Word of the Day: Christ

Christ: savior; the title given to Jesus (the only begotten son of God).

Originally meaning "annointed", it comes from the Latin "Christus", which comes from  the Greek word "Khristos", which is a combination of the Greek word "khriein" (annoint) and the Hebrew "māšīaḥ" (messiah).

Jesus was sent to save sinners (1 Timothy 1:15), which is stated multiple times throughout the New Testament.
