Sodom and Gomorrah

[poptart]

God told Abraham that there were no righteous people in S&G and that it's sinful state was very grievous.
Hence, it would go up in smoke.

Angels of the Lord came to Lot (Abraham's nephew who lived in Sodom) and told him to get he, his wife, and children OUT pronto.
Lot told his son-in-laws of the warning from God.

Genesis 19:14
And Lot went out, and spake unto his sons in law, which married his
daughters, and said, Up, get you out of this place; for the LORD will destroy
this city. But he seemed as one that mocked unto his sons in law.

The generation who took the Word as a joke.

Lot's wife heard the news of salvation and came into the enviornment of salvation - but kept one foot (and eye) inside of destruction - and she perished as a pillar of salt - Genesis 19:26.




1 Corinthians 9:16
For though I preach the gospel, I have nothing to glory of: for necessity is laid upon me; yea, woe is unto me, if I preach not the gospel!

Genesis 19:4-5; But before they lay down, the men of the city, the men of Sodom, both young and old, all the people to the last man, surrounded the house; and they called to Lot, "Where are the men who came to you tonight? Bring them out to us, that we may know them"

by know them I'm assuming that meant they all wanted to have gay sex with them....apparently all of the males in Sodom were either gay or bisexual....

Genesis 19:8 Now behold, I have two daughters who have not had relations with man; please let me bring them out to you, and do to them whatever you like; only do nothing to these men, inasmuch as they have come under the shelter of my roof.”

So Lot offered his two VIRGIN daughters up instead and there wasn't a taker among all of the males in Sodom?

his daughters must have been coyote ugly......

but I guess that sounds reasonable....
er....maybe we should file this one in the "bible as allegory" category....

Was that Lot, or Dan Vogel?

Okay, cool, so there were NO righteous people in S&G....

Angels of the Lord came to Lot (Abraham's nephew who lived in Sodom) and told him to get he, his wife, and children OUT pronto.

Van, do you really not understand what Pop meant by that? Really?

is improper possessive pronoun spelling a smitable offense?

[Van]

Python, does my post read at all like I was doing anything other than having fun with the Dan Vogel/screwed up chronology bits?

For all your harping on Felix to lighten up, now who's taking this stuff too seriously?

I'll bet it was fun while it lasted, though.

Prolly eating a lot of bacon and stuff.

If God is an orthodox jew (and what else could he be), I will gladly face the eternal flames so long as I can have my bacon with eggs.
