The term "Christ's" refers to that which belongs to or is associated with Jesus Christ, the central figure of Christianity, who is believed to be the Son of God and the Savior of humanity. The concept of Christ's encompasses His teachings, His followers, His mission, and His divine attributes.

Christ's Teachings
Jesus Christ's teachings form the foundation of Christian doctrine and ethics. His teachings are primarily recorded in the Gospels of the New Testament. Christ emphasized love, forgiveness, and the coming of the Kingdom of God. In Matthew 22:37-39 , Jesus summarizes the law with the greatest commandments: "‘Love the Lord your God with all your heart and with all your soul and with all your mind.’ This is the first and greatest commandment. And the second is like it: ‘Love your neighbor as yourself.’"

Christ's Followers
Christ's followers, known as Christians, are those who accept Jesus as their Lord and Savior and strive to live according to His teachings. The early followers of Christ were called disciples, and the term "Christian" was first used in Antioch (Acts 11:26). The Church, as the body of Christ, is composed of believers who are united in faith and mission.

Christ's Mission
The mission of Christ is understood as the redemption of humanity through His life, death, and resurrection. Jesus declared His purpose in Luke 19:10 : "For the Son of Man came to seek and to save the lost." His sacrificial death on the cross is seen as the atonement for sin, and His resurrection is the assurance of eternal life for believers.

Christ's Divine Attributes
Christ is recognized as both fully divine and fully human, a doctrine known as the hypostatic union. In John 1:14 , it is written, "The Word became flesh and made His dwelling among us." This affirms the belief in Christ's incarnation. His divine attributes include omniscience, omnipotence, and eternal existence, as seen in Colossians 1:16-17 : "For in Him all things were created, things in heaven and on earth, visible and invisible... He is before all things, and in Him all things hold together."

Christ's Return
The Second Coming of Christ is a future event anticipated by Christians, where Jesus will return to judge the living and the dead and establish His eternal kingdom. This is affirmed in Revelation 22:12 : "Behold, I am coming soon, and My reward is with Me, to give to each one according to what he has done."

Christ's Role in Salvation
Central to Christian belief is the role of Christ in salvation. Ephesians 2:8-9 states, "For it is by grace you have been saved through faith, and this not from yourselves; it is the gift of God, not by works, so that no one can boast." Salvation is understood as a gift from God, made possible through the grace and sacrifice of Jesus Christ.

Christ's Titles
Throughout the New Testament, various titles are ascribed to Jesus, reflecting His nature and work. These include "Messiah" (John 1:41), "Son of God" (Matthew 16:16), "Lamb of God" (John 1:29), and "King of Kings" (Revelation 19:16). Each title highlights a different aspect of His identity and mission.
