Episode Notes: God's Anointing for Christian Believers. (2 Kings 9: 1-37)

We don’t use the word very often anymore, but it’s a deeply biblical word — anointing. Some preachers use it so loosely that you almost raise an eyebrow. Others hardly mention it at all. But Scripture is clear: God anoints people.

 In the Old Testament, prophets were anointed, priests were anointed, and Kings were anointed. And in the New Testament, John tells us plainly in 1 John 2 that believers, all genuine Christian believers, are anointed as well.

 So, the question becomes: What does it mean to be anointed?  And what does that look like for us today?

 To answer that, we’re going to look at one of the clearest pictures of anointing in the Old Testament. The moment when God anointed a man named Jehu. His story gives us a window into what anointing meant then, and what it means for us now.
