I do not think it is true to the Word :

"The Spirit of the Lord is upon Me, because He has ANOINTED Me to preach the gospel to the poor..." (Luke 4:18).

So the Lord's ministry on the earth was under anointing. Moreover, even His name Christ means the anointed one!

In the Bible anointing often refers to the authority and power to fulfill the ministry.

CMW, excellent job! I like what you wrote on the anointing. I do not have much to add!
