"WHAT JESUS SAID" Part #5

And now for the third person that Jesus mentioned regarding His return, Lot's wife.

LOT'S WIFE AND THE DAYS OF THE SON OF MAN

The Lord said, "Remember Lot's wife." What can we remember about this woman? We remember her because she is lost for all eternity in spite of the fact that she was a member of the saved community. She no doubt was personally acquainted with Uncle Abraham, yet she was lost. Remember Lot's Wife!

Remember her in spite of the fact that she was married to a very pious Husband. Years later, as we read the New Testament, it is the Apostle Peter who would call him righteous Lot. Despite what many think today, she could not Ride To Heaven on the coat tails of her husband.

Remember Lot's wife! Remember her also because she entertained heavenly visitors in her home. Two angels have spent the night with her family and yet she was lost. We also have entertained a heavenly visitor. Many a person who has Received the Gift of the indwelling of the Holy Spirit have fallen away.

Remember Lot's Wife! Remember her, because she looked back from behind. She was leaving Sodom, but Sodom was still in her. Many a person has come into the Fellowship of the Church of Christ and still has the world in them. They Look back from behind. They fall behind in Bible reading, they fall behind in prayer, they fall behind in attendance on the Lord's Day and in the observance of The Lord's Supper weekly. Remember Lot's wife!

We will conclude this study next time. God bless as you continue to serve Him!!!
