Even if it looks like the garden of the Lord  ...

Even if it looks like the garden of the Lord

Because “it is well-watered everywhere” and plentiful (Gen. 13:10)

We should keep in mind that it is not the garden of the Lord but Sodom and Gomorrah (v. 10)

If the people who live there are wicked exceedingly and sinners against the Lord (v. 13).

If we choose a place like Sodom and Gomorrah by relying on our own understanding (Prov. 3:5)

We may live comfortably and abundantly

But our righteous soul will be tormented day after day (2 Pet. 2:8).
