God's purpose has been and will aligned with men. Women are absolutely necessary, however, men are used for specific purposes on earth. Eve ate of the forbidden Tree, yet nothing happened...It was only when Adam ate of the Tree that "sin entered the world". Achan sinned by robbing God of the first cities spoils (1 of the 10 cities, referring to the tithe) and so his entire family died.
I don't understand why the daughter's did not get punished for their sin? What am I missing? This reflects the actions of the world today. In some case's no punishment!
WHY?WHY? How can daughter's conceive by their father?? It's not explained after Lot woke up. He didn't know his daughter's gave birth to his own children? Someone help me with this. Thank You. God Bless!
Verse 16~Jehovah God showed great patience and loving kindness towards Lot when he kept lingering. It is better to obey God immediately and not procrastinate.
It is very clear that the cities were wicked and a demonstration of that wickedness was the sexual perversions of the men of the city of Sodom. Lot vexed his soul and lost the majority of his family.
Yes thats correct but lot was nothing compared to the people of SODOM which is why the Lord spared them. all the saints in the bible still had wicked flesh like us they were not sinlessly perfect. ABRAHAM was an idolator he was from bablyon. ONLY GOD can make you righteous works salvation is self righteous. the only man that IS self righteous is THE LORD JESUS
Verse 3: Lot showed hospitality to the angels. Lot knew how corrupt the city was and he made sure he took the angles into his house to provide for them and to protect them.
Down through the ages, God has been consistent in warning about His impending wrath. He never leaves us in doubt of his plan and oftentimes we are too blind or obstinate to see. This chapter exemplifies God's second chance opportunity for humanity and the inclination of humans to keep regressing into sin like Lot's wife did by looking back. May His Grace help us walk along the narrow way to heaven
Let's not forget that Abraham and GOD had a covenant and that covenant was between GOD and Abraham not Lot. When GOD called Abraham out of the land of which his family, Lot was not supposed to come. No where in previous scripture do we notice a covenant or fellowship that occurred between Lot and GOD so it is safe to say that the mercy extended on Lot was on the strength of Abraham Genesis 19:29
God grant me the strength to follow your word I am still a lustful person I still sin and I know it is wrong jesus please grant me the grace to do what is right Heavenly Father come into my life and help me follow you lord I am a lost sheep out of the 100 please find me and help me have the faith to be part of your 100 sheep hold me close to your bosom.Lord I love you grant me faith to follow you
Deborah K. Genesis 19:30,31,32,33; His daughters "lie with our father that we might preserve his seed." They gave him wine, had sex with him, hoping to become pregnant.
"Lay with" typically means have sex with; if that is the context of the verse.
Lot's wife looking back, would simply suggest that she went back to her sinful life being that Sodom and Gomorrah was a sinful city hence it could be that her heart was of lust of the world; the vanity of what she is leaving behind and that her heart wasn't towards God. The word of God declares in psalms 24:3-4 in order for us to enter in God's presence we gave to be set apart, we can't b lustful
Even when God sent his angels to bring Lot out of danger Lot was reluctant to go. The Angels had to put their hands on him and his family and quide them out. I hope for this mercy in my own life, for I'm often slow to do what I should do.
Lot offered his two daughters who was unknown to man virgins to the men in town, only to leave the angels alone. But it also say that lot had sons in laws. How many daughters did lot have?
Clearly the water is physical birth. That which is flesh is flesh. Flesh is physical and it is associated with water. We say, her water broke. Spirit is obviously the new birth. This is a good verse for the oneness to explain. Genesis 19:24 Then the LORD rained upon Sodom and upon Gomorrah brimstone and fire from the LORD out of heaven Strange verse if there is no Godhead. What aboutGenesis 1:26 And God said, Let us make man in our image, after our likeness: The angles sure didn 't help Him considering Isaiah 44:24 I am the LORD that maketh all things that stretcheth forth the heavens alone that spreadeth abroad the earth by myself. What aboutGe 3:22 And the LORD God said, Behold, the man is become as one of us. Who is us? Hosea 12:4 Yea, he had power over the angel, and prevailed: he wept, and made supplication unto him: he found him in Bethel, and there he spake with us Who is the US in this verse? The Bible tells you. Hosea 12:5 Even the LORD God of hosts the LORD is his memorial.
Jacques, it is interesting that Lot 's wife was so close to life but looked back and died. Jesus Christ through Scripture stress that Christians must endure until the end. I believe the angel didn 't mention Lot 's daughter-in-laws is because he had no sons. All the trials and test we face in life we must endure until the end for they that endure until the end the same shall be saved Matt.24:13. God bless us all and in the understanding of His Word. Glory be to God in the highest. Amen.
Anonymous, I believe that by recording this Biblical account of Lot 's life the Scripture is confirming that God is no respector of person. All men failures and successes regardless of how great they are or how favored they are in God 's sight. I believe one reason the angel didn 't mention any daughter-in-laws of Lot is because he probably had no sons. I also, believe that like the proverb says necessity is the mother of invention there were no men or no righteous men around to continue the seed or blood line of righteous Lot therefore his daughters devised their plot to carry on his seed. They didn 't have the faith or patience to wait for God to provide. Incest was not frown on as much then as it is today. After all is said and done God allowed the plot to succeed. God bless us al and in the understanding of His Word glory be to God in the highest. Amen.
It scares me to know Lot 's Wife actually made it in to Zoar AND THEN looked back...Then they wound up going into the mountain anyways as the Angel already commanded . Did anybody realize that the Angels asked if he had "son-in-laws " but not "daughter-in-laws "?...I wonder what his sons had gotten into in a city like that?
I notice before Gods wrath Abraham sacrificed a calf as a sort of priest before God. And made duplication for lots sake. Lot as a saved by grace man celebrates a type of passover with unlevend bread perhaps the first passover?
God's purpose has been and will aligned with men. Women are absolutely necessary, however, men are used for specific purposes on earth. Eve ate of the forbidden Tree, yet nothing happened...It was only when Adam ate of the Tree that "sin entered the world". Achan sinned by robbing God of the first cities spoils (1 of the 10 cities, referring to the tithe) and so his entire family died.
