The title for this blog is in acknowledgement of my new YouTube channel that launched yesterday actually.
'No more topical ointment!' is dedicated to those that may have a pseudo-relationship with God, or lack thereof and perhaps don't know it or know it but have no clue about how to go about making it better.
The terminology, "topical ointment" derives from a revelation I was given about Christians who keep God and the things of God external. People that do such, also tend to (whether they realize it or not) live their life/spiritual career working for their salvation... EEK! Big mistake. God takes us as we are and unconditionally loves us to the place of where He wants us to be. Sure enough, it is a work that goes forth in us; changing us from old to new, however, it is a work that only He can do. If there was ANYTHING you could do to save yourself, then you would have no need of a Savior making Christ dead in vain.
Topical ointment is a matter or rather issue of the heart. Topical ointment wants the perks and blessings of God without the commitment, submission or relationship with God. Topical ointment outwardly looks like a great person who is loving and living a Christlike lifestyle but inwardly is full of all manner of hypocrisy and ill regard to what God Loves. Topical ointment goes to church every time the doors are open and does everything the church says to do, but has absolutely no relationship with God upon leaving church and therefore experiences no change. Topical ointment appears to have a thriving relationship with God because their works and disciplines look great, but the Love of God is absent from their heart... Are you catching my drift?
Topical ointment is dangerous and detrimental. It could also be grouped with Pharisaic and Saducee-ism. "No more topical ointment!" is to help us stir away from all things topical when relating to God and to engage in a further, deeper authentic relationship with Jesus!
If something within you was pricked, compelled or even excited while reading this post, I invite you to tune in and subscribe to my channel. There will be so much good stuff going on over there. I'll be sharing and discussing the Word of God, expounding on scriptures and also taking questions and comments via email that will be answered in the broadcasts.
Hope to see you there!
