27B Jesus is comparing and contrasting divorce and remarriage from what Moses allowed to his teaching.

Scripture: 2 Peter 1:3
"What is the anointing of the Spirit of God? What does it mean to be anointed?" Is it necessary to be anointed by the Spirit of God in the Post Modern Culture such as today?
I want to trace back briefly into history of the practise of anointing and then come to its relevance for us today. The origin of ‘anointing’ was from a practice of shepherds.
