Only One Oil

Exodus 30:25 And you shall make of these a sacred anointing oil blended as by the perfumer; it shall be a holy anointing oil. 26 With it you shall anoint the tent of meeting, the altar of incense, 28 and the altar of burnt offering with all its utensils and the basin and its stand. 29 You shall consecrate them, that they may be most holy. Whatever touches them will become holy. 30 You shall anoint Aaron and his sons, and consecrate them, that they may serve me as priests. 31 And you shall say to the people of Israel, ‘This shall be my holy anointing oil throughout your generations. 

Once everything and everyone was ready for worship in the tabernacle, it was to be anointed with a special oil.  This was not any old oil: It was God-brand oil. Yet, at the same time, it was not a magical oil that turned something "holy."  It was not to be used on or by anything or anyone else, and it was not to be "pirated" and sold under another name. What made it and everything it touched "holy" was that God had instructed it and was obeyed in the details.  When God calls upon us to "be Holy," He tells us how, and it only happens through obedience to Him and help from Him.  What instructions have we ignored? What exceptions have we made? Are we trying to "be holy" some other way?
