NASB | 1 John 2:27 As for you, the anointing which you received from Him abides in you, and you have no need for anyone to teach you; but as His anointing teaches you about all things, and is true and is not a lie, and just as it has taught you, you abide in Him. |
AMPLIFIED 2015 | 1 John 2:27 As for you, the anointing [the special gift, the preparation] which you received from Him remains [permanently] in you, and you have no need for anyone to teach you. But just as His anointing teaches you [giving you insight through the presence of the Holy Spirit] about all things, and is true and is not a lie, and just as His anointing has taught you, you must remain in Him [being rooted in Him, knit to Him]. |
Bible Question (short): Anointing?? |
Question (full): Hello Saints, I already read the previous postings on this verse and still have a question that was debatable in the context the remarks were made. Simply put, I know that all believers are anointed by God (2 Cor. 1:21), that abides in us (the Holy Spirit), but is there also another such anointing in the case of "spiritual gifts." Such as, a brother being 'anointed' with the gift of discernment or a sister being 'anointed' with the gift of prophecy? Thanks Saints, Lissa |
