Sam, I see that you are still on your fishing expedition. Does it make you feel good to be so negatively inclined toward the Holy Bible?
Some day you will catch something that you are not fishing for and it will swallow you whole.
Life is about growth and maturity through adversity and conflict within ourselves. There is nothing new under the sun that you can lay on the characters of the Bible.
The Lord reigns and lives forever. That is what matters. We have the opportunity to grow toward the likeness of the perfect man who was the Son of God. He showed us the way by His example, not Lot or David, or Bathsheba or any of the others who were weak in their own power.......

The Lord reigneth, blessed be the rock of our Salvation.

Bro. Sam.
Don't mean to "slam"
Don't worry 'bout Lot
Here's what we're taught

Abraham's prayer got Lot out of "trouble"
The angel's told Lot's to move "on the double"
What transpired wasn't too nice
For Lot's sins, he paid a terrible price

His reasoning was "dulled" by his sinful surrounding
His offers of hospitality aren't worth expounding
Suffice to say
T'was judgment day

Lot had not Old Testament or New Testament to read
He had no inkling of an apostles creed
He was an entrepreneur, but a selfish man
Abraham let Lot "choose" and Lot chose this "plan"

The next thing we know, Lot is co-mingling & living in Gomorrah
But then again, he never so much as had the "Torah"
But when one compromises and embraces sin
It only becomes a matter of "not if", but "when"

So, Sam if you are an honest sinner and not an ornery sinner, You shall know the truth and the truth shall set you free.

Honest sinners find God, Ornery sinners do not.

Sincerely,
OMB
