What about prophetic soap and anointing oil?

Below is a copy of an email I received this last week. The question was, is there a biblical basis for such things as prophetic soap and anointing oil?
________________________________________
I am seeking guidance on a situation involving the use of prophetic soap and anointing oil, as instructed by a prophet. The prophet created a soap, referred to as prophetic soap, and mailed it to my family with instructions to use it every three days while making prophetic declarations while bathing with it… A church in the USA instructed the congregation to carry a bottle of anointing oil for a monthly anointing church service. We were directed to pray over ourselves and even drink a shot of the oil. Sometimes, we are told to anoint our points of contact with objects like business cards, resumes, and other items.

These practices concern me, as I am uncertain about the biblical basis for using physical objects like soap and anointing oil as means of receiving blessings or healing. Are there any biblical examples of objects being used in this manner, and how can one discern whether such practices are biblically sound or potentially misleading?

Answer from Mark Virkler
Helen, here are several Scriptures that shed light on the questions you raised...
1. It is biblical for the power of God to be infused into an object - God was performing extraordinary miracles by the hands of Paul, so that handkerchiefs or aprons were even carried from his body to the sick, and the diseases left them and the evil spirits went out (Acts 19:11-12).
Many healing evangelists have sent out pieces of cloth for people to place on themselves for healing. Oral Roberts would have people lay their hands on the radio as he was praying for healing. This was a point of contact to release their faith for healing, I would see both of these actions as congruent with biblical protocols.
2. I have never heard of prophetic soap - It could be a point of contact to release faith, but I don’t believe we see this in Scripture anywhere and I am not inclined to participate in using it.
3. Anointing with oil is found in Scripture - They were casting out many demons and were anointing with oil many sick people and healing them (Mk. 6:13).

In the verses in James (below), you see that if you are sick, you call for the elders of the church, and several things are to transpire: They pray and anoint with oil in the name of the Lord, and if sins have been committed, you confess sins to one another.

Is anyone among you sick? Then he must call for the elders of the church and they are to pray over him, anointing him with oil in the name of the Lord; and the prayer offered in faith will restore the one who is sick, and the Lord will raise him up, and if he has committed sins, they will be forgiven him. Therefore, confess your sins to one another, and pray for one another so that you may be healed. The effective prayer of a righteous man can accomplish much (Jas. 5:14-16).

4. Drinking healing oil - I am not aware of that being done in Scripture. You would want to know what was in the oil to ensure nothing is damaging to one's health. I have never done this, and am not inclined to do it.
5. Prophetic actions, like anointing points of contact with objects like business cards, resumes, and other items - One prophet told a king in Israel to strike the ground with a staff as a prophetic gesture of striking and defeating the enemy. The king only struck the ground three times, and the prophet was upset and told him he should have struck the ground 4-5 times, and because he didn’t he would not fully defeat the enemy (2 Kgs. 18;18,19). So yes, prophetic actions, when performed in faith, can be instrumental in releasing God's power.
6. Cautions, honor the leading of the Spirit - But you have an anointing from the Holy One, and all of you know the truth (1 Jn. 2:20).
7. Cautions, never come under a person's domination or control - Nor yet as lording it over those allotted to your charge, but proving to be examples to the flock (1 Pet. 5:3).

Final thoughts: People are free to do different things than what I do, as long as those things are not forbidden in Scripture. I do not think any of the actions you listed are forbidden in Scripture. If I was in a great church that was ministering life to me, and the above actions were my only points of concern, I could easily set them aside as something they liked and I didn’t and that was fine. I would just enjoy the other aspects of the ministry I was receiving from them. We don’t need to agree on everything.

International Public Notice: You Ask How Did She Know?
By Anna Von Reitz


I ran across this film clip of Ayn Rand, the Author of Atlas Shrugged, and the young man asking --- how did she know this in 1959? The same way we know it in 2024. She looked. She saw.

Please note the young Mike Wallace, too, trolling the media line and the socialist mindset.

Please also be aware that this interview is taking place eighteen (18) years after the money had been put in place as of 1941, to pay for all the expenses of the governments --- all social programs, all infrastructure --- in every country worldwide, so there was no need or reason to tax anyone, except that in the meantime, the Vermin had started another World War.

So the Generals stole the money intended to be an endowment covering all government expenses and doing away with any need for taxation. They commandeered it under the Marshall Plan and various other initiatives and slush funds. They used it to rebuild all the damage that they had caused and to buy entire governments and economic sectors in countries all over the world.

They are still trying to steal and control and contrive to keep hold of money meant to free you all from taxation forever.

They have tried to deny its existence.

Then they have tried to pretend that they don't know whose money it is.

Then they have tried to pretend that it came from criminal sources.

Then they have tried to pretend that it came from a man who is a slave in their three-tiered slave system.

And none of this is true. They know and we know exactly where that money came from and what it is supposed to do.

It is supposed to forever end taxation.

It is supposed to provide everything everyone needs in terms of government services and infrastructure without taxing people.

But taxation is a power to destroy that can be used to coerce and bully and terrify and the slimebags don't want to give it up.

They don't want to honor the wishes of the people who actually produced the wealth in the first place.

No, they want to use it to buy people off and create more conflicts and more oppression and more ways to kill people, because that is how twisted, small-minded, crooked, and grasping these men really are.

Here is Ayn Rand telling you the truth about taxation -- but she told people a lot more than this.

She explained how the Generals used this money to buy controlling interests in all the Fortune 500 Companies, how they gobbled up entire market sectors, how they turned the stock market into a rigged casino, how they terrorized the captains of industry, how they stole and coerced and still do.

Atlas Shrugged is really the simple truth presented as a fictional story. It was the only way that Ayn Rand could get the truth to you. This is what she personally witnessed in the 1930's, 40's and 50's.

Like the Wizard of Oz and The Lord of the Rings, Atlas Shrugged is a form of disclosure that exposes one whole segment of the destruction of our world at the hands of crooked generals and government bureaucrats --- the take over of our productive private sector corporations and inevitably, the death of our industrial base.

Don't wonder how she knew. Wonder why you didn't.

The recent lesson in economics given to the members of the World Economic Forum by the President of Argentina is a lesson that Argentina, Russia, China, and every other Socialist -Communist- Fascist country has learned.

These failed socialist political theories have led to poverty and social misery every time and everywhere they have been adopted. No exceptions.

If we let the criminals get away with it, they will force these failed ideas onto us and we will be a Third World country; indeed, to the extent that the colluding generals have succeeded, we already are.

Look at American Standardized Test Scores since Jimmy Carter's Federal Department of Education came into existence in 1976.

Look at our standard of living plummeting.

Look at the value of the Federal Reserve Notes being eaten up like bon-bons by engineered inflation.

Look at America, once loved and respected, being trashed and hated.

Look at what these political parties and lobbyists have done to this country and ask yourselves, why aren't these special interest groups outlawed?

Why are corporations able to give almost unlimited amounts of money to political candidates so as to literally buy the government?

Until the rest of the world recognizes that this thing occupying the Federal Capitol isn't our American Government, that it is the usurping Roman Catholic Municipal "United States, Inc." and the usurping British Territorial "United States of America, Inc." that they are dealing with, the entire world will suffer.

Likewise, until the world recognizes the difference between the United Nations organization and the UN CORPORATION, there will be no peace, no honesty, no safety for anyone.

These evil corporate conglomerates will continue to promote war, war, and more war for profit and the corrupt generals will continue to evade and abuse civilian authority, until the banks are cut off at the knees for funding them and hiding their dirt.

And this is what Ayn Rand knew, too.

What we are telling you is nothing new; we are simply putting it together in a different way, and shoving it in your faces until you must choke on it.

In case you missed it, be sure to catch this similarly insightful summation of what happens when for-profit corporations masquerade as governments.

They kill people and terrorize them for profit.
Literally.

To them, it's just another kind of war.
To them, it's just another "theater".
To them, it's all for fun -- until they are caught.

Pay special attention to all the captured film footage of the crazy hospital, nurse, and death/ demon display that was actually part of the London Olympics years prior to the so-called pandemic.

These are the enemies of mankind, right here on public display, in our faces, dramatizing how they intended to kill us and our children and our elders. And did so, too, using their "Uniformed Officers" -- the licensed Health Professionals, who took the kickbacks and injected everyone with poisons and parasites and experimental gunk.

Don't forget and don't forgive the corporations and the men and women who did this.

They killed indiscriminately. They killed young and old, rich and poor, black and white. They killed for the sake of profit and cashed out the "Life Force Value Annuities" they took out on our lives, in a bizarre reprise of the Bottomry Bonds Scandal.

So it is time to "kill" them. Yank their charters and contracts. Sever their licenses. Remove the corporate veil. Void their registrations, copyrights, and patents. Boycott them. And don't believe a word of their narratives. Don't support them in any way. Treat them as you would a plague of rats.
Quit working for them. Join organizations that will put an end to them once and for all.

Explain to everyone why this is the right, proper, and lawful response.

https://www.oann.com/newsroom/methodist-church-of-great-britain-labels-wife-and-husband-terms-as-offensive/ In order to avoid making assumptions that are not “the reality for many people,” the Methodist Church of Great Britain has urged its pastors, deacons, and elders to cease using “derogatory” terms like “husband” and “wife.”

The Methodist Church revised its “Inclusive Language Guide” in order to stop individuals from using “hurtful language” against groups that it considers have been “marginalized and/or demonized by common culture.” Every six months, the church intends to update the Inclusive Language Guide in order to remove any language that could offend groups that it considers to be marginalized.

The church wants its leaders to acknowledge that “relationships come in many varied expressions,” and they now require church members and leaders to refer to couples as “partners” and “parents.”

The guidelines said that “using a person’s chosen pronouns is helpful as it honors their identity,” which directly addressed the topic of gender. Additionally, the church issued a warning to its adherents not to use terms like “brothers and sisters,” which, despite their good intentions, exclude “non-binary friends.”

Additionally, pronoun use is promoted among congregation members in casual conversation. The church advises its members to seek advice from leftist organizations like GLAAD and Stonewall if they want any further direction on pronoun usage or the most recent authorized wording meant to avoid offending vulnerable LGBTQ+ communities, according to the Christian Institute.

The Methodist community’s governing body in Great Britain recently released extreme language guidelines that build upon much more radical moves from 2021, when the group overwhelmingly agreed to redefine marriage and perform same-sex marriages.

The Methodist Church of Great Britain has called on its ministers, deacons, and elders to stop using offensive terminology such as “husband” and “wife” to avoid making assumptions that are not “the reality for many people.”The church plans to update the Inclusive Language Guide every six months to avoid using language that could offend groups it perceives as marginalized. https://1ft.io/proxy?q=https%3A%2F%2Fwww.breitbart.com%2Ffaith%2F2023%2F12%2F28%2Fthe-methodist-church-of-great-britain-labels-terms-husband-and-wife-offensive%2F
