesus came from Galʹi·lee to the Jordan to John, in order to be baptized by him.+ 14 But the latter tried to prevent him, saying: “I am the one who needs to be baptized by you, and are you coming to me?” 15 Jesus replied to him: “Let it be this time, for in that way it is suitable for us to carry out all that is righteous.” Then he quit preventing him. Did John know that JESUS was CHOSEN or NOT? Even when they are still in the womb So Mary set out in those days and traveled with haste into the mountainous country, to a city of Judah, 40 and she entered the home of Zech·a·riʹah and greeted Elizabeth. 41 Well, as Elizabeth heard the greeting of Mary, the infant in her womb leaped, and Elizabeth was filled with holy spirit. 1 Like |

OKpaewu: He became the Christ on the day the holy spirit landed on his head! Before you can grasp the secret, you need to know the full meaning of Christ otherwise you'll continue to misconstrue the whole issue! First of all i want you to know that Christ means the one and only person God chose to teach us everything we need to know about holiness and life that's truly benefitial {Matthew 17:5} So when did Jesus became the one and only counselor who is next to God {1Corinthians 11:3} before or after his baptism? Remember that he had to grow up under the care of his foster parents who must guide and counsel him as their own child {Luke 2:51} whereas the Christ must not be subjected to anyone! So the question again Sir, when did he became the Christ (Saviour whose counsel will save us all) before or after his baptism? |

chatinent:catholics are idol worshippers they serve a graven image. mary is not the mother of God she was only a vessel through which christ can come to this world as human. The bible specially stated that we should not bow down to any image, catholics practice idolism . |

bros Christ is gotten from a Greek word and the Greece interpret it as the chosen one, I don't know where you are getting your own meaning from are you now teaching the Greek their own language? Christ does not mean the only one that God chose to teach and counsel us, Christ according to the Greek means the chosen one, simple as that, forget the esoteric knowledge you want to attach to it. Christ was everything before baptism, however baptism served to reveal who He is to us. I rest my case abeg Maximus69: |

OKpaewu: I'm not dragging anything with you my friend! You're right regarding the meaning of Christ (Messiah) of course it means the Chosen one, but chosen for what purpose? That's where your understanding of the scriptures is incomplete! He was Chosen as the one and only counselor qualified to lead us to God, so i'm telling you that he became that Counselor after his baptism, that was when he began serving as Christ not when he was chosen in heaven, not when he came to the earth but after his baptism when God's holy spirit landed on his head! |
