THE LAW OF LOVE, an excerpt

Gen 19:1-38, The Destruction of Sodom and Gomorrah

So far we have seen the pattern in the Bible, that when punishment, curse, destruction, or judgment comes from the throne of the Lord, He is painting by it a picture of salvation by grace through faith. The history is prophesying and revealing to us what the gospel of the kingdom is. This holds true even in the history of the destruction of Sodom and Gomorrah.

Unrepented sin leads to death, for judgment is coming on the cities because of their unrepented sin. However, in the midst of that judgment, just as in the midst of the judgment of Noah’s Flood, the righteous are given the warning to escape the wrath that is coming, and to flee to preserve their lives. The history of the judgment poured out is a prophetic picture painted of the gospel of the kingdom:

For the wages of sin is death, but the gift of God is eternal life through Christ Jesus our Lord. Rom 6:23 KJV

The gospel is proclaimed in the destruction of Sodom and Gomorrah: we earn death for ourselves because of sin, but if we will heed His warning, God will gift us with life.
