Some people use initial capitals on all pronouns referring to Jesus or God, as a sign of respect. I have then seen some scholars similarly use initial capitals on all pronouns referring to all gods, in order to demonstrate equal respect.

The King James Bible does not capitalise the pronouns referring to Jesus or God, and I usually follow this precedent.

No.

There is no grammar rule that says you need to capitalize the first letter of a pronoun that refers to either God or Jesus.

However, it is customary in most christian religions, to capitalize such pronouns, but it is not obligatory.

Some people capitalise it, as Son of God. If you are using this phrase a a specific, alternative name for Jesus, then it would be grammatically correct to capitalise it.

Gospel should be capitalized when used as a specific reference to any or all of the four Gospels, for example, the four Gospels, the Holy Gospel, the Gospel of Matthew, and in titles of documents. Gospel should be capitalized when beginning a sentence. Gospel should be lowercase when used as a general term meaning "good news" or "story", for example, "the gospel as presented in the New Testament," "Paul took the gospel to the Romans"; of Jesus Christ, when referring to the law and the gospels; when referring to the law and the gospels; when referring to the third reading in the service.


Should messiah be capitalized?

Yes *No. The original idea of "messiah" was "anointed one." Early Jewish peoples were not necessarily expecting one messiah. The idea of one, true Messiah is a later construct, usually referring to Jesus. If you are using Messiah as a name for the figure of Jesus, or possibly someone else, then it should be capitalized. If you are using the word to talk about early Judaism, it probably should not be capitalized.


Shouldn't the name Jesus Christ be Jesus the Christ?

That is a wonderful question, but the Bible does not use much punctuation, so in reality, speaking of the grammar, it is suppose to be written Jesus, Christ. not Jesus Christ. As many references in the KJV of the Bible, is Christ Jesus, written correctly Christ, Jesus, or Jesus, Christ. It is referring to Christ.
