What's your Lot in life Lalania?

[Cassia]

What does it mean to be save yet as thru fire? We need only to look at Lot to find the answer. He escaped from fire and brimstone. Freed by God's hand he is not really free because he chose to dwell in the gates of Sodom rather than in the tent of Mamre where Abraham found the friendship of the Lord. Lot's eyes were stayed on Sodom where the things of the world dwell rather than where his pilgrim brother had found another object to set his affections on. It was the same attraction that previously Abram had for Egypt that resulted in all the riches added to him but at the expense of Sariah that he had presented as his sister. Both Lot and Abram had increased their riches so much that they had to part ways. I think that we all must come to that choose in life.

What I find interesting about Lot is that he was still considered a righteous man. But his losses were great and his end was worse than his beginning.

2 Peter 2:7-8
and if He delivered righteous Lot, vexed with the filthy conduct of the wicked
(for that righteous man, having dwelt among them seeing and hearing, was vexed in his righteous soul day after day with their unlawful deeds)—​

 

[NewCreation435]

It means to be saved, but to have very little reward for the fruit that was born during that person's lifetime

(H)is kingdom is not of this world. Many of the greatest saint suffered under great persecution.
