      He was Jewish but I guess you could also see him as the first member of the movement he started, which later became separately identified as Christian. But at the time they didn’t have that distinction.

      So, on the one hand, on the other situation. Jesus didn’t identify as a Christian for sure though

        To be fair, he wasn’t crucified until he died… So he wasn’t “Christ” until the very end, I’m thinking.

            Right, but he didn’t do much after that though, did he. So he didn’t walk around much “being” Christ.

      I’ve actually heard people say he was the first Christian, which I guess means he worshipped himself?

        It’s just an honorary post humus title.

          For the record, I’m pretty sure it’s “posthumous.” I read that as “post hummus” and got very confused about what Jesus has to do with chickpea-based dips for a second.

            Even better, humus is a layer of soil and it’s not inaccurate to refer to most people after death as “post soil,” though Jesus is an exception there.

            I wasn’t sure, so I leaned into the autocorrect suggestion. 🤷🏻‍♂️

              You’re totally good; I just have this compulsion to correct misused homophones. It makes me pretty insufferable to have in a text thread, but I can’t help it sometimes

                No worries! I’m always up for learning!
