This week we're taking a look at the story of Sodom and Gomorrah. One of the things we want to address is the idea that God destroyed these cities. We believe that God is love, and that He didn't actually rain fire and brimstone down, but it sure appeared that way to Abram. Instead of seeing this as a story of God's wrath, we see it as showing us that God will go to great lengths to protect the good, and that despite warning to leave a doomed place, evil people choose to stay and thus ultimately doom themselves.
