    Is it all right for a pastor to annoint himself with oil when he is sick?

    Hmmm.... well I sliced open my finger on a drain cover after cleaning out the shower drain and knowing how much gunk and germs I had just handled, I cleansed it VERY well and prayed over myself. How could that be much different from a pastor or his family annointing him with oil and asking for divine healing?

    I certainly am praying for a miracle for you! We've SEEN God's Glory and we've seen healings. Why not you?

    Use what you want medicinally.

    But what does the Bible say about anointing (non medicinal)?
    Individual problem - pray individually, quote scripture individually

    BUT . .

    Prayer/anointing of that individual is "plural" or corporate by the elders.
