Thank you, I found this very interesting. Only I miss the mentioning of God saying not to use the holy anointing oil to human skin. Exodus 30:32-33. We are not allowed to make something similar to the anointing oil. So take that in heed while making your own oils. I think this is kind of misleading because you only provide the info so people are getting interesting in making the oil and you left the rest of the bible verse out. While God is very clear that He does not wants us to make the oil for other purposes than anoiting the tempel and Aaron and his sons only. For who does so must be eliminated from among the people. Please read for yourself what God says.
Thank you so much for your thoughtful comment and for bringing up Exodus 30:32-33. I appreciate the opportunity to engage in a deeper discussion on this. I understand that the passage you mention speaks about the holy anointing oil and how it was reserved for sacred purposes during that time. However, I believe that since Jesus came to set us free and fulfill the law, some of the practices, like animal sacrifices for the cleansing of sins, have changed. Just as Jesus became the ultimate sacrifice, doing away with the need for animal sacrifices, I believe there is a shift in how we can view the use of oils today. The anointing oil described in Exodus had a specific purpose at that time, but today, we are free in Christ to use oils for our well-being, spiritual practices, and personal care without violating the sacredness intended for the temple in the Old Testament. Many oils mentioned in the Bible were used in everyday life for health and spiritual purposes, and I see their benefits as part of God’s creation for us to enjoy. I want to clarify that my intention with this video is to explore how essential oils have been used throughout history for various purposes, including spiritual and physical wellness. I believe we can honor God’s creation while respecting biblical teachings. I appreciate your perspective, and I’m thankful for the opportunity to discuss this further.
