The roles and titles aid Christology through the provision of detailed information on various aspects of Jesus’ life. They contribute towards an understanding of the meaning and identity of Christ (McMahon 32). Since Christology is the study of Jesus and his mission, the titles and roles provide it with relevant and comprehensive information. According to McMahon (134), he fulfilled the roles of various titles including the Son of God, Son of Man, Messiah, High Priest, and Lord. The manner in which he fulfilled the roles contributed towards various areas of Christology including Christ’s birth, Deity, humanity, death, and resurrection. For instance, the title of ‘Suffering Servant’ was fulfilled through Jesus’ suffering and atonement for the people’s sins. It contributes towards Christology by outlining Jesus’ humanity and Messianic nature.
