So Jesus said to them again, "Peace to you! As the Father has sent Me, I also send you." And when He had said this, He breathed on them, and said to them, "Receive the Holy Spirit. "If you forgive the sins of any, they are forgiven them; if you retain the sins of any, they are retained." John 20:21-23
"There is any such thing as a biblical transferable anointing, as that denies both the Deity and personality of the Holy Spirit!" proclaimed the staunch Evangelical. But the biblical transferable anointing, has been around for a long time including in the Old Testament and it didn’t bother the Deity and personality of the Holy Spirit!"
You can close your eyes and see nothing but it doesn't change the fact that in many churches and ministries there are great men of God who believe in the biblical transferable anointing and practice giving it to others. And as a result many are seeing miracles and great results. It's also biblical because what ever God has done before He will do again especially with the anointing. Mind you very few talk about the biblical transferable anointing that Elijah had and God used it to kill the enemies of His people:
Then the LORD said to him: "Go, return on your way to the Wilderness of Damascus; and when you arrive, anoint Hazael as king over Syria. "Also you shall anoint Jehu the son of Nimshi as king over Israel. And Elisha the son of Shaphat of Abel Meholah you shall anoint as prophet in your place. "It shall be that whoever escapes the sword of Hazael, Jehu will kill; and whoever escapes the sword of Jehu, Elisha will kill. "Yet I have reserved seven thousand in Israel, all whose knees have not bowed to Baal, and every mouth that has not kissed him." 1 Kings 19:15-18
This unique enemy killing anointing of Elijah is some thing that many Evangelicals never talk about? Why? It's an anointing that is alive and well today! (Luke 18:1-8, Hebrews 10:26-31, Jude 1:5, Revelations 2:23)
Religious ones who deny the transferable anointing forget that Elisha received a transferable anointing and a double portion and the bible records he did twice as many miracles as Elijah. And not all of God's miracles, signs and wonders bless people. As Elisha showed us some miracles destroy people?
Now Elijah took his mantle, rolled it up, and struck the water; and it was divided this way and that, so that the two of them crossed over on dry ground. And so it was, when they had crossed over, that Elijah said to Elisha, "Ask! What may I do for you, before I am taken away from you?" Elisha said, "Please let a double portion of your spirit be upon me."
So he said, "You have asked a hard thing. Nevertheless, if you see me when I am taken from you, it shall be so for you; but if not, it shall not be so."
Then it happened, as they continued on and talked, that suddenly a chariot of fire appeared with horses of fire, and separated the two of them; and Elijah went up by a whirlwind into heaven.
And Elisha saw it, and he cried out, "My father, my father, the chariot of Israel and its horsemen!" So he saw him no more. And he took hold of his own clothes and tore them into two pieces.
He also took up the mantle of Elijah that had fallen from him, and went back and stood by the bank of the Jordan. Then he took the mantle of Elijah that had fallen from him, and struck the water, and said, "Where is the LORD God of Elijah?" And when he also had struck the water, it was divided this way and that; and Elisha crossed over. 2 Kings 2:8-14
Then he went up from there to Bethel; and as he was going up the road, some youths came from the city and mocked him, and said to him, "Go up, you baldhead! Go up, you baldhead!" So he turned around and looked at them, and pronounced a curse on them in the name of the LORD. And two female bears came out of the woods and mauled forty-two of the youths. 2 Kings 2:23-24
Foolish religious ones who call themselves Christians have not considered the fact that Elisha cursed the youths in the name of the Lord and two female bears came out of the woods and mauled forty-two of the youths. They forget that Jesus taught by example that His disciples can curse things and even people if they are true men of God? The bible records for our profit and instruction:
And Peter, remembering, said to Him, "Rabbi, look! The fig tree which You cursed has withered away."
So Jesus answered and said to them, "Have faith in God. "For assuredly, I say to you, whoever says to this mountain, 'Be removed and be cast into the sea,' and does not doubt in his heart, but believes that those things he says will be done, he will have whatever he says. "Therefore I say to you, whatever things you ask when you pray, believe that you receive them, and you will have them. Mark 11:21-24
Cursing things is one of those things that Jesus talked about when he said he says will be done' Be removed and be cast into the sea,' and does not doubt in his heart, but believes that those things he says will be done, he will have whatever he says. "Therefore I say to you, whatever things you ask when you pray, believe that you receive them, and you will have them.
Years ago there were two x-rated movies theaters in our area. So every time I drove by I cursed them in Jesus name. And within a few months they both died. One of them became a Pentecostal Church and the other an apartment building!
So who says you cannot curse things under the New Dispensation of Grace? Not God for whatever Jesus did so can we do:
"Most assuredly, I say to you, he who believes in Me, the works that I do he will do also; and greater works than these he will do, because I go to My Father. John 14:12
Who says we cannot receive the Holy Spirit or "If you forgive the sins of any, they are forgiven them; if you retain the sins of any, they are retained?" Not God’s word:
"Assuredly, I say to you, whatever you bind on earth will be bound in heaven, and whatever you loose on earth will be loosed in heaven. Matthew 18:19
