Read Genesis 19 (Sodom & Gomorrah)

Even though Lot chose Sodom, He's still called a "righteous man" (2 Peter 2:7). Why do you think that is?

Why was Lot sitting in the city gate? (19:1)

Why did Lot insist on the angels staying at his house? (19:2-3)

Why did Lot offer his daughters to the mob outside? (19:8) Is this justifiable?

Why did Lot have so little influence over his sons-in-law? (19:16)

Why do you think Lot was hesitant to leave Sodom? (19:16)

Why was Lot's wife punished? (19:26)

Destroying two entire cities seems harsh. Was it warranted? Why? (Genesis 19:1-11; Ezekiel 16:48-50, Matthew 10:11-16)

How does Abraham's and Lot's reactions to the visitors compare with this reasoning?

What lesson can your house learn from Sodom and Gomorrah? Your church?

If this upset God so much, what does this tell us about the character and priorities of God?

How do we see this character in the ministry of Jesus?

Given Lot's actions in 19:30ff, how can he still be called "righteous"?

What do we know about the Moabites and the Ammonites? (1 Samuel 14:47; 2 Chronicles 20:1)

Who else was born as a descendent of this union? (Ruth 1:4; Matthew 1:5) Distributed by Tubemogul.
