Hot Time in Old Sodom Town. Gen 18:20-21 “The outcry of Sodom and Gomorrah is indeed great, and their sin is exceedingly grave.” Sin = Noise or Dissonance Not all sin is the same! ASV: “Very Grievous”

There is nothing gay about homosexuality Sexual perversion against nature. “God made man upright, but man has sought out many inventions.” Ecc 7:29 Just the old law! Jude 7 & Romans 1:26-27

Jude 7 A Sodom and Gomorrah and the cities around them, indulged in gross immorality and went after strange flesh, are exhibited as an example in undergoing the punishment of eternal fire.

Dictionary definition Sodomy: “From the homosexual proclivities of the men of the city in Genesis 19:1-11 Anal sex with a member of the or same sex; also : copulation with an animal.”

Romans 1: For this reason God gave them over to degrading passions; for their women exchanged the natural function for that which is unnatural, 27 and in the same way also the men abandoned the natural function of the woman and burned in their desire toward one another, men with men committing indecent acts and receiving in their own persons the due penalty of their error. 28 And just as they did not see fit to acknowledge God any longer, God gave them over to a depraved mind, to do those things which are not proper.

2 Peter 2:6-10 If God condemned the cities of Sodom and Gomorrah to destruction by reducing them to ashes, having made them an example to those who would live ungodly lives thereafter; 7 and if He rescued righteous Lot, oppressed by the sensual conduct of unprincipled men... 8(for by what he saw and heard that righteous man, while living among them, felt his righteous soul tormented (vexed KJ) day after day by their lawless deeds)

Homosexuality = Sin Must be something can be controlled. Not a matter of genes but the will! Temptation for some, not others. Gen 18:14 Can be overcome! I Cor 10:13 “Never tempted more than..bear, always find way of escape.”

Does your prayer life have this capacity? 18:22-24 Holy Boldness Six times Abram changed God’s mind! PRAYER CHANGES THINGS! Jas 5:16

Lot and Sodom Made wrong decisions.. $$$$$ Gen 13:10-13 Peer Pressure I Cor 15:33 Consequences of our choices rule us the rest of our lives.. Can be forgiven but still look back with deep regret.

We Learn that... The Lord will deliver the righteous.. (Gen 18:25) He keeps His promises (12:3, 19:29). Remembered Abram... The Lord will punish the wicked (19:24-25) Picture of Hell. Sin is recurrent (19:30-37) Sin isn’t passed on personally but has long lasting effects (19:37)
