In the Old Testament, an anointed one would be a king or a member
of the temple hierarchy, such as a priest or a Levite. In the New
Testament, Paul introduced an entirely different understanding of
Christ. A Christ of God was anyone anointed with the life of God as
His offspring, whether or not that the person was aware of being a
child of God. The word "Christian" applied only to those who chose
to be born again by being raised from the dead. Thus, we must let
go of the life we have been living in order to take on the life of
God. We are then a Christ of God, just as Jesus was a Christ of
God. In a detailed study of this concept, the Reverend Canon George
Cummings contextualizes his lifelong reading and study of the
Scriptures, following the thread of the message of the Gospel from
its origin in the Old Testament to its triumphant re-emergence and
re-signification in the writings the New Testament. Drawing upon
his years of reflection and use of Greek text, Cummings posits a
conception of the presence of God as Christ in us, so that we might
live the life of God as it is revealed in the person of Jesus, the
Messenger of the New Covenant.
