The Anointing Oil Part 1

Alright, now then let’s go to 1st John. If you’re lost, if you’re confused, if I have not made this clear, let us stop right now and count. Are you clear? (question) How to minister to the Lord.

Okay, the oil is poured on everything. Let us just say that when we have a proper situation, a really proper situation, the oil will be poured on the Church, on the believers, on the prayer, and on the word. It will be poured on every single sacrifice. Now, brother, do you know what the sacrifices are? There are five of them, but I don’t mean what five they are, but what are they? All right, the first one is the what? The burnt offering? What are the other ones? Just name some: Peace offering, the meal offering, the trespass offering, the burnt offering. The burnt offering came first, then the first fruit, and the Passover offering. In all, there are five. I seem to have forgotten one myself. There is the trespass offering, the burnt offering, the peace offering, the meal offering, and the offering of the first fruits. What are these? Yeah, that’s it. What are they? What are they? What are they? The burnt offering. It’s offered once a year for the sins of everybody. What is it? It’s Christ. What’s the trespass offering? That’s Christ. What’s the peace offering? That’s Christ. He is our peace, speaking of the peace offering. He made our peace; He is our peace.  Alright, what about the meal offering? That is Jesus Christ. And the first fruits? The Only Begotten Son.

Alright, brothers and sisters, why was the oil poured on? It was the symbol that these were the Lord’s, and they were of the Lord. This was of the Lord. He poured onto the Tabernacle. This is to say, this is of the Lord. On the trespass offering, all the offerings, this is the Lord, onto the bread, this is the Lord’s, onto the lamp, this is the Lord’s, onto the priests always the Head coming down on the whole Body. This is the priest. Who is the priest? The Lord Jesus is the priest. I told you, brothers, one of these days you’re going to throw your cover off your sheets off the bed, and we’re going to look up, and say JESUS CHRIST IS  EVERYTHING. He is EVERYTHING.

Now the oil is signifying this. He is the Anointed One, and He is the oil. Maybe we should stop before we get the first John and look at what the oil is. It is first the hin oil, the crushed olive. Then it is made up of four things added to it. The first is myrrh. Myrrh is used for embalming. It was always a symbol of death! The cinnamon and the calamus are sweet smells that ascend. In Exodus 30, I want to make sure which are first.  First is myrrh, cinnamon second, calamus third, and cassia fourth. I’m sorry. The cinnamon and the calamus are sweet, sweet things that grow up out of mud, and they are compounded together as something that is sweet of the Lord. They are sweet offerings, sweet smell, and the instrument itself grows up out of the mud, and then there is the cassia that grows on the mountains. These four things, it takes the two middle ones to make 500. Now, throughout the Old Testament, we have symbols of Myrrh, calamus, cassia, and cinnamon. The cinnamon and the calamus are sweet-smelling powders that are ground up out of plants that grow up out of mud, and then the cassia is something that grows on the mountaintop, and it’s brought down and foot into the oil.

Now, sisters and brothers, you put that together and mix it together, and what do you have? You have the anointing oil. Now what is that? This is what it is. The anointing oil is the Holy Spirit plus the death of Christ. The sweet, resurrected life of Christ, the ascension, and the enthronement of Christ. Who lives in you? I’ll tell you who lives in you, brother. The Spirit lives in you. And who is the Spirit? The Spirit is Father plus the Son, plus the Holy Spirit, yes, but to say it better, it is the Spirit plus Jesus Christ’s death, His resurrection, and His enthronement. There is now what in you? There is God, the Spirit dwelling in you, plus the death, the myrrh plural, there is something in you that kills. There is something in you of death. The Lord willingly offered Himself up to die. He suffered and then died that He might be conformed. The death had something to do with His Sonship. In Romans 1, it says that “Christ was made the Son of God.” The Father had to work into His Son’s death so that through suffering and death, He might be made the Son of God. The death that worked in Christ is now in you. Now, brothers, there is something in you that will kill you. There is something negative, and it works in you to make you a Son of God. You have to go through death so that you might be a son of God. Really a son of God.

In actuality, you see, Jesus Christ is the Son of God, and you’re in Him, and everything He experienced, you experience. And He went through death, and that death work has been implanted, impregnated into you that you might know something of death. Praise God. Praise God for the cinnamon and the calamus. Oh, I just can’t, and I don’t have the words. Maybe when we have an hour for nothing.  Brother, brother, sister, do you know what kind of a life you have in you? I shall never tell you anything greater than what I am about to tell you right now. Do you know what kind of life you have in you?

You have a life in you that passed through death, that’s what kind of life you have got. And there will come a time when you sense the death, and the dealing and the work and you will come down to say oh, Lord, oh, Lord and the death will work to conform you and to teach you and to show you and then there will come a sweet smell, a sweet smell, there will be a rustling and then a quaking and there will burst forth in you the sense of resurrection! And something in you will stop saying, Oh, Lord! Oh Lord, death, oh Lord, death, and it will begin to say Hallelujah, Hallelujah. This is what is in you! And this is just the way (it) He operates in you. This is the only way.

Then, brother, after the sense of resurrection, there is a life in me that cannot be destroyed even by its own work of killing me. Even if it kills me, it gives me life. It is there to kill, but after having killed, it becomes life. Brother, after the hallelujah, after the sweet sense of the Lord resurrecting you, then there comes the enthronement. Three things, brother: the death, the resurrection, and the enthronement are in the Holy Spirit. Someday I want you to know that I am not preaching in the air. The New Testament is so clear; the New Testament makes nothing more clear than this. That in the Spirit is the death, the resurrection, and the enthronement of Christ. In the Spirit, in you, and this is the anointing. There comes after the resurrection the sense of enthronement. Oh Lord, I’m not only resurrected, but I am above all, all, far above all. Lord, there is no power in Satan; he has no place in me. Lord, I am in you on the throne, I am resurrected and victorious. This is what lives in you. This is what works in you, all the day long. That’s what is in you. This is the anointing oil. This is who dwells in you. The Spirit of the Lord plus all the work of Christ. All the work of the death, all the work of the resurrection, and all the work of the ascension. You say the death was just to kill Him? NO. Death did a…thing, resurrection, that He might come out of the grave, no. Have you ever seen all the things the resurrection did? All that is in you. The enthronement, that is just that He might be seated in the heavens? NO, a thousand times No. The resurrection, the ascension, and the enthronement did a thousand things, and all the work that the death of Christ did is in you, working. All the resurrection of Christ and all it did is in you, working. And all of the ascension and the enthronement of Christ and His position above all things is in you.

First John 2. But you have the, and that says, what? In the King James, it says the unction, but does it say in any other translation what? You have the anointing from the Holy. You have the anointing from the Holy. And you know all things. You have the anointing from the Holy and you know all things. And then in verse 27. But the anointing, this is the same word exactly the anointing, which you have received of Him, that is, the Father abides in you. My brother, it stays in you. It is not there sometimes; it is always in you. And you need not that any man teach you, but the same anointing teaches you of all things, and is, not truth, no, mark that word out and is reality, and it is no lie, and even as He has taught you, you abide in Him. He abides in you. He has come down from the father. The anointing is in you. It teaches you all things. It is reality.
