By H.H. Pope Shenouda III
Lot and the city of Sidom also experienced God's warning before it happened. As this was the first time that fire came down from heaven, it was also the first time that a flood happened in the time of Noah.
The people of Sidom who did not accept the warning of God were destroyed as were who also did not believe it in the days of Noah.
God's warning in regard to eternity and judgement lies ever before us. Inspite of this, many are still immersed in evil and sin as if God had not warned them. They do not fear God in their hearts or judgement in eternity.
