I wish everyone would stop backing down to fags and other perpetually offended groups.

Well, we now know why Christ warned us to "Remember Lot's wife." All she did on her way out of Sodomy was look back longingly and she became a sack of salt... Christ did say I have foretold you all things, and course He was NOT accepted then and He also said that as this flesh age winds down the majority would NOT accept Him in those days.

“All she did on her way out of Sodomy was look back longingly and she became a sack of salt... “

What did her being turned into salt have to do with sodomy? Not much.

What is salt? It’s inorganic; it doesn’t change; you can “dissolve” it in water, or mix it into something, it still remains unchanged, as salt.

Lot’s wife did not long for sodomy. She longed for the lifestyle Lot was able to provide for her. She was not wanting and willing to head out into a future with no guarantees. G-d had a deeper purpose for Lot and his family and change was the first part of that.

“Looking back” is failing to change, failing to accept change, failing to be allow yourself to be led by G-d into an unknown future.

That’s why Lot’s wife was turned into “salt” (as opposed to being turned into something else) - for desiring to remain fixed and unchanged, even when G-d’s will seeks that change for you.
