There are many, many titles of Christ in both the New and Old Testaments. As one prays and studies them, they amount to a mini- Catechesis of the Lord Jesus.
Presented below are over 150 titles of Christ. I have also presented “hot-links” to the Scriptures from which they are drawn for your further study. The list is compiled from various sources, but most come from The Catholic Source Book, compiled and edited by Fr. Peter Klein.
