American Sodom (American Reformation I, Nine.)

And there came two angels to Sodom at even; and Lot sat in the gate of Sodom: and Lot seeing them rose up to meet them; and he bowed himself with his face toward the ground;

And he said, Behold now, my lords, turn in, I pray you, into your servant's house, and tarry all night, and wash your feet, and ye shall rise up early, and go on your ways. And they said, Nay; but we will abide in the street all night.

And he pressed upon them greatly; and they turned in unto him, and entered into his house; and he made them a feast, and did bake unleavened bread, and they did eat. But before they lay down, the men of the city, even the men of Sodom, compassed the house round, both old and young, all the people from every quarter:

And they called unto Lot, and said unto him, Where are the men which came in to thee this night? bring them out unto us, that we may know them carnally.

And Lot went out at the door unto them, and shut the door after him, And said, I pray you, brethren, do not so wickedly.

Behold now, I have two daughters which have not known man; let me, I pray you, bring them out unto you, and do ye to them as is good in your eyes: only unto these men do nothing; for therefore came they under the shadow of my roof.

And they said, Stand back. And they said again, This one fellow came in to sojourn, and he will needs be a judge: now will we deal worse with thee, than with them. And they pressed sore upon the man, even Lot, and came near to break the door. But the men put forth their hand, and pulled Lot into the house to them, and shut to the door.

And they smote the men that were at the door of the house with blindness, both small and great: so that they wearied themselves to find the door.

And the men said unto Lot, Hast thou here any besides? son in law, and thy sons, and thy daughters, and whatsoever thou hast in the city, bring them out of this place:

For we will destroy this place, because the cry of them is waxen great before the face of the Lord; and the Lord hath sent us to destroy it.

And Lot went out, and spoke unto his sons in law, which married his daughters, and said, Up, get you out of this place; for the Lord will destroy this city. But he seemed as one that mocked unto his sons in law.

And when the morning arose, then the angels hastened Lot, saying, Arise, take thy wife, and thy two daughters, which are here; lest thou be consumed in the iniquity of the city.

And while he lingered, the men laid hold upon his hand, and upon the hand of his wife, and upon the hand of his two daughters; the Lord being merciful unto him: and they brought him forth, and set him without the city.

And it came to pass, when they had brought them forth abroad, that he said, Escape for thy life; look not behind thee, neither stay thou in all the plain; escape to the mountain, lest thou be consumed.

And Lot said unto them, Oh, not so, my Lord:

Behold now, thy servant hath found grace in thy sight, and thou hast magnified thy mercy, which thou hast shewed unto me in saving my life; and I cannot escape to the mountain, lest some evil take me, and I die:

Behold now, this city is near to flee unto, and it is a little one: Oh, let me escape thither, (is it not a little one?) and my soul shall live.

And he said unto him, See, I have accepted thee concerning this thing also, that I will not overthrow this city, for the which thou hast spoken.

Haste thee, escape thither; for I cannot do anything till thou be come thither. Therefore the name of the city was called Zoar.

The sun was risen upon the earth when Lot entered into Zoar.

Then the Lord rained upon Sodom and upon Gomorrah brimstone and fire from the Lord out of heaven;

And he overthrew those cities, and all the plain, and all the inhabitants of the cities, and that which grew upon the ground.

But his wife looked back from behind him, and she became a pillar of salt.

And Abraham gat up early in the morning to the place where he stood before the Lord:

And he looked toward Sodom and Gomorrah, and toward all the land of the plain, and beheld, and, lo, the smoke of the country went up as the smoke of a furnace.

And it came to pass, when God destroyed the cities of the plain, that God remembered Abraham, and sent Lot out of the midst of the overthrow, when he overthrew the cities in the which Lot dwelt.

~Genesis 19:1-29

I just saw this. I'd heard about it, but this is the first I've seen it.

Apparently, ICE officers ate at a Mexican restaurant and then arrested a bunch of the people who'd just prepared their food.

This is some Sodom and Gomorrah type of shit, right here.
This, arrogance, betrayal of hospitality and discourtesy to or abuse of guests (rather than the gay stuff in particular although that could be argued to be a factor, the Word doesn't emphasize that later) is why God rained fire from the sky and turned people into pillars of salt.

And there's a rock formation that's part of Mount Sodom in Israel that traditions say was those people, it wasn't just Lot's wife, allegedly, although one of the pillars of halite is named after her.

God is going to rain His judgment on America because of this type of shit. Inhospitality and betrayal of one who abides by the stern laws of hospitality in the Middle Eastern cultures that birthed the Holy Books like the Bible, the Koran and the Torah is, theologically in all of those faiths considered a great crime and a Sin before God.

And I'm just sayin' it's not like These Fucking People are even making it hard if God decided to retaliate with diseases and plagues and shit.

Now this was the sin of your sister Sodom: She and her daughters were arrogant, overfed and unconcerned; they did not help the poor and needy. They were haughty and did detestable things before me. Therefore I did away with them as you have seen. ~Ezekiel 16:49-50 (NIV)

Like, come on, when the fuck is enough, enough??

You wanna survive this?

Don't be These Fucking People.

Fight for your own freedom and that of others like the people in Minnesota are doing. Give a shit about other people.

Reject the cult of Donald Trump and the false system of the Beast. Whether dude is Antichrist or just a test run for the Beast of Revelations, too much of American Christianity failed the test.

Stop being a selfish asshole.

Love Thy Neighbor ain't a suggestion.

It's what we'll get judged on.

And I suppose there will be God's Judgment Deniers and people who think it's all some big conspiracy theory or the Deep State or some bullshit.

The Lord won't give a shit about that either.

Remember that.

All those people who screamed "GOD WILL NOT BE MOCKED!" About this, that and the other damn thing from Barack Obama to LGBT rights to women telling them "No" Guess what?? In real terms they're the ones mocking the Lord and worshiping Trump.

His judgment comes, and that right soon.

I'm really starting to think the American Reformation I believe needs to happen may be a result of the Judgment rather than an attempt to prevent it.

But that means it's gonna be too late for some people.

I kept telling people to Repent for a long time, they refused.

What happens next? That's on them.

Слава Україна!

We've got to take the neighborhood back. We've got to go in there. Just forget telling your child to go to the Peace Corps. It's right around the corner. It's standing on the corner. It can't speak English. It doesn't want to speak English. I can't even talk the way these people talk. "Why you ain't where you is go." I don't know who these people are. And I blamed the kid until I heard the mother talk. Then I heard the father talk. This is all in the house. You used to talk a certain way on the corner and you got into the house and switched to English. Everybody knows it's important to speak English except these knuckleheads. You can't land a plane with "why you ain't…". You can't be a doctor with that kind of crap coming out of your mouth. There is no Bible that has that kind of language. Where did these people get the idea that they're moving ahead on this? Well, they know they're not, they're just hanging out in the same place, five or six generations sitting in the projects when you're just supposed to stay there long enough to get a job and move out. ~Bill Cosby, the "Pound Cake" speech.

Freedom is never more than one generation away from extinction. We didn't pass it on to our children in the bloodstream. The only way they can inherit the freedom we have known is if we fight for it, protect it, defend it, and then hand it to them with the well fought lessons of how they in their lifetime must do the same. And if you and I don't do this, then you and I may well spend our sunset years telling our children and our children's children what it once was like in America when men were free. ~Ronald Reagan
