entertained angels (v.2) \u2014 Abraham (Genesis 18:1-3<\/span><\/a>); Lot (Genesis 19:1-2<\/span><\/a>)<\/h3>\n

It is important to notice that Israel must endure to the end of their Great Tribulation while keeping the faith of Christ and the commandments, which is referred to as the “everlasting gospel,” the source of which is angels (Revelation 14:6, 12).<\/span><\/h3>\n

And it is of the utmost importance for remnant Israel to pay attention to angels, hence this instruction to entertain strangers because those strangers might actually be angels; and angels have the everlasting gospel to preach to remnant Israel.<\/span><\/h3>\n

These instructions are very much opposite the apostle Paul’s clear teaching that we in our dispensation are not under the commandments (Romans 6:14<\/span><\/a>; Colossians 2:16<\/span><\/a>; Galatians 5:1<\/span><\/a>) and that we are not to listen to angels (Galatians 1:8<\/span><\/a>). \u2014 McLean, pages 186-187<\/span><\/h3>\n
