    Anointed

    Saturday, October 20, 2007, 06:58 AM [General]

       The word "Christ" is not just another name for Jesus, but a reference to the Anointed and the Anointing that was on Him and in Him.
       In the same way, the word "Christians" means more than just followers of Jesus. It means "the anointeds."
        The same yoke-destroying Anointing that was on Jesus is available to you.

        Look again at 1 John 2: "the anointing which ye have received of him abideth in you, and ye need not that any man teach you: but as the same anointing teacheth you of all things, and is truth, and is no lie, and even as it hath taught you, ye shall abide in him" (verse 27).

         Those last two words could also be translated "in it." In other words, the phrase could either be exhorting believers to abide in the Anointed One, Jesus, or to abide in the anointing itself. Both interpretations are correct because you can't separate the Anointed and the anointing. If you're in the Anointed One, then you're in the anointing.

         I encourage you, find every reference that uses the word Christ in the New Testament. Each time Christ is used translate it into "the Anointed and His Anointing." Then meditate on the new revelation of this meaning in each scripture. Start with the verses that say "in Christ" or "through Christ" and translate them "in (through) the Anointed and (through) His Anointing." It will change your life.


        If you're "in Christ," there's an anointing for everything you're called to do, no matter how small or how great the task.

        That's what the Apostle Paul meant when he said, "I can do all things through Christ (the Anointed and His Anointing) which strengtheneth me" (Philippians 4:13). Notice that he didn't say "who strengtheneth me" but "which strengtheneth me." He was talking about the anointing.

        The same anointing that enabled you to be born again will heal your body, help you succeed in business, and empower you to prosper spirit, soul, body and in every aspect of your life. (See Luke 5:20-24.) The word "Christ" is not just another name for Jesus, but a reference to the Anointed and the Anointing that was on Him and in Him. In the same way, the word "Christians" means more than just followers of Jesus. It means "the anointeds." The same yoke-destroying Anointing that was on Jesus is available to you.

    Great post, That "ointment', the gifts of the HOLY SPIRIT,mentioned, but ST.John does not mention that once you recieve the teaching of the Divine Spirit you have no farther need of the ministry of the Gospel. NO!But the teaching of the Spirit of GOD. No man, howsoever holy, wise,or pure, can ever be in such a state as to have no need of the Gospel ministry. Those who think so give the highest proof that they have never yet learned of CHRIST or his Spirit. Some times it's not the will of GOD, & the cause of kingdom come for all faithful followers to be full in material things, or a lack of pain & humility. Just the oppitsite, but GOD gives us strength, & fills our needs, that's grace. The rain falls on the good as much as it does the evil. We as Christians look for the unseen treasures & can be sure that we have an eternal life that is far better than this one. Anything, person,or whatever we have a good job, nice things, are all perishable & we own nothing accept CHRIST as our Savior. We are pilgrims, & we'll be home in the next life. This is a great topic....
