Yep. Well said.
Didn’t realize Gomorrah was known to have a claimed site where one could go see it. Thought it was buried in the Dead Sea or otherwise lost or undiscovered.

We all have sinned and the Almighty desires that we confess our sins and receive forgiveness instead of promoting them and seeking to legalize and force the church and society to accept perverted sexual sins.

The world and especially our nation has turned away from God, we have basically false prophets declaring new commandments in direct conflict with Biblical standards...like homosexuality. I have noticed a feeling of impending doom that I have never before witnessed. It is very widespread...I think there is a good chance we are in for a “storm” to sweep our nation. Indeed, I wonder sometimes if it already hasn’t begun.

The politics of Sodom and Gomorrah, is that it would have been populated almost entirely by libertarians and liberals.

The Bible has always been very clear about condemning sin and the abomination that is homosexuality.

It always is amazing to me how wise the Bible is-—and how it even states that Evil will be called “Good”. That concept seemed inconceivable to me-—but then they allowed abortion, and yelled it was a “Right”!!!! Now, they yell and tell kids, and glorify the following in movies and TV, “Sodomy is a Right!!!”

It is really sickening how parents allow their children to absorb those ideas in the media and the schools-—for now we have over 70;% of young adults who think such dehumanizing, evil behavior is a “Right” when Rights in the US Constitution only come from God.

They are ignorant of the Bible and the Constitution after being brainwashed in government atheist/occult schools and by the media. We need to take the minds of our children away from the Luciferians.

Throughout the Holy WORD of G-d, marriage is a metaphor
for the relationship of YHvH and his "called" people.
In the Tanach, YHvH is the Bridegroom and Israel is His Wife.
Later "called" gentiles are referred to as a Gentile Bride.
As a bride or wife we are asked to leave our family and
cling to our Bridegroom : YHvH and His salvation.

A clear reading of Romans 1 in context beginning at
verse 16 shows that those who should know YHvH and his creation
but reject Him are given over to a perverse relationship in direct
opposition to the metaphor of marriage.

Justice and mercy, combined perfectly on the cross of Christ.

He is perfectly just. He is perfectly merciful. We don’t get just one or the other.

There were five cities (Genesis 14:2) and only Zoar was saved because the angels harkened to Lot Genesis 19:22.

The Church has ignorantly taught for years that God doesn't judge. This is because individuals do not want to think that a bad thing may have happened to themselves or those that they care about because they may be in error. They would rather think that God is out of the equation and things happen mainly according to blind chance. This allows them to not have to examine themselves to find out if there is any sin in their lives. Many Christians would rather remain under the delusion that they are living nearly perfect lives, that they have perfect faith and beliefs, certainly not that there may be areas in their lives that needs to change.

This lack of wanting to examine oneself for sins or errors in belief carries over to their understanding of the world. God isn't judging, they think, He is too nice to do that. Therefore people no longer are led to repent of their sins when their lives become more and more insufferable. After all it's all just blind chance so why try to examine oneself or culture on a whole to find out why terrible seemingly judgments happen. They think God certainly doesn't judge, so they count disasters up to such things as the "green house effect".

As individuals and as a culture on the whole people need to come back to the understanding that God's judgments occur upon us when we leave Him and fall into depraved life styles. Then we can understand that when we truly repent and live for Him He will again bless us.

Homosexual are always telling us that if we “don’t like homosexual sex or marriage, then don’t have them.”

But we already know from experience how good their promises are.
