Pillar of salt or Salt of the Earth?

Lot reached the village just as the sun was rising over the horizon. Then the Lord rained down fire and burning sulfur from the sky on Sodom and Gomorrah.  He utterly destroyed them, along with the other cities and villages of the plain, wiping out all the people and every bit of vegetation.  But Lot’sContinueContinue reading “Pillar of salt or Salt of the Earth?”
