Your question was unclear, somehow I think that the obvious answer is not quite what you are looking for. Christ is the Greek word for the Jewish word that means Messiah, although the Hebrew word for Messiah is not used in the Old Testament. The concept is there in Isaiah and other prophetic writings which speak of the one who will come and set up his kingdom on earth as the deliverer, which is the Jewish Messiah. There are two prophecies in Isaiah giving this Messiah a name, "Immanuel" meaning,God with us which is what Jesus became, God with us. The name Jesus is Greek for Iesous in Hebrew and is just a common name. Is this what you needed to know? Or were you asking if Jesus was actually the Christ, the Messiah who was promised to come? If that was your question, yes, and here is why, there are 350 prophecies from the Old Testament that came true in the New Testatment concerning the birth place, exact birth year, circumstances of birth, circumstances of life ministry (miracles), circumstances of manner and method of trial and death and resurrection from the dead of Jesus proving that He was the Christ Messiah. So yes in that sense there is a correlation between Jesus and the Christ and there is no difference between them they are one person. | ||||||
