Spiritual Ranking
A member is not considered ripe for the rite of anointment in Celestial Church of Christ until such a person has steadily worshipped in the church for three years, two years after baptism. Exod. 30:30-33. By the time a member is being presented for anointment, there should be adequate evidence that such a person is a committed Christian worshipping in Celestial Church of Christ. Apostle Paul was for several years referred to as "Brother" until he and Barnabas were formally commissioned to proceed on a missionary journey - Acts 9:17;13:15 Rev. A. A. Bada (Pastor, Celestial Church of Christ worldwide April 1987)
