“There were no Christians in Sodom so I know things cant get quite that bad.”
I believe there were lots of “Christians” in both Sodom and Gomorrah. I think there were Christians much like the ones who, in this day and time, attend all those “tolerant” mega churches and denominations that will let homosexuals profane the altar of their churches by performing marriage ceremonies for them; Christians who call themselves such until being a Christian interferes with their ability to make money or be accepted on the social scene. I also believe that those “Christians”, just like many of them today, thought they could equivocate, twist and subvert what The Word says to suit their convenience. Those today most likely do fully believe that they are good and tolerant Christians and will believe that until they’re swept away along with the jobs, salaries, positions and social and political standings that they gave their souls to protect.
Lot choose the well-watered plain; thinking that the lifestyle of those already there would not affect his family.
