Traveler reminded me of Lot, and I always wondered how Lot could give his daughters to those men in Sodom..which parent can do such a thing?

He is a man of God, this boggles my mind...

And also how could Lots daughters use their own father to get offspring and make him drunk first?

What a "coincidence" I happened to be reading and pondering this same thing last night.

Maybe we should look even closer at this.

Perhaps our FATHER is trying to tell us something?

I've been troubled by it a lot too.  Makes no sense to me.  Someone once gave me an explanation of how his daughter's offspring became some significant group of people but I still didn't get it and to offer them to the wicked men--makes no sense!

Anybody out there have a clue?

I was reading the story from Lot a few days ago too, maybe we ought to discuss this more, because it doesn't make sense Sodom is destroyed because of sin and look what they do right after they escaped!

I read here in a Bible commantary that Lot was a just man, but had become worldly and he lost his testemony 2 Peter2:7-8-14

And his daughters they have been influenced by Sodom's vile standards.

God saved Lot and his daughters because of Abrahams prayers, if Abraham didn't pray ,would God still have saved them?

Here's another one for ya... Abraham and Sarah disobeyed GOD by him having intercourse with Hagar and making Ishmael. However, GOD says he will bless him and make him a great nation.

But... when GOD speaks of himself, he says I am the God of Abraham, Isaac and Jacob...

he doesn't say.. Abraham, Ishmael, Isaac and Jacob..

Also, why does he "mark" Cain?

Ismael was to be a wild man and his hand against every nation, Gen 16:12, this is where Islaam began,  Cain was the wicked one-1John 3:12 and a type of evil Jude 11.

Maybe Lot was shown to be a sinner but saved by his faith in God and the help of Abraham's prayers, despite his sin, to point to us being saved by the prayers of Jesus (?)

Ishmael became the father of the Arabs,can it be that because of the sin from Abraham the Arabs got in trouble from then on until now...until Jesus comes back?

Cain was not pleasing the Lord ,I believe that it was because of the sacrifice he brought to the Lord, he should have brought a blood offering instead of fruits and vegtables.

He substituted the bloodoffering.

Abel 's offering point to the death of Christ who takes away the sins of this world.

God marked Cain as sign for protection,so nobody would kill him.

Your thoughts about this?

Love in Christ,Angels

Do you want to start a little Bible course where we discuss one person from the bible at the time and go more indept?

Keeps us reading the Bible!!

On Lot:

We have to remember that Lot was considered "Righteous" by the Lord because Abraham pressed the Lord to save Sodom and Gomorah for "the righteous" even down to "ten" that were found therein.

    • Exhortation - October 24, 2024

      Albert Finch posted a blog entry in Albert Finch Ministry,

      You are coming up higher in this season – above the assignments of character assassination and verbal arrows sent to manage you, contain you, and derail your purpose. Where you have had your dreams and sleep robbed, as well as your peace and clarity robbed – leaving you feeling foggy, confused, and heavy – God is, right now, bringing freedom back -- now you will clearly see the smoke and mirrors that were set to distract you and you will disengage.

      Right now God is declaring a "no access zone" around you, and your enemies will no longer have any entry point into your life. Oil is being poured over you to restore the years that the locust ate and give you back your passion. This is where you will feel a fresh roar begin to erupt from your inner being, and a call to leave the trenches behind and begin your odyssey in your Christ calling moving you to bear fruit that remains as you minister to and disciple others into their Christ identity.

      This is where you leave the trenches and scale the mountain to fight from a different place, from victory, from peace, and from rest. Now watch as God leads you up higher above all the noise, above all the chaos, and shows you where you have been seated all along with Him in heavenly places where you are UNTOUCHABLE. This is where you leave the soul fight, and the mind battle, and learn to fight differently.

      You will know how to live like an eagle and lead others to the same place of safety and protection that God led you to, which broke you out of the silent prison you were in. Put your war boots on and get ready to fight back! Refuse to lay down -- get out of bed and rebuke what is coming at you. Remember where you are seated and live from that place.

      Acts 1:8 - “But you will receive power when the Holy Spirit has come upon you, and you will be my witnesses … to the end of the earth.”

    • The Simchat Torah War -- Is this a Water Breaking Moment of Revival?

      George posted a topic in Biblical Topics,

      George Whitten, the visionary behind Worthy Ministries and Worthy News, explores the timing of the Simchat Torah War in Israel. Is this a water-breaking moment? Does the timing of the conflict on October 7 with Hamas signify something more significant on the horizon?

    • Understanding the Enemy!

      George posted a topic in Study Group,

      Understanding the Enemy!

      I thought I write about the flip side of a topic, and how to recognize the attempts of the enemy to destroy lives and how you can walk in His victory!

      For the Apostle Paul taught us not to be ignorant of enemy's tactics and strategies.

      2 Corinthians 2:112  Lest Satan should get an advantage of us: for we are not ignorant of his devices. 

      So often, we can learn lessons by learning and playing "devil's" advocate.  When we read this passage,

      Mar 3:26  And if Satan rise up against himself, and be divided, he cannot stand, but hath an end. 
      Mar 3:27  No man can enter into a strong man's house, and spoil his goods, except he will first bind the strongman; and then he will spoil his house. 

      Here we learn a lesson that in order to plunder one's house you must first BIND up the strongman.  While we realize in this particular passage this is referring to God binding up the strongman (Satan) and this is how Satan's house is plundered.  But if you carefully analyze the enemy -- you realize that he uses the same tactics on us!  Your house cannot be plundered -- unless you are first bound.   And then Satan can plunder your house!

      Daniel: Pictures of the Resurrection, Part 3

      Shalom everyone,

      As we continue this study, I'll be focusing on Daniel and his picture of the resurrection and its connection with Yeshua (Jesus).

    • Abraham and Issac: Pictures of the Resurrection, Part 2

      George posted a topic in Study Group,

      Abraham and Issac: Pictures of the Resurrection, Part 2
      Shalom everyone,

      As we continue this series the next obvious sign of the resurrection in the Old Testament is the sign of Isaac and Abraham.

      Gen 22:1  After these things God tested Abraham and said to him, "Abraham!" And he said, "Here I am."
      Gen 22:2  He said, "Take your son, your only son Isaac, whom you love, and go to the land of Moriah, and offer him there as a burnt offering on one of the mountains of which I shall tell you."

      So God "tests" Abraham and as a perfect picture of the coming sacrifice of God's only begotten Son (Yeshua - Jesus) God instructs Issac to go and sacrifice his son, Issac.  Where does he say to offer him?  On Moriah -- the exact location of the Temple Mount.
