obyrich: What type of Oil? Crude oil, olive oil, palm oil or 'special anointing' oil sourced from a spiritual market?

Goshen360: @ OP,

Do you want to hold to your "church" believe and teaching or you want us to discuss "sound doctrine" concerning anointing oil I'm in for the discussion - we need to prove every truth from the word of God.

Segun agagu: Genesis 28:18-19
18 Early the next morning Jacob took the stone he had placed under his head and set it up as a pillar and poured oil on top of it. 19 He called that place Bethel, though the city used to be called Luz

Exodus 25:6-9
6 olive oil for the light; spices for the anointing oil and for the fragrant incense; 7 and onyx stones and other gems to be mounted on the ephod and breastpiece.

8 "Then have them make a sanctuary for me, and I will dwell among them. 9 Make this tabernacle and all its furnishings exactly like the pattern I will show you.

Exodus 29:7-8
7 Take the anointing oil and anoint him by pouring it on his head. 8 Bring his sons and dress them in tunics

There are sOoooooooo many..if I begin..I won't finish ..check d Exodus 29:7-8. Wat do have to say about that...waiting

Plus, if you have other assignment...go and do it, it's time for me to sleep here because of time difference. I will resume this thread when I wake up.

Snowwy: @Op,
The use of anointing oil by the church is very right. However, note that everything can be abused.
Scriptures below show the use of anointing all in the NT.:

Mark 6:13
And they cast out many devils, and anointed with oil many that were sick, and healed them.

This is when the disciples were allocated in twos by Jesus to go on evangelism.

James 5:14-15
14 Is any sick among you? let him call for the elders of the church; and let them pray over him, anointing him with oil in the name of the Lord:
15 And the prayer of faith shall save the sick, and the Lord shall raise him up; and if he have committed sins, they shall be forgiven him.

That is another scripture above on anointing the sick. However note that it is the prayer of faith that heals and not the anointing oil. The anointing all can be a conduit but faith in God and not the oil is the key.


You can also see where anointing oil was used for consecration in the OT and Jesus also mentioned anointing with oil on the head as a sign of honour in Luke 7:46.

I will advise you to be be wary of those who claim to always know better than the bible even when the bible clearly states a thing.

May the Holy Spirit continually teach us all things, that is the best teaching that cannot be condemned and it requires lots of sensitivity.

Goshen360:

I know you are referring to me indirectly. The problem with you religious people is that, when someone don't agree with you believe, you tend to be hateful and insultive. On one hand, you make sense when you said, "everything can be abused". On the other hand, you became silly in your final words and being emotional when you said, "...those who claim to always know better than the bible even when the bible clearly states a thing".

Is it the scriptural place of oil am against or the abuse of oil Since you are so spiritual, you should have been able to discern what am against and maybe if you had attempted to answer the questions above, we would have been able to get to a conclusion whether am actually teaching against scriptural place of oil or the abuse of oil.

baseg25: i created a thread concerning anointng service and i mention d use of anointing oil buh sum members of ds gr8 site oppose THE USE OF ANOINTING OIL...

Snowwy: It's ok Goshen.
I do not need your commendation. I simply stated that it can be abused
Just like every other good thing gets abused.
I left a note to be wary however of those against it's use in other words especially with the scriptures were it showed it's use.

You came along guns blazing that I was referring to you. Fine, it is an issue of guilty conscience worrying you, simple.
The message was clear enough.

Snowwy: @Goshen,
I did not read the thread. I advised the OP to be wary of those who claim to know better than the bible even when the scriptures are clear on certain things.
You came along all wounded, called me silly even when the so called 'religious people' never uttered an insultive and hateful word against anyone.
Seriously I expected much more from you and I am amazed at the level you have been drawn to.

Goshen360: You don finish your sermon ....@ Image123

[s]At least, let's start with what oil is and what the purpose of oil is, what and how is oil to be used, when is oil to be used? Since you are teaching, you should have covered these areas.....I know too well your organization do drink oil, at least I used to attend in the past.[/s]

And less I forget, why tell me am being an annoying bully...what's the meaning of that So I should not talk anymore because we disagree on an issue/topic
