Genesis 19:1 (KJV) What A Mess

Genesis 19:1 (KJV)
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;

These are the same angels that:

• Had approached to Abraham’s tent 
• At about the same time 
• Under the same circumstances

Lot greeted them in much the same fashion as Abraham had:

• Lot offered them lodging the same as Abraham and 
• Lot prepared for them a meal the same as Abraham 

I do observe, however, that:

• Abraham dwelt in a tent and Lot in a house 
• Abraham was promised a child on this occasion while Lot will lose his
• Sarah is made a mother shortly but Lot’s wife soon dies
• Abraham prays for the safety of others while Lot’s whole concern is for self

What a mess we make when we choose the friendship of the world.
