Welcome to our Sermon review as we continue on “The mystery of the 3 visitors of Abraham”. We started this series a couple of weeks back and few subtopics have been treated. If you came across this post without reading previous reviews, we encourage you to check them out for proper understanding of this topic. Below are links to previous reviews:

Today, we focused on the 3 people visited by the angels, which also type the three sect of churches we have in this last dispensation of the gentile age. Do well to have an open mind as the Holy Spirit unveils this hidden mystery to you.
TEXT: Genesis 19:1, Acts 9: 15, Matthew 13:11, John 16: 13, Genesis 18:1, Daniel 12:9, Revelation 22:10, Luke 24:49, Matthew 24:37, John 12:44, Malachi 4:5, Galatians 1:6
The mystery of the Kingdom can only be revealed and understood by few elected set of people (Matthew 13:10-12). It has pleased the Lord to reveal these mysteries to them. These mysteries however, must be revealed through a messenger. The mystery of God cannot be studied. It cannot be understood by the intellectual capacities of man, it is given by God who is His word, and until it is given to you from above, your revelations of His words remain misaligned.
God is also pleased to code his words in the Bible into mysteries. He leaves us with some hints until the appropriate time. God often speaks in parables. He does it intentionally. This is because He takes delight in giving interpretation of His word to His predestinated seeds. He told His disciples that it is given unto them to know the mysteries of the Kingdom. God hides the truth from the prudent and reveals it to babes.
There are certain mysteries that are not meant to be revealed until the end of the world. Of course, we are already in the end of the world. Therefore, the mystery of the word of God is being revealed in this last day. Daniel saw some mysteries but could not understand them. (Daniel 12:9),. The revelation of that mystery was not given to him. It was sealed up till the end of time. But when John saw the mystery in the book of Revelation God told him not to seal it up (Revelations 22:10). It was for the end of time. And the end is right here. Hallelujah!
The three visitors of Abraham came as men in theophany bodies. One of them was God Himself, the self-existent God. Abraham recognised Him despite the form in which He appeared. This appearance of God may be a mystery to you. But God gave the revelation of who He is to Abraham.
Who are the three men? What were their messages and who were they sent to?
1. Abraham:
After Abraham had entertained the two angels including God, the two men departed and went to Sodom. But God stayed behind, to commune with Abraham and to inform him of the destruction he was planning against Sodom. The message of God to Abraham was to reveal the mystery of His plans and also to bless him.
2. Lot:
The other two men went to Sodom, and were entertained by Lot. The message of the two angels sent by these two men was to tell Lot about the uncoming destruction of Sodom. They also came to tell him to run out of Sodom.
3. Sodom:
The two angels that went to Sodom went to blindfold them. They blinded them against the warning of God.
While the three visitors have their ministries, they are however, assigned to different people. The two other angels who appeared in Sodom have their ministries to Lot and Sodom respectively, though they worked together to blindfold Sodom. Sodom is a type of the world. And the Bible promised that the scenario that happened in Sodom will repeat itself in this last day.
This means that we will have three different church sects:
1. The group of Abraham which represent the elect, ‘’the spiritual seeds of Abraham’’. They will have a messenger who will come with a message; the unadulterated word of God. They are the sect that have the revelation of what God is doing. Yes! You have him today. He is the Prophet William Marrion Branham. God worked through him with the Spirit of Elijah (Malachi 4:5-6) to restore the heart of the children to their apostolic fathers before the dreadful day of the lord. This sect is not and will not be a denomination. They build upon the revelation of the word of God as the Spirit of Truth reveals to them.
2. The second group is the Orthodox Church which is the Anglicans, Methodists, Baptists and Catholics. These have their messenger as well.
3. The Pentecostals: This group was birthed by the Orthodox; they denominated on Pentecost and became Pentecostalism, which is a deviation from the Pentecost experience at the upper room. Because the evidence of the Holy Spirit is not speaking in tongues as one of their dogmas say.
The evidence of the Holy Spirit is the ability to believe the true revelation of the word of God and live the life of it.
These two angels worked together because in the last times, the last two churches will merge together, and their blinding is a spiritual one. Only the Bride Church will be different and have their stand with the pure word of God.
Please, stay unmovable. Don’t be carried away by the Creeds and doctrines of denominations. Keep your predestination and remain in the ark.
God bless you, brethren.
