HOLY UNCTION.

Holy Unction:

​Anointing of the sick

Anointing of the sick with out and prayer is biblical, but not the way Orthodoxy or Catholicism practice it. If they practiced it "right" it would still be wrong as their bogus priests neither have authority nor Faith. It is turned into a ritual that helps ensure  eternal salvation, and as such it is a clear shove toward the abyss.


​In Greek-speaking Churches this is performed annually for the whole congregation during Holy Week on the eve of Holy Wednesday. Everyone is encouraged to come forward for anointing with the special oil whether they are physically ill or not. This is because it is generally held that all are in need of spiritual healing even if they are physically well.
Anointing of the sick can also be performed on individuals. People sometimes keep the blessed oil of the sick in their homes.
The Church anoints the sick with oil, following the teaching of St James in his Epistle (5:14-15), "Is anyone among you sick? He should summon the presbyters of the Church, and they should pray over him and anoint (him) with oil in the name of the Lord, and the prayer of faith will save the sick person, and the Lord will raise him up. If he has committed any sins he will be forgiven."
