ArchivedWhat was the sin of Sodom?TRUTHSETSUFREE!, interpreting the Bible through the eyes of prejudice does not promote truth, it promotes discord. Sodom was not destroyed because of Genesis 19:5 according to the Bible. But, lets look at this verse in a fuller context and see what you are leaving out. Notice the words I bolded? This indicates or tells us that the women of Sodom were included with those who sought to “know” the two angels. Paul’s instructions to Timothy included: To rightly divide the word of truth in regards to Sodom and her sisters one must look at how the Bible and God viewed Sodom in the whole Bible. In Isaiah 1:10, 3:19 God compares the Judah and Jerusalem to Sodom, which was an idolatrous city as well as an immoral, arrogant, haughty and lazy society. In Jeremiah 23:14 God through His prophet states: Adultery, lies, promoting evil, and lack of repentance are what is emphasized, not homosexual activity. In Ezekiel 16:48 God again calls Jerusalem a city of greater abominations than Sodom (see verse 2). Jesus Christ our Lord said of Sodom: And in: Jesus teaches us that as abominable as the sins of Sodom were the Gospel would have redeemed them and Peter teaches the destruction of Sodom was an example of God’s wrath and judgment visited upon the ungodly, not just the homosexual. Only mans prejudice ignores the God’s full teaching about Sodom and only man uses prejudice to ignore the whole truth of His word. Fear of God’s wrath and judgments will not sway the gay community, however, the Gospel of Jesus Christ can. So preach the gospel and let the Holy Spirit do His job since judging the lost is not found in our job description from the Lord. |
