Anointing With Oil (Understanding Spirituals)

Using anointing oil to minister to people is a controversial
issue among believers. Some believers detest its use so
much that they walk out of meetings when it is used. The aim
of this book is to give us biblical insight into the purpose of the
anointing oil and how it can be used for the edification and
blessing of believers. With regard to this subject we don’t have
to condemn others for their position.

It is scriptural to use anointing oil in ministration but not
mandatory. The law of liberty allows those whose faith is
enhanced by the use of the oil to use it and those whose faith
does not require it not to use it. Those who use it are not more
spiritual than those who don’t use it and those who don’t use it
don’t necessarily have more faith in the Word of God than
those who use it.
