Where is “ anointed “ mentioned in 1 Corinthians 15 ? This is just more of the JWs heretical beliefs being added to scripture. That’s a no no since God says plagues are added to those who add or take away from His word .
hope this helps !!!
I keep asking people where it's said in scripture that angels are immortal and no one has shown me that, but people on this site keep saying the angels are immortal so it's strange that someone would say it's wrong that I call the Corinthian congregation that Paul was writing to, the anointed of God just because the word anointed isn't in the scriptures.
The year is 33 C.E. It's the day of Pentecost. A group of about 120 disciples are gathered together in the upper room of a house. (
Acts 1:13-15; 2:1) A few days earlier, Jesus had instructed them to remain in Jerusalem because they were to receive a special gift. (
Acts 1:4, 5)
“Suddenly there is a noise from heaven, just like that of a rushing, stiff breeze.” The sound fills the whole house. Then, “tongues as if of fire” appear above the disciples’ heads, and they all become “filled with holy spirit.” (
Acts 2:2-4) In this spectacular way, YHWH God pours out his holy spirit on that group, he amounts them. (
Acts 1:8) They become the first to be anointed by holy spirit and given the hope of ruling with Jesus in heaven.
Moses was called a Christ, or Anointed One, because Moses was appointed by YHWH God to be his prophet and representative, the leader and deliverer of Israel. (
Hebrews 11:24-26)
Fulfilling many prophecies in the Hebrew Scriptures, Jesus of Nazareth proved to be the Anointed One of YHWH God and could properly be called Messiah, or Christ, which titles convey that thought. (
Matthew 1:16; Hebrew 1:8, 9) Jesus was anointed with YHWH God spirit. (
Matthew 3:16) This was YHWH God appointment of Jesus as King, Prophet, and High Priest, and so he was referred to as YHWH God Anointed at Psalm 2:2;
Acts
4:26, 27.
Just as God anointed his Only Begotten Son with Holy Spirit God has chosen from among righteous mankind to be anointed with Holy Spirit. These are the ones who are chosen by God to have a resurrection like Jesus and be kings, judges and priests with him in that Messianic Kingdom ruling over the earth.
