The Anointed One (Part IV)

"'... I will ask the Father, and he will give you another Counselor to be with you forever--the Spirit of truth. The world cannot accept him, because it neither sees him nor knows him. But you know him, for he lives with you and will be in you. ... But the Counselor, the Holy Spirit, whom the Father will send in my name, will teach you all things and will remind you of everything I have said to you.'" (John 14:15-17, 26 NIV)

"But you [believers] have an anointing from the Holy One, and all of you know the truth. ... the anointing you received from him remains in you, and you do not need anyone to teach you. But as his anointing teaches you about all things and as that anointing is real, not counterfeit--just as it has taught you, remain in him." (1 John 2:20, 27)

"... how God anointed Jesus of Nazareth with the Holy Spirit and power ..." (Acts 10:38a)
"... from that day on the Spirit of the LORD came upon David in power ..." (1 Samuel 16:13b)

Just like Jesus Christ--or Jesus Messiah if you like--and King David, we as believers (Christians) are anointed and have power!!!
