Jesus Christ - Jesus of Nazareth - Son of God

[Mary Naeem]

"But who do you say that I am? Only Simon Peter answered him: You are the Christ, the Son of the living God" - Matthew 16:15-16" Christians generally consider Jesus to be the Christ, the long awaited Messiah, as well as the one and only Son of God. The opening words in the Gospel of Mark (1:1), namely "The beginning of the gospel of Jesus Christ, the Son of God" provide Jesus with the two distinct attributions of Christ and the Son of God. The divinity being again re-affirmed in Mark 1:11. Matthew 1:1 also starts by calling Jesus Christ and Matthew 1:16 explains it again with: "Jesus, who is called Christ".
