If Jesus were to knock on your door...
How would you know that it is really Jesus?
.
The spirit of God bears witness. Just Like the Angels who walked into Sodom and Gomorrah. Lot saw them as Angels and the wicked towns people saw them as men. But when The Angels that went to Sodom and Gomorrah left Abraham's tent, Abraham saw them as three Lords.
Genesis 18
2 So he lifted his eyes and looked, and behold,
three men were standing by him; and when he saw them, he ran from the tent door to meet them, and bowed himself to the ground,
3 and said, "My Lord, if I have now found favor in Your sight, do not pass on by Your servant.
4 Please let a little water be brought, and wash your feet, and rest yourselves under the tree.
5 And I will bring a morsel of bread, that you may refresh your hearts. After that you may pass by, inasmuch as you have come to your servant."
They said, "Do as you have said."
22 Then the men turned away from there and went toward Sodom, but Abraham still stood before the Lord.
Genesis 19
1 Now the two angels came to Sodom in the evening, and Lot was sitting in the gate of Sodom. When Lot saw them, he rose to meet them, and he bowed himself with his face toward the ground.
2
And he said, "Here now, my lords, please turn in to your servant's house and spend the night, and wash your feet; then you may rise early and go on your way." And they said, "No, but we will spend the night in the open square."
4 Now before they lay down, the men of the city, the men of Sodom, both old and young, all the people from every quarter, surrounded the house.
5 And they called to Lot and said to him, "
Where are the men who came to you tonight? Bring them out to us that we may know them carnally."
