    Hi Danny,

    Jesus of Nazareth was anointed by the Holy Spirit and power.

    It all began with the preaching of John as the same scripture tells us. ACTS 10

    The Spirit of God manifests in spiritual actions and none were reported before that baptism.

    Hi,

    I never imagined that the anointing of Jesus at the Jordan would be denied by so many.

    The Christmas myth is powerful.

    DANNY DABBS,

    Jesus was foreordained to be the Christ and thus Scripture can say what will be as of it is. It is really a question of what the culture was at that time and how they would voiced the idea and perhaps other passages give us insight into that. I do not know. I am not sure it is important either.

    Hi Nick,

    You have your facts screwed up. No-one is denying Jesus was anointed with God’s Holy Spirit at Jordan.
    What we are denying is: that the spirit of Christ came to Jesus at Jordan – the bible says he was born Christ.

    Hi Danny,

    Don’t let them confuse you with their rudimentary logic.
    Here is the verse that confirms what you believe…

    “But thou, Bethlehem Ephratah, though thou be little among the thousands of Judah,
    yet out of thee shall he come forth unto me that is to be ruler in Israel;
    whose goings forth have been from of old, from everlasting.” (Micah 5:2)

    Micah 5:2 says Christ came from everlasting to Bethlehem, NOT TO JORDAN!

    Clarification…

    From everlasting to Bethlehem,
    not from everlasting to Jordan.

    Hi ED,

    Yes the Spirit of Christ is from everlasting.

    In the beginning the word was with God and was God.

     

    Here is the testimony of Peter.

    Acts 10.27f

    I take it you all know what has been reported all over Judea about Jesus of Nazareth,

    beginning in Galilee with the baptism John preached;

    of the way God anointed him with the Holy Spirit and power.

    He went about doing good works and healing all who were in the grip of the devil, and God was with him.

    Hi ED

    So he was not anointed with the Spirit of ANOINTING.

    How could this be?

    Hi Nick,

    Because HE IS the spirit of anointing (The Christ).

    “And John bare record, saying, I saw the Spirit descending from heaven like a dove, and it abode upon him.
    And I knew him not: but he that sent me to baptize with water, the same said unto me, Upon whom thou
    shalt see the Spirit descending, and remaining on him, the same is he which baptizeth with the
    HolySpirit. And I saw, and bare record that this is the Son of God.”
    (John 1:32-34)

    Hi Ed,

    He is the spirit of anointing.

    Can sons of man be spirits of anointing?

    Are you?

    Hi Nick,

    Do you yet not believe Christ is God’s Son? What will
    it take for you to believe the biblical narrative?

    From
    everlasting to Bethlehem (Micah 5:2)
    and born The Christ (Luke 2:11)

    Hi Nick,

    The bible says many received the HolySpirit by the laying on of hands.

    Hi Ed,

    But none of them are said to be spirits of anointing.

    Hi Ed,

    Christ means anointed.

    So you think he was born anointed and then was anointed at the Jordan?

    Two anointings?

    Hi Ed,

    So the second anointing gave him the words and abilities of God

    but the first did nothing???

    Hi Ed,

    So it is your belief that the anointed one needed to be anointed again at the Jordan?

    Hi Ed,

    Scripture says that Jesus of Nazareth was anointed with the Holy Spirit and power

    but you think Jesus Christ needed to be anointed again?

    Hi @ all!

    The Gnostic occultists believed that Jesus was not the Christ, but Christ came down on him at his baptism.

    The Bible doesn’t say that Jesus came in the flesh and later became the Christ.
    1 John 4:2 By this you know the Spirit of God: every spirit that confesses that Jesus Christ has come in the flesh is from God.

    Jesus is the Christ!

    blessings!

    Hi Danny,

    Yes it does not say JESUS came in the flesh.

    It says JESUS CHRIST.

    There is a very important difference-the anointing.

    Hi Danny,

    Yes Christ means ANOINTED.

    Jesus Christ is the anointed one-since the Jordan
