"Remember Lot's Wife"
By J M Little
"Remember Lot's Wife."
Lk 17:32. The Lord spoke
those words to the Pharisees
after He reminded them of the
destruction of the Keneration
in Noe's day and the destruc
tion of the inhabitants of
Sodom and Gomorrah in Lot's
day. My friends, we are living
now in the wicked days of Noe
and his nephew Lot.
In the days of Noe and Lot.
"they did eat, they drank, < the
sin of drunkedness) they
married wives, they were
given in marriage, (wife
swapping)..."-"they bought,
they sold, they planted, they
builded..."-but listen to these
sad words; "and the flood
came, AND DESTROYED
THEM ALL."-"it RAINED
FIRE AND BRIMSTONE
FROM HEAVEN, AND
DESTROYED THEM ALL "
Now these are the conditions
the whole world is in today!
Judgment is coming on this
Christ rejecting generation
just as sure as it came on
those generations. You can't
escape the judgment unless
you flee to Christ
Ana tue Lord said;
"Remember Lot's wife." Now
the Lord Jesus Christ put His
stamp of approval on the
destruction of those cities and
the destruction of the wicked
generation in Noe's day. But
what about Lot's wife? Why
does the Lord bold her up as
an example to warn us? In
Genesis 18 and 19 we And the
story leading up to and the
destruction of Sodom and
Gomorrah. When the angels
were leading Lot, Mrs. Lot,
and their two daughters out of
the city, the angel warned
them; "Escape for thy life;
LOOK NOT BEHIND THEE
..."hut in verse 26 of Gen. 19 it
says; "But his wife LOOKED
BACK from behind him, AND
SHE BECAME A PILLAR OF
SALT." Judgment fell swiftly!
Mrs. Lot's heart was in
Sodom, she did not want to see
her city destroyed because she
loved it and all its earthly
ρ teas urn. Mrs. Lot was not
saved. What a tragedy in the
face of the goodness of God.
Here was mercy offered to her
and she refused the Lord's
mercy. This evidences that
there comes a time when the
individual crosses the dead
line of any hope. Mrs. Lot
crossed the deadline, she
rebelled against the command
from the Lord. Once she
erased the deadline there was
no hope How many of you
have some impressions but
you have trifled with them
instead of prizing them and
pleading with the Lord to
bring you on to Christ. Mrs.
Lot's destruction also shows
that the sceptre of grace will
not always be held out to a
sinner. Sinner, what is
keeping you from coining to
Christ? Some of you here in
times past had many impres
sions from the Lord, your
heart was seemingly moved
upon by the Lord under Holy
Spirit conviction. But you
have trifled with those
prescious convictions. Now, 1
can't talk to you about Christ.
Oh how sad is your state! Will
your end be like Mrs. Lot?
We are coming down to the
end of this age. The age of the
Gentiles will soon be over and
the Lord is coming back to
rapture His bride; the blood
bought ones. If you have been
redeemed by His blood you
are looking for His soon
coming. The whole world now
is caught up in a great
economic crisis, all this is
pointing to the Second and
soon coming of Christ. Are you
looking for Him to come? I
am. I know He is faithful and
He is coming. His coming is
my hope. I believe I'll be
living when Christ comes. He
is only coming for His own.
Will you be taken when He
come·? The greatest thing is
all the universe is to know
Christ. This world is going to
be destroyed (II Pet. 3).
Where will you be then my
Before the Lord can bring
judgment on a nation or
people, He first takes His own
into safety. The Ark was built
to shelter Noe and his family
from the judgment of the
flood. The angels gave Lot and
his daughters safety in Zoar
until the judgment of fire was
past. But the Lord always
ordains circumstances to
bring out the rebellion in an
individual's heart so that all
may see what the Lord has
known all the while. In a case
here, some eight years ago I
saw ingratitude and hatred in
a woman's heart. The Lord
ordained the circumstance
that exposed her rebellious
heart so that all could see her
as He knew her to be all along.
I had seen the rebellion in that
heart years ago. The Lord
exoosed her heart and by
God's grace I put the finishing
touches on it. And every soul
who rose up saying I shouldn't
have said what I said about
that woman is just as lost and
on the road to Hell as she is.
Remember this; an unsaved
heart always takes sides with
another unsaved heart. You
cannot go contrary to your
nature! You always take sides
against me because you are
not saved. Now you let that
soak in. Who ever beard you
tell anyone about the Lord
Jesus Christ? No one. Mrs. Lot
took sides with the inhabitants
of Sodom and Gomorrah and
went the same way they went.
Get this; the soul who is
always critical of the Lord's
anointed never gets saved. I
don't know if the Lord is going
to save you or not. Get this;
every soul i&_ being enlight
ened more and more by the
'blessed Holy Spirit, or he is
being blinded more and more
by a demon spirit. Which is it
in your case? Some of you
were very critical of my
testimony in 1972, and now you
are more critical. You are
waxing worse and worse. You
are being blinded more and
more by a demon spirit. Only
a thin cord of mercy is keeping
you out of Hell where Mrs. Lot
is. You can't go on like you are
going, if you do, then you are
going to Hell just as Mrs. Lot
did. The distance from
Charlotte, North Carolina to
Hell is the same distance it
was from Sodom when Mrs.
Lot went to Hell.
I see bo few turning to the
Lord. But I must warn you. I
am commissioned from the
courts of Heaven to warn you.
I am going to have to meet
every one of you at the Great
White Throne Judgment of
Rev. 10:11-12. Paul said; "and
as it is appointed unto men
once to die, but «fier this the
judgment:" (Heb. 9:27) You
can't escape the judgment. At
the judgment, it won't be J.M.
Little you slandered, you'll see
you did it unto my Lord.
It was the pre-Incarna te
Christ who came and talked
with Abraham in the plains of
Mam re (Gen. 18) and told
Abraham He was going to
destroy thoee cities. Abraham
saw and Uflked with the
pre-incarnate Christ with his
naked eye. Abraham begged
the Lord for the salvation of
the city. Listen as Abraham
began to plead for the city;
"And Abraham drew near,
and said. Wilt thou also
destroy the righteous with the
wicked? Peradventure there
be fifty righteous within the
city: wilt thou also destroy
and not spare the place for the
fifty righteous that are
therein?...Shall not the Judge
of all the earth do right? And
the Lord said, if I find in
Sodom fifty righteous within
the city, then I will spare all
the place for their sakes."
(Gen. 18:23-26) Read the rest
of the chapter and see that
Abraham continued to plead
with the Lord for even ten and
the Lord would have spared
the city if that number could
have been found. But that
number of saved souls could
not be found either. Just think,
all that great number of
people and ten saved souls
could not be found) What a
tragedy. What about today my
friend? If Charlotte were to be
destroyed If ten saved souls
could not be found in it would
it be destroyed? I'll quickly
answer for you; Charlotte
would be burned to the ground
just as Sodom and Gomorrah
and all the cities of the plain
(except Zoar). Now you can
eau me in quesuon aoout mai
all you want to. Let me tell you
something else; there is no
such thing as walking with the
Lord and not seeing the judg
ment this world is under!
Remember Lot's wife! Will
you go the way she went? Will
you? Now you think on it. I
realize I am a lone voice
crying in the wilderness of
soothing religion. But you had
better wake up friends. The
Lord is coming and if the Lord
should come tonight, the
Antichrist would rise up and
take over tomorrow morning
and you would see a string of
violence go around the world
as never before. I believe the
Antichrist is in the world
today. Satan imitates Christ.
The Lord Jesus Christ kept
His identity concealed for
thirty years while here on
earth. The Antichrist will also
keep his identity concealed for
a period of time. Salart knows
a lot into the future, the
underworld said a. baby born
in Europe in the early sixties
that would bring peace to the
world by 1980. That could very
well have been the birth of the
Antichrist, I don't know. Wake
up friends! The coming of the
Lord tlrawejh nigh.
