JUDGES - AS IN THE DAYS OF LOT . . .

If you're feeling betrayed by the current system of justice in our beloved united States of America, take a moment to reflect on the end time prophecy about Lot's life, and what it was like in the ancient cities of Sodom and Gomorrah.

Luke 17:28 - 30 states:

"Likewise, even as it happened in the days of Lot: they ate, they drank, they bought, they sold, they planted, they built; but in the day that Lot went out from Sodom, it rained fire and sulfur from the sky, and destroyed them all. It will be the same way in the day that the Son of Man is revealed."

The prophet Isaiah also prophesied in Isaiah 1:9;

"Unless Yahweh of hosts had left to us a very small remnant, We would have been as Sodom; We would have been like Gomorrah."

So, then;

What was justice like in Sodom and Gomorrah?

Why was Sodom and Gomorrah destroyed?


For the answer, see the apochrypal Book of Jasher Chapter 19 (XIX).

(If you're unfamiliar with the Book of Jasher, you'll find it is mentioned in Joshua, 10:13 and II. Samuel, 1:18.)
