The truth is that the name “Christ” is an anglisized version of the Greek “Christos” which is a translation of the Hebrew “Messiah” which meanes the “Anointed One”.

“Christ” means the “Anointed One”!

Which leads to a question .... who did the Anointing?

Obviously God the Father .... consequently, if God and Christ were co-equal as per the Nicene Creed .... then Jesus Christ could not be described as the “Christ” since there would have been no reason for him to annoint himself.

Another take on this is if Christ was the “Anointed One” then it stands to reason that there were others who were not anointed.

I posted true quotes from the blasphemous founders of your non-Christian religion. That is sufficient and to respond any further to you would give you a slice of credulity you obviously do not deserve since you’re hell-bent to spread the heresies of Mormonism. Have a night
