SODOM AND GOMORRAH: THE DAY THE HEAVENS RAINED FIRE

THE DAY THE HEAVENS RAINED FIRE (Genesis 18)  God told Abraham he heard a cry, Against Sodom and Gomorrah’s sins. The outcry was great and their sins were grievous, The cities were evil twins.  Then Abraham approached the Lord and said, As though God would make a mistake, “What if fifty righteous people live there?” What about their sake?  Far be it from you to do such a thing— To the righteous caught in this plight, Treating the righteous and the wicked alike. Won't the Judge of the earth do right?"  The Lord promised He would spare Sodom, If fifty righteous people were there. Abraham lowered the number; Expecting God to be fair.  God lowered the number to forty-five, But Abraham continued to implore. God said for forty He would spare the city, Then that number was lowered more.  God promised to hold back if thirty were found, So Abraham asked for ten less. He said, “What if only twenty can be found?" H
