Study 1B LOT: A SAVED SOUL – A LOST LIFE
(Scripture Portions: Genesis 12: 1-5; 13: 1-13; 14: 1-16; and 19: 1-38)

In Genesis 19: 15-16, we read that Lot “hesitated” –- which tells us that his conscience was seared (1 Timothy 4: 2). How slow he was to obey God, even when God had warned him of impending judgment! –- look up 2 Thessalonians 1: 7 – 9. These are some of the most solemn words in the Bible.

3 . Lot had no influence for God .
He did not look, walk or act like a man of God, and nobody ever dreamed that he was one. As a believer he should have exerted a powerful influence for the Lord, but because he was so weak and so worldly his influence for God counted for nothing at all.
He had no influence with the men of Sodom. We learn this from Genesis 19: 1-11, and particularly notice in verses 7 –- 9 that they laughed him to scorn. The men of Sodom must have despised Lot, and the world despises a worldly, “make-believe” Christian.
He had no influence with his children. We learn this from Genesis 19: 8; this is a verse to make us shudder, but is there a sadder verse in the whole Bible than Genesis 19: 14?
He had no influence with his own wife. We learn this from Genesis 19: 26, which tells the solemn story of her disobedience and her tragic end.

4 . Lot was out of touch with God .
5 . Lot went from bad to worse and he became hardened by the deceitfulness of sin .
6 . Lot lost his honour and was involved in shame with his own daughters .

7 . Finally, Lot was literally “saved ; yet so as by fire .”
He was “plucked out of the fire” –- look up Zechariah 3: 2, and compare 1 Corinthians 3: 15 and Jude 23. Every believer will have to appear before the Judgment Seat of Christ –- look up Romans 14: 10. There, we shall either be rewarded for faithfulness, or we shall suffer loss because, like Lot, we have lived an easy-going, careless, worldly life. All believers will be saved, but some will be saved “yet so as by fire” –- look up and seriously consider with prayers 1 Corinthians 3: 11-15.
God bless you.
