Christ is the spirit-Being that incarnated the human body of Jesus 2000 years ago, forming the human+Being we refer to as Jesus+Christ. The word “Christ” is a TITLE which means “Anointed One”, the same as Messiah does in Hebrew or Christos does in Greek.

Christ, the spirit-Being is God’s Eldest Son (Col. 1:14-15) and is obviously NOT OF THIS WORLD (John 8:14*, John 17:5, John 18:36).

Jesus was the human son born of the virgin Mary and thus definitely was of this world.

Each and every one of us is likewise a spirit-Being (Soul) that is temporarily incarnating the human body we see in the mirror. The spirit-Being (Soul) MUST learn to overcome (Rev. 2:26-28, 3:12) and subdue the human (flesh), i.e. bring it under subjection (1 Cor. 9:27) just as Christ did. And just as Christ instructed us to do (Luke 9:23).
