But Lot's wife looked back and she became a pillar of salt.
What a wonderful God we serve! He could have left us wallowing in our own sin, living in a world of bad choices and even worse consequences. But instead He offered us grace. He gave us a second chance. He provided a way out.
I love I Corinthians 6:9-11 (wait for it - verse 11 gets really good)
Do you not know that the wicked will not inherit the kingdom of God? Do not be deceived: Neither the sexually immoral nor idolaters nor adulterers nor male prostitutes nor homosexual offenders nor thieves nor the greedy nor drunkards nor slanderers nor swindlers will inherit the kingdom of God. And that is what some of you WERE. But you were washed, you were sanctified, you were justified in the name of the Lord Jesus Christ and by the Spirit of our God.
It doesn't matter what you were. The point is you were washed, sanctified, and justified in the name of Jesus, Amen.
Don't look back.
