Hello, Kalos. I always like hearing from you. You don't seem to understand. God is no respecter of persons. The anointing IS for all. I am not saying that some Christians are anointed and others are not. I am saying that God pours out His Spirit on whom He will. That pouring out is the anointing. It comes when God decides to release it. It is not a gift that it can be developed. It is an action by God through the Holy Spirit. You can pray and ask God for His anointing, but it is up to Him if He releases it or not. It is a pouring out and is an experience. Experiencing God, not just reading about Him. Janae |

Hi Janae, "That pouring out is the anointing. It comes when God decides to release it." That is not quite right. For anointing cannot come if we already have been anointed. And you cannot pray for the anointing if you already have the anointing. For the Scriptures tell us that we are God's anointed (we ARE already anointed). For as Moses (who was anointed) did not see the face of God, yet God passed His Glory in front of him and afterwards Moses had to wear a vail over his face because of the radiance (he had an experience). This was the Glory of the Lord not the anointing. Jesus said, Were two or more are gathered in My name, there I will be also. The Spirit that is in you which is the Spirit of Christ is bringing you into the Glory of the Lord. This is the presence that one experiences. As God has shown Himself as a Great Cloud of Glory in the Tabernacle to verify His presence, so the Lord verifies His presence by the closeness and the fulness of the Holy Spirit to His children. We do use the phrase "It is a pouring out" and this is a truism for it is a True Blessing. terrib This I speak and not of the Lord, but if the closeness of the Spirit were not limited we would be translated. |

I see a number of Greek words in the NT that are translated "anoint." I wonder if we can persuade Brother Tim to give us a short word study on these various words? | ||||||
