Discuss Michael's answer to: What does the word unction mean with reference to the holy spirit?

the Latin word unction or unct or ung are from the root word in English "to anoint"::::::::::::::::::::::::::::::::::::::::::::::::::::::::::::::::::

With reference to the Holy Spirit "it is the anointing with the Holy Spirit as it would be with anointing with oil." "It is to cover or smear with the Holy Spirit; the person so that they would have the POWER of the Holy Spirit to perform God's will."

Jesus told the

Disciples

to wait until they were endued with power;;;;;;;;;;;;;;;;;;;;;;;;; Luke24:49

I am going to send you what my Father has promised; but stay in the city until you have been clothed with power from on high." ~NIV

So I got me a pen and a paper, and I made up my own little sign. I said, "Thank you Lord, for thinkin' about me, I'm alive and doin' fine."

Lady Aban Ceaulosevic Thinks this answer is Helpful:

Michael, thank you for a choice bit of wisdom. Unction comes from the Latin root word for unguent: an emollient that we paste thickly over a wound to help healing take place and to restore energy to an injured person by restoring good health.

Good spiritual health is every bit as important as good mental health and good physical health. The benefits of all three forms of good health cannot be over emphasized.

Dfrogpong must be in a terrible state of mind. I have seen this before. She saw the wise and kind words of a good man citing the wisdom of the Scripture. Then she screams words of hatred under her actual screen name, one of many instances that each of her split personalities remembers but the other personalities do not know, then under one of her other personalities she cuts and pastes derision against the sainted dead.

Perhaps it is time to ease up on dfrogpong so that she might feel better about returning to psychotherapy. Might we all show her a bit of needed compassion, whether she deserves it or not?

One day you will need to draw on your savings account of grace with The Master. The way you make deposits is by bestowing grace to those who need it.

Can we vote a bit of forgiveness to dfrogpong?

Rocmike aka American Patriot you have been stealing peoples monikers and posting under them for a long time. You have also used your own aliases monikers and claimed someone stole them to take the heat off of you. Once a loser always a loser. You stole froggies moniker. I see anonymous is also pretending to be froggie.
