Hah! No. There is a very specific and explicit instance in the bible story when Jesus becomes Christed. Do you know when/where?
He wasn't called "Jesus" till about 500 years ago when the letter "J" was invented.

Hey, you asked when, it's not as though it happened the moment the story was written, whenever that's supposed to have been, lol. Looks like I've got another one on my hands that wants to pretend to take the subject seriously while avoiding the subject. Preferring, instead, to discuss fantasy and fiction.

I'm just asking you for a simple plot device, not a confession before our Lord.

You're the one who brought up "Christian Fundamentals"! You have to know a thing to criticize it properly.

You;re going to have to be more specific then, amigo. When did jesus become christ - according to which schism? It's not a monolith, christology is the main point of divergence. Even more pedantically, according to which gospel within which schism? Here again.....divergence.

According to whom you ask, and which of the conflicting gospel accounts as told by who you ask-
At his birth, after his death, at his baptism, or during his ministry. More specifically, from the moment of creation, or maybe from the moment of ascension, or maybe when he received his vision.

Kind of fitting in a thread about objective truth, huh, all these subjective assessments of the nature of christ, lol?
(and all you got was the shortlist....)

Isn't that when the Holy Spirit descended into him and the sky spoke ~"Good job kid!"
