Lot Charles Vogan

The story of Lot is our story. This is the same situation that we find ourselves in. What we need to do, when reading the story, is not to find fault with Lot, but to eagerly find out what God will do for any of his people who are in the same predicament. Out of all the characters in the Bible, Lot is one of the best models for the twentieth century man, who lives in a place much bigger than Sodom, perhaps filled with much more wickedness, and finds it increasingly difficult to live a consistent Christian testimony. We need the same God, the same mercy, the same answers, the same deliverance before we get caught up in the coming disaster. Peter got a lot of encouragement from reading the story of Lot, and we show that we understand the point of God's Word when we find hope in it too.
