“Whosoever shall do the will of my father which is in heaven the same is my brother and sister, and mother” (Matt. 12:50).

How often we find people who prefer to love their relations than to do the will of God. They think: ‘How can we leave so and so? How can we hurt so and so? How can we wound so and so? At the same time they grieve the holy Spirit by going against the will of God.

It is quite clear that Lot had no desire for heavenly things because when Abraham asked him to choose the land which lay before him, Lot chose a good land not far from Sodom and Gomorrah (V 10 ) Lot dwelt in the cities of the plain and pitched his tent towards Sodom. Lot knew the condition of Sodom and Gomorrah at that time. It was not a secret. The cities were well known everywhere for their wickedness and shame. Abraham said to Lot: “If you go to the right, I will go to the left and if you go to the left, I will go to the right.”

Lot chose a place not very far from Sodom and Gomorrah. He was attracted by the fertility of the land. He might have thought “ I am not inside Sodom and Gomorrah. I am going to live outside.” But in chapter 19:1 he was inside Sodom. In those days the elders of that city came to the gate for judgment, and soon he was made an elder of that city. He probably intended to live outside the city, and possibly thought that he could do some good when the men of Sodom and Gomorrah requested him to be an elder.
