But "Christ" is simply the Greek form of "Mashiach"; it is not a name 
but a function and a title. You may disagree on whether Jesus of 
Nazareth can be identified as the Christ/Messiah/Mashiach or given this 
title, and you may disagree with Harold's teaching about the role of the 
Christ/Messiah/Mashiach (based on the New Testament), but it makes a 
nonsense to suggest that Christ and Mashiach are different concepts.
