There are many parallels we can draw between the Biblical account of Sodom and Gomorrah (Genesis 19:1-29) and our modern culture. The people in those cities were unrepentant in their engagement in sexual sins. That characteristic is prevalent across the globe today. People not only consider sexual sins normal, but they celebrate them, much like they did in those wicked cities of old.
It would be easy to spend this entire article digging into this point alone, but there is much written about that, and I am certain you’ve heard it all before. What I want to focus on is the lifestyle of Lot. Day after day he lived among the worst kinds of debauchery and perversion, yet kept himself unstained by it (2 Peter 2:4-10). The people of those cities recognized Lot was different, and they despised him for it (Genesis 19:9). He set a great example for us to follow.
