The Destruction of Sodom and
Lots Wife Looking Back
By the Rev. George Henry Dole
By the Rev. George Henry Dole
Pastor of the Church of the New Jerusalem

Have we not recently seen this
state Of self-love exemplihed in the
world? The Imperialists OF Ger
many had abandoned, "fullness Of
bread" they were naughty. Their
self-love aspired to control the whole
world. They cared not for the poor.
or at what cost their self-love was
gratified. and they would have ex-
terminated nations rather than deny
their exalted self-love. And did not
fire and birthstone literally rain from
heaven upon them?
Are there any who, like Lots wife.
look back and yearn for the former
conditions? Lots wife looked be-
hind, and became a pillar OF salt.
Salt kills vegetation. In olden times
when a city was destroyed, it was
sown with salt to indicate that no
one should live there again.
Fire and birthstone rained from
heaven upon Sodom and Gomorrah.
Self-love is like burning birthstone
1t quickly breaks out into flame. The
fire seems to come from heaven, be-
cause self-love burns from opposi-
tion to the laws and life OF Heaven.
Can we not now read the lesson
clearly? Flee from self-love. It's sui
phurous fires will consume all
heavenly life. as all iifa was burned
out OF Sodom. Having once re-
nounced selflshness, look not back
to the former states OF indulgence,
haughhness, and self-eratifcation
II we set out to leave the spiritual
Sodom, and then look behind, yearn-
ing for the former fiesh-pots, the lit
tie good that prompted us to repent
will be destroyed. THE last state OF
that man is worse than the first"
The heart will be like a city sown
with salt. We will not be living men
with pity compassion, mercy. and
alive with the joys OF love and SER
vice, but become like Lots wife,
walking,/pillars OF salt, souls with
everything living desecrated. "No
man having put his hand to the plow,
and looking back, is Mt for the king
dom OF God" Jesus said, "Remem-
Der Lots wife"

The story Of the destruction oil
Sodom and Gomorrah and Of Lots
wife, is a most familiar one. sodom
and Gomorroh we're very wicked
cities. They were TO be destroyed.
Lot and his wife we're warned to
flee. and not to look behind. Lots
wife looked behind, and became a
pillar (statue) OF salt (Gen. 49,
To understand this unique Incl
ent, one must know the particular
sin for which Sodom was destroyed
It's sin is generally supposed to be
sodomy. but that was not its domi-
nant or prevailing evil. The Bible
tells clearly the nature OF the evil
that possessed it. This was the
iniquity Of thy sister Sodom. pride,
fullness OF bread, and abundance OF
idleness was in her and in her daugh-
ters. neither did she strengthen the
hand of the poor and needy. And
they were naughty" Geek. 16, AZ
SOD Again Rev. xi, s, says that the
Lord was crucifed in the "city which
is suirithally called Sodom." Then
jdst what does Sodom mean spirit
ually;" that is. for what does it
stand in the spirit, the heart? From
Ezekiel 1t is evident that Sodom
means spiritually the state OF the
idle rich who live in indulgence and
do not consider the poor or any one
but themselves. This state is love
OF self gone to seed. for the Sodom-
ties were said to be naughty" And
yet, It was more than this, for Reve-
latlon says that the Lord was cruel
fed in Sodom. This shows that the
state Of Sodom was such intense self
love. that its people were so satisfied
with the sense-pleasure OF riches and
abundance that they did not want
to be molested in their sordidness.
They we're loath to be troubled with
the sighings OF the poor. and they
had come into such a state that they
would put to death anyone who
would reprove them. II was this
state OF the world that crucifed the
Lord for it is said that He was cru
Gifted in the city spiritually called
Sodom.
