Is
it Christ or is it Anti-Christ???
The Holy Anointing Oil of God is described in Exodus 30:23.
Take thou also unto thee three principal spices, of liquid Myrrh five
hundred shekels, and of sweet Cinnamon half so much, even two hundred and
fifty shekels, and of sweet Calamus (Kaneh Bosem in Hebrew) two hundred and fifty shekels, and of
Cassia five hundred shekels after the shekel of the sanctuary, and of oil
olive an hin. And thou shalt make it an oil of Holy ointment compound after the
art of apothecary: it shall be a Holy anointing oil. Exodus
30:22-25
According to the bible this was the only oil to be
used.
This shall be a "holy anointing oil" unto me through out your
generations. Whosoever compoundeth any like it, or whosoever putteth any of
it upon a stranger, shall even be cut off from his people. Exodus
30:31-33
Tertullian of Carthage (160 - 225 AD) writes that after water
baptism, " we are thoroughly anointed with a
blessed unction, (a practice derived), from the old discipline, wherein on
entering the priesthood, then were wont to be anointed with oil from a horn,
ever since Aaron was anointed by Moses. Whence Aaron is called "Christ".
Tertullian of Carthage "On Baptism".
For Jesus to take the title "Christ" he must have been anointed with
the Holy Oil as described in Exodus 30:23. There are other early
Christians that state that it is by this anointing that we became
Christians.
The Chrism or (anointing) is superior to baptism, for it is from the
word chrism that we are called Christians. It is from the olive
tree that we got the chrism, and from the chrism, the resurrection.
For the Father anointed the Son, and the Son anointed the Apostles, and the
Apostles anointed us. He who has been anointed possesses everything.
He possesses the Resurrection, the Light, the Cross, and the Holy Spirit.
Gnostic Gospel of Philip.
"Are you unwilling to be anointed with the Oil of God? Wherefore we are
called Christians on this account, because we are anointed with the oil of God."
Theophilus of Antioch (181AD)
But as “Christ” means “the anointed” What does
“Anti-Christ” mean? “Anti” in Greek means “Opposed
to” or “Instead of”. The Anti-Christ would then mean
“Opposed to the anointed” or “Instead of the anointed”.
For false Christ's or (false anointed ones) and false prophets will appear and
perform great signs and miracles to deceive even the elect.
Matthew 24:24
Today the Roman Catholic Churches, use Pure Olive Oil, sprinkled
with powered Balsam, and blessed by a Bishop at lent. Here we find
the “instead of anointing”.
The Coptic Orthodox use a Myron oil which consists of over 30 spices.
The Myron Oil is based on a tradition that Saint Mark took with him the spices
used at Jesus burial to Alexandria. Whether or not this is true is
unknown, but here again we have the “Instead of Oil”
There are other Churches that boil down various other
configurations of the Holy Oil. Some include wine, salt, and other
ingredients, boiled with oil, as the “instead of Holy
Oil”.
Most protestant Churches offer no anointing at all. Here we find the
“opposed to anointing”.
It appears, that in the Christian World, so preoccupied with
calling themselves, Christians or “The Anointed Ones”, we have no
place for the “Holy Anointing Oil of God”, as described in the Exodus
30:23
Could it be that the Churches have been deceived, regarding the
anointing? If this is so, surely this would have been prophesied.
Now the Spirit speaketh expressly, that in the latter times some shall depart
from the faith, giving heed to seducing spirits, and Doctrines of
devils.
Speaking lies in hypocrisy; having their conscience seared with a hot
Iron; forbidding to marry, and commanding them to abstain from meats, which
God hath created to be received with thanksgiving of them that know the truth.
For every creature of God is good, and nothing to be refused, if it be
received with thanksgiving.
1 Timothy 4:1-4
Regarding the “abstaining of Meats” created by God we must look to
Genesis
1:29
And God said, Behold I have given you every herb bearing seed, which is upon
the earth, and every tree, in which is the fruit of a tree yielding seed;
to you it shall be as “meat”. Genesis 1:29
Certainly the “Forbidding to marry” is easy to understand since the
Holy
Oil requires meat of Cannabis or Marijuana to produce. Christians that
believe that the “Holy Anointing Oil” must be used in Baptism, are
therefore forbidden enter the Bridal Chamber of Jesus Christ. Babies are baptized, once in a lifetime,
are not permitted Re-Baptism as Adults. Thus we are “Forbidden
to Marry unto Jesus Christ”
If anyone becomes a Son of the Bridal Chamber, he will receive the light.
If anyone does not receive it here, he will not be able to receive it in
the other place. Gospel of Phillip
Sadly a simple look at Christian Churches globally, we find that NONE
offer the anointing with the Holy Anointing Oil of God, as described
in Exodus 30:23.
The anointing with Gods Holy Oil is the most important of all the
sacraments. Without this anointing, many believe they cannot
receive spiritual resurrection, or are they rightfully called Christians.
Most of the Protestant reformers considered the office of Pope to be the seat
of Anti-Christ, and the Catholic anointing to be the Mark of the Beast.
The reformers such as Martin Luther, John Calvin, John Wesley,
William Tyndale and many others, all saw the Roman Catholic Church to be
the Mystery Babylon, Drunk with the Blood of the Saints. Many of these
reformers were themselves executed or burnt at the stake as heretics.
William Tyndale was burnt at the stake for translating the Bible into English.
Reading the Bible was considered a heresy. Christians were forbidden for
centuries, to possess the scriptures in any language. Reading the
Bible was considered to be proof that persons were heretics.
John Dowling in 1853 wrote:
From the birth of the Popery, to the present time, it is estimated by
careful and credible historians that more than FIFTY MILLIONS of the human
family have been slaughtered for the crime of heresy by popish persecutors, an
average of more than 40,000 religious murders for every year of the
existence of the popery.
The Catholic Church denies that 50,000,000 persecutions occurred.
Most Catholic apologists do admit that it was a dark time
in the church.
For over 1400 years the Roman Catholics hunted down Gnostic Christians and
others. They considered it their duty and right to
interrogate and execute heretics, under papal authority. Even the Knights
Templar's were exterminated as heretics during the inquisition.
Pope Innocent VIII, in 1484 issued a Papal Bull condemning an alleged
outbreak of witchcraft in Germany, and deputized two Friars as inquisitors
to end the outbreak. These Friars wrote the notorious "Witches Hammer"
or Malleus Maleficarum as a guide to inquisitors to identify, torture, and
destroy witches, and became one of the bloodiest documents in history.
Certain herbs were established during the inquisition in connection with the
practice of witchcraft including cannabis. Possession of these herbs
was proof that the person was a witch.
The Church, while denying that God gave every seed bearing herb,
including cannabis, shamelessly tortured and murdered midwives,
herbalists, and others, burning them at the stake as witches.
These so called witch hunts were financed by the confiscation of lands and
properties of the accused. In some cases the dead were declared heretics
and excommunicated to confiscate the properties of those persons children.
But the commercial use of cannabis continued through out this period.
The Spanish carried hemp or cannabis seed throughout the New World. This
was necessary in the event that a ship was wrecked that new sail and rigging
could be made.
The Catholic Church today still denies that Cannabis is a herb of God as given
in Genesis 1-29. In 2001 Pope John Paul rejected legalization, and
called Marijuana and the Drug economy “Death Trafficking”, and recently
suggested that Governments should consider Marijuana a Hard Drug.
Since cannabis is the only drug being considered in many countries for
legalization this would better be described as a statement against cannabis,
and of course the Holy Oil of God.
Interestingly the Protestant Reformers, eliminated the practice of
anointing and the Chrismation from baptism. They saw no Biblical basis
for anointing in the New Testament. For most of the Protestant Reformers all
that was needed for grace was faith and water baptism.
Grace by the Mysteries of Anointing, Chrismation, and
Bridal Chamber, which were never included in the Bible, were done away
with by these reformers.
The Persecution Continues
The United States claims to have Freedom of Religion, yet it is illegal
to make the Holy Anointing Oil of God.
Possession, of the 6 pounds of marijuana that it would take to make the Holy
Anointing Oil, is punishable by up to 30 years in prison, in some states.
Cultivation of even 1 plant is a felony in most states, as well at the Federal
Level.
George Washington and Thomas Jefferson both grew cannabis. Under current
Federal Law, both of these Presidents would be liable to the
death penalty.
The American Indians are permitted to use Peyote as a sacrament but Christians
are denied the right to make the Holy Anointing Oil of God.
So for those Christians, that believe in the Holy Anointing Oil ,
spiritual resurrection is not possible, without severe consequences.
Persecution of Christianity in the United States is alive and well,
unless you accept the “Mark of the Beast”.
Many religions exist that believe marijuana or cannabis is a sacrament, even
the Tree of Life. Rastifarians, certain Ethiopian Coptics, various
independent Christian and Gnostic Christians, as well as certain
Muslim, Hindu, and Zoroastrian Sects, are routinely arrested and denied
the right to use cannabis as a sacrament.
Interestingly, the oppression of Cannabis is largely due to the lobbying
efforts of the Churches. Most of these Churches, offer no anointing at
all, and literally have no right to call themselves, Christians or
“anointed ones”.
Most of the Protestant churches only offer a “Water Baptism”. The
Protestant churches that do give a symbolic anointing use pure Olive Oil, as
the “instead of anointing”.
Is it illegal worldwide to make the Holy Anointing Oil of God or receive the
anointing?
Religious Cannabis users are routinely forbidden to use religion as a legal
defense in the United States. Churches are tried as conspirators, having their homes and
churches confiscated. Children are taken away, and these people
are thrown into prison for exceedingly long sentences under the criminal
conspiracy laws. For a Christian to attempt to make a full batch of the
Anointing Oil, they risk up to 30 years in prison in many States.
The Canadian “Church of the Universe” is among the churches that believe
that cannabis is a sacrament. At the time of filming this
documentary, they were suing the Canadian Government, to permit
cannabis for Religious use and as a Church Sacrament in Canada.
Hopefully one day, this Church and others will be permitted to make the
Holy Oil of God, and offer the Fire Baptism to those who desire it.

Medical Marijuana
Along with anointing, Jesus also uses the Holy Oil for healing.
Imagine the power of the “ Holy Anointing Oil of God” given to a sick
person, by a Priest or man of faith, through the Holy Spirit, with
invocations to God and Jesus.
What power could withstand it. Certainly the Holy Anointing Oil would
have been a powerful curing tool. We find and interesting insight
with-in the Acts of Thomas:
Thou holy oil given unto us for sanctification, secret mystery
whereby the cross was shown unto us, thou art the straightener of crooked
limbs. “Acts of Thomas”
Is any among you sick? Let him call for the
elders of the assembly, and let them pray over him, anointing him with oil
in the name of the Lord, and the prayer of faith will heal him who is
sick, and the Lord will raise him up. If he has committed sins,
he will be forgiven. James 5:14-16
"And they cast out many devils, and anointed with oil many that were
sick, and healed them." (Mark 6:13)
In the “Acts of Peter and the Twelve Apostles,” written in the
second century AD, Jesus gives the disciples an unguent box and a
"pouch full of medicine" and instructs them to go into the city and heal the
sick. Jesus instructs them that they must heal the bodies first before
they can heal the heart.
On November 5th, 1996 the voters of the State of California, passed the
Compassionate use act. This act allowed for the distribution of Marijuana to
the sick. Since that time several clinics have been opened to supply
cannabis. These Clinics were under permit with the local and State
authorities. The police were notified, and all permits were obtained,
under the new State law.
Yet the Federal Government has arrested most of these clinics charging them
under the conspiracy laws and have charged their organizers up to 30 years
each under the conspiracy. In the trial phases these people were
not even permitted to submit evidence that they were growing cannabis
for a clinic to be distributed to the sick, or even mention that they were
being charged as attempting to distribute cannabis under the new State Law.
On June 7th 2005, The Supreme Court of the United States ruled that the
Federal Government has the right to enforce its ban on Medical Marijuana,
even in States where Medical Marijuana has been legalized by the Voters.
The voters rights in 10 States have been denied. Millions of sick and
dying are now denied their right to cannabis as a medicine, and face
property confiscation and prison.
What would Jesus have done? Jesus used this very oil for healing, yet it
is illegal today to possess or manufacture the Oil. Is it Christ
or is it Anti-Christ?
The Holy Oil of God (or seal of God) is prophesied to be returned along
with the incense in Revelation 7. Why does it need to be returned?
Because Anti-Christ has deceived the entire Christian world with a False
Anointing or no Anointing at all. But then all of that was foretold.
Isn't it time to return the Holy Anointing Oil of God?
