The Anointing and Redemption Pt 2

Isaiah 61:1-3 give us a beautiful prophecy of the coming Messiah.  Jesus quoted this passage in part and applied it to Himself at the beginning of His ministry thereby declaring that He is the awaited Messiah.  The power of the anointing was released through Jesus as He proclaimed His Gospel.  We are called to the same anointing so that we might continue all that He began to do and teach.  Not as individuals but as the body of Christ, His Church.
