Saved from Fire and Brimstone Lot

Saved from Fire and Brimstone Lot

By Pastor and Mrs Chifamba

THERE IS NOTHING WRONG WITH DOING BUSINESS BUT PROSPERITY AND WEALTH SHOULD NOT MAKE US LIFT OUR LITTLE FINGERS AGAINST THE ALMIGHTY GOD. SODOM THRIVED IN BUSINESS AND FORGOT GOD. THEY BECAME CORRUPT AND SPIRITUALLY UNFRUITFUL

Luke‬ ‭17‬:‭28‬-‭30‬ ‭NKJV‬‬

“Likewise as it was also in the days of Lot: They ate, they drank, they bought, they sold, they planted, they built; but on the day that Lot went out of Sodom it rained fire and brimstone from heaven and destroyed them all. Even so will it be in the day when the Son of Man is revealed.”

Mark 4:18-19

Some, fearing they will suffer loss of earthly treasure, neglect prayer and the assembling of themselves together for the worship of God, that they may have more time to devote to their farms or their business. They show by their works which world they place the highest estimate upon… They make their temporal, worldly interests first, and rob God of the time which they should devote to His service. Such persons God marks, and they will receive a curse, rather than a blessing.— {Christian Service p. 214.1}

Genesis 13:12-13

Abram dwelled in the land of Canaan, and Lot dwelled in the cities of the plain, and pitched his tent toward Sodom. 13But the men of Sodom were wicked and sinners before the LORD exceedingly.

Jude‬ ‭1‬:‭7‬ ‭NIV‬

“In a similar way, Sodom and Gomorrah and the surrounding towns gave themselves up to sexual immorality and perversion. They serve as an example of those who suffer the punishment of eternal fire.”

Genesis‬ ‭19‬:‭4‬-‭7‬ ‭NIV‬‬

“Before they had gone to bed, all the men from every part of the city of Sodom—both young and old—surrounded the house. They called to Lot, “Where are the men who came to you tonight? Bring them out to us so that we can have sex with them.” Lot went outside to meet them and shut the door behind him and said, “No, my friends. Don’t do this wicked thing.”

‭‭‬

THE SINS OF SODOM WENT BEYOND SEXUAL IMMORALITY AND PERVERSION ACCORDING TO ISAIAH AND EZEKIEL. IT IS ONE THING TO SIN AND ANOTHER THING TO ARROGANTLY PARADE ONE’S SIN‼️

Isaiah‬ ‭3‬:‭9‬-‭11‬ ‭NIV‬

“The look on their faces testifies against them; they parade their sin like Sodom; they do not hide it. Woe to them! They have brought disaster upon themselves. Tell the righteous it will be well with them, for they will enjoy the fruit of their deeds….

Ezekiel 16:49-50

Behold, this was the iniquity of thy sister Sodom, pride, fulness of bread, and abundance of idleness was in her and in her daughters, neither did she strengthen the hand of the poor and needy. 50And they were haughty, and committed abomination before me: therefore I took them away as I saw good.

2 Peter‬ ‭2‬:‭6‬-‭9‬ ‭NIV‬‬

‭‭ “if he condemned the cities of Sodom and Gomorrah by burning them to ashes, and made them an example of what is going to happen to the ungodly; and if he rescued Lot, a righteous man, who was distressed by the depraved conduct of the lawless (for that righteous man, living among them day after day, was tormented in his righteous soul by the lawless deeds he saw and heard)— if this is so, then the Lord knows how to rescue the godly from trials and to hold the unrighteous for punishment on the day of judgment.”

Genesis 19:17

And it came to pass, when they had brought them forth abroad, that he said, Escape for thy life; look not behind thee, neither stay thou in all the plain; escape to the mountain, lest thou be consumed.

THE GOD WHO RESCUED LOT FROM THE FIRE 🔥 AND BRIMSTONE OF SODOM WANTS TO RESCUE YOU FROM HELL FIRE THAT WAS NEVER MEANT FOR YOU BUT FOR THE DEVIL.

Ezekiel 33:11

Say unto them, As I live, saith the Lord GOD, I have no pleasure in the death of the wicked; but that the wicked turn from his way and live: turn ye, turn ye from your evil ways; for why will ye die, O house of Israel?

Matthew 25:41-42

Revelation 20:15

And whosoever was not found written in the book of life was cast into the lake of fire.
