I've known and know quite a number of anointed folks.

It's quite conceivable that lots of Roman brothers and sisters hereon do as well.

How do you know that they are anointed?

Er, if I may…

If we use the meaning of “anointed” as one chosen of God (in contrast to being sprinkled with oil/perfume by other men) - in other words, specially blessed by Him, I’d like to offer my mother as an example of an anointed one.

We all have the grace of faith, but she was given the gift of faith. When she prayed, she simply laid her burdens at the Cross, believed Him and never picked them up again. And miracles happened all the time in her life.

Examples of anointed ones in Scripture: Enoch, Noah, Abraham, Moses, David, Solomon, John, Paul
