Messianistic (adj.)
Referring to an individual who believes they embody or are a modern incarnation of a divine or savior-like figure, such as Jesus Christ. This belief often stems from perceived parallels between their life experiences and those of the religious figure, leading them to see themselves as a source of spiritual or societal transformation. A Messianistic person is typically revered and adored by a devoted following, often to the point of cult-like worship, while simultaneously being despised or misunderstood by others, evoking feelings of persecution or martyrdom, akin to those associated with historical figures like Christ.
