What does it mean that Christ is the Messiah?

Answered in 1 source

Christ being the Messiah means He is the anointed one sent by God to save His people from their sins.

The term 'Messiah' denotes the anointed one chosen by God to fulfill the covenant promises made to His people. As presented in Matthew 1:21, the name Jesus signifies His mission: 'for He shall save His people from their sins.' This highlights that Christ is not merely a prophet or a good teacher; He embodies the fulfillment of God’s redemptive plan. His role as the Messiah includes His sacrificial death and resurrection, through which He accomplishes salvation by paying the penalty for our sins, thereby reconciling us with God.
