Book 6 Chapter 10.
Was Jesus ANOINTED TWICE?
The Greek word “Christos”, Strong’s number G5547, that is translated as “Christ” has more than just one meaning.
#1. Christ means ANOINTED by God or the ANOINTING of God, which is the Holy Spirit of God dwelling in the Son of MAN, Jesus, according to Acts 10:38 and many other verses of Scripture.
#2. Christ also means the Messiah or the Savior, according to Acts 2:22,23,36, John 1:41,49, John 4:25,26, and Luke 2:10,11. Plus many more verses of Scripture.
The word Christ is found 571 times in the King James Version, which by the way is a prime number.
Now, Jesus was NOT born ANOINTED. And neither was Jesus born as a King and Savior.
But rather, to that END Jesus was ORDAINED to be born of a woman in order to be ANOINTED or crowned to be APPOINTED or set as God’s King and Savior, according to John 18:33-37, Acts 3:14,15, and Acts 5:30-32, as well as Acts 2:22,23,36.
Jesus was anointed TWICE, first at he baptism to be given a portion of God’s Holy Spirit, according to Acts 10:38.
The anointing of the Holy Spirit was given to the Son of MAN, Jesus, to empower him to overcome sin and do mighty works of healing THROUGH the Eternal Spirit dwelling in him.
Then after the cross, his God and Father was well pleased with his obedience and ANOINTED Jesus to the office of being made the God over the whole earth, according to Hebrews 1:8,9, and Philippians 2:8-11.
And at this second anointing, God GLORIFIED the Son of MAN with ALL power and authority, to receive the FULLNESS of the Godhead to dwell in him, according to Colossians 1:19, Colossians 2:9, John 7:39, and many other passages of Scripture.
Let us begin chapter 10 by reading Acts 2:22-24,36 so that you can see that it was Jesus of Nazareth who God raised from the dead to be MADE both Lord and Christ after the cross and resurrection.
Acts 2:21-36.
“And it shall come to pass, (Meaning that it was PROPHESIED in the Old Testament Scriptures that the one prophesied to come would be GIVEN a NEW NAME by Yahweh, according to Isaiah 62:2-5) that whosoever shall call on the NAME of the Lord shall be saved.
Acts 2:22. You men of Israel, hear these words; Jesus of Nazareth, a MAN APPROVED of God among you by miracles and wonders and signs, which God did by him in the midst of you, as you yourselves also know:
Acts 2:23. Him, (The anointed Son of MAN, Jesus with a PORTION of God’s Spirit dwelling in him from his baptism to the cross) being delivered by the determinate counsel and foreknowledge of God, you have taken, and by wicked hands have crucified and slain: (In other words, God ORDAINED this to happen as a part of God’s PLAN of salvation to redeem mankind and to JUDGE the fallen angels)
Acts 2:24. Whom God has raised up, having loosed the pains of death: because it was not possible that he should be holden of it.
Acts 2:25. For David speaks concerning him, I foresaw the Lord always before my face, for He is on my right hand, that I should not be moved: (Or more correctly translated, the Son of MAN, Jesus, understood the prophecy to be speaking of him.
And thus, Jesus said, “I foresaw Yahweh always before my face, because of Him, me or I am on right hand that I shall not be moved”)
Acts 2:26. Therefore, did my heart rejoice, (Speaking of the heart of the Son of MAN, Jesus, rejoicing with the joy that God set before him to endure the cross to be seated at the right hand of Almighty God, according to Hebrews 12:2 and the many prophecies that testify of the Messiah) and my tongue was glad; moreover also, my flesh shall rest in hope:
Acts 2:27. Because You will not leave my soul in hell, neither will You suffer Your Holy One to see corruption. (Here we clearly see that Yahweh is NOT the Holy One who is a MAN.
And Hosea 11:9 also clearly teaches that God is NOT the MAN, the Holy One in the midst of the people who will execute the WRATH of Yahweh)
Acts 2:28. You have made known to me the ways of LIFE; You shall MAKE me full of joy with Your countenance. (Which we learned in the previous chapter, “B-6 Ch9 Did We Inherit a Sinful NATURE?”, is the GLORY of Yahweh that Yahweh promised to ONLY share with His ELECT, according to Isaiah 42:1-9)
Acts 2:29. Men and brethren, let me freely speak unto you of the patriarch David, that he is both dead and buried, and his sepulcher is with us unto this day.
Acts 2:30. Therefore, being a prophet, and knowing that God had sworn with an oath to him, that of the fruit of his loins, according to the FLESH, He would RAISED up Christ to SIT on His throne; (In other words, God promised King David that the Messiah would be born from his lineage or his seed.
And God would resurrect His ANOINTED servant from the dead and SEAT him on His throne.
For you see, the throne of King David was and still is Yahweh’s throne on the earth)
Acts 2:31. He seeing this before spoke of the resurrection of Christ, (Speaking of the ANOINTED Son of MAN, the MAN approved by God) that his soul was not left in hell, neither his flesh did see corruption.
Acts 2:32. This Jesus (Jesus of Nazareth, a MAN approved by God because of his love for RIGHTEOUSNESS and hatred toward iniquity, according to the prophecy in Psalm 45:7 and the FULFILLMENT in Hebrews 1:8,9) has God raised up, whereof we all are witnesses.
Acts 2:33. Therefore, being by the right hand of God EXALTED, and having RECEIVED of the Father the promise of the Holy Ghost, he has shed forth this, which you now see and hear.
Acts 2:34. For David is not ascended into the heavens: but he said himself, The LORD said unto my Lord, Sit you on My right hand,
Acts 2:35. UNTIL I make your foes your footstool. (In other words, Jesus will rule over the earth during the world to come for 1000 years, UNTIL, God has more than enough WITNESSES to JUDGE the world by the MAN whom He ORDAINED and raised from the dead, according to Acts 17:29-31.
Then the Son will step down from ruling and commit the Kingdom back into that hands of Almighty God the Father, according to 1 Corinthians 15:20-28)
Acts 2:36. Therefore, let all the house of Israel (And also ALL Christians) KNOW ASSUREDLY, that God has MADE that same Jesus, (The Son of MAN, Jesus of Nazareth, the MAN approved by God) whom you have crucified, both Lord and Christ.”
In other words, Jesus of Nazareth did NOT have the Holy Spirit dwelling in him BEFORE his baptism by John The Baptist.
But rather, God, who is Spirit VISITED the Son of MAN, Jesus, from His Virgin birth to the time for His chosen one to be TESTED by God’s enemy, Satan, the Devil.
But before God SENT His Son INTO the world, God ANOINTED the Son of MAN with POWER from on high.
And at the baptism of Jesus, the Holy Spirit descended upon the Son of God to REMAIN upon him.
The Greek word “apostellō” that is translated as “SENT” in the KJV, in John 3:17, John 10:36, and John 17:18, is translated as COMMISSIONED in the LITERAL translation of the Textus Receptus.
And, according to John 17:18, Jesus said as you have SENT me INTO the world, even so, or in the same manner, I also have SENT them INTO the world.
John 17:16-19.
“They are not of the world, even as I am not of the world. (In other words, WE who are born-again are NOT of the world in the SAME WAY that Jesus was NOT of the world.
So, to me, Jesus was the ADOPTED Son of God like WE are now the adopted sons of God.
And after the cross and resurrection, the Son of MAN, Jesus, BECAME the ETERNAL Son of God.
And at the coming of Jesus, we who are found to be good and faithful servants will ALSO be made to become the eternal sons and daughters of God)
John 17:17. Sanctify them through Your TRUTH: Your word is TRUTH.
John 17:18. As You have SENT me (Or COMMISSIONED me to go out) into the world, even so have I also SENT (Or given the Holy Spirit and POWER from on high to dispatch) them INTO the world.
John 17:19. And for their sakes I sanctify myself, that they also might be sanctified through the TRUTH.”
This concludes Book 6 Why God Created us!
In other words, why God created mankind AND the Son of MAN, Jesus.
Church TRADITION does not like when Biblical Unitarian Christians say that Jesus was CREATED by God.
But that is what the word of TRUTH clearly teaches us.
So, my next book will be called B-7 Who is the Only TRUTHFUL God?
The short answer is that Yahweh’s word, the Holy Scriptures, are the TRUTH, according to the CONTEXT in John 17:17.
But Jesus also said that he is the WAY, the TRUTH, and the LIFE, and no man comes to the Father EXCEPT through him. But how did Jesus come to be the way, the truth, and the life?
We have covered most of the answers to that question in the first eight books linked below.

And to me, the truth concerning who Jesus TRULY is, according to the Bible ITSELF, is the Biblical Unitarian view of Jesus.
Once Christians, Jews, Muslims, and even atheists understand the REASON that Yahweh CREATED the Son of MAN, Jesus, was to have DOMINION over the work of Yahweh’s hands.
And after you understand that the REASON that Yahweh did that is to STILL His ENEMIES, Satan and the fallen angels.
Then you can understand that God made His human Son to become “a” Lord, “a” King, and “a” God, under and subject to his God and Father in order to JUDGE Satan and the fallen angels.
