War in Sodom and Gomorrah - Gen14
Gen14:2 that they made war with Bera king of Sodom, and with Brisha king of Gomorrah...
Althought it's a place that's well watered, there's no peace, there's war, constant war.
We might have friends or relatives that have chosen to go there, a modern day name for Sodom and Gomorrah can be a pub, casino, red light area, or simply a place that's just outside God's calling: career, interest, addictions, relationships,etc. And they've lost the battle, and become slaves to drugs, sex, alcohol, different drives,etc.
Gen14 "14When Abram heard that his relative had been taken captive, he led out his trained me, born in his house, three hundred and eighteen, and went in pursuit...16 He brought back all the goods, and also brought back his relative Lot with his possessions, and also the women, and the people."
People who follow God's calling can actually have the strength and power to help the people who are lost to get out of their bondage again. They're the hope to the lost.
