Those two communities are for sure the Bible's stand-out examples of true sin
cities, very much worse than Las Vegas which nowadays is practically a theme
park.
● Jude 1:7 . . Sodom and Gomorrah, and the cities around them in a similar
manner to these, gave themselves over to fornication and gone after strange flesh.
The Greek word translated "fornication" basically means to be utterly unchaste.
A lack of chastity is exemplified by a broad spectrum of unholy carnality including,
but not limited to adultery, incest, living together, casual sex, swinger sex, wife
swapping, sex between consenting adults, sex between consenting minors, sex
between teachers and underage students, sex with a sex toy, sex with a mannequin
and/or sex with an inflatable doll, etc. To be "utterly" unchaste implies not just a
preference for those kinds of sexual behaviors, but an addiction to them.
The word for "strange" basically means other or different, i.e. out of the ordinary,
viz: men sleeping with women isn't strange. But men sleeping with men, and/or
women sleeping with women, is rather odd, i.e. deviant.
● 2Pet 2:6 . . He turned the cities of Sodom and Gomorrah into ashes-- condemned
them to destruction --making them an example to those who afterward would live
impiously.
● Rev 21:8 . .The vile and the sexually immoral-- their place will be in the fiery lake
of burning sulfur. This is the second death.
The Greek word translated "vile" basically pertains to that which is repulsive and
disgusting. (Pride is definitely the wrong name for an LGBT event.)
● Gen 13:13 . .The people of Sodom were wicked; and sinners before The Lord
exceedingly.
The Hebrew word for "wicked" basically means bad, and "exceedingly" basically
means vehement, i.e. intense; all of which suggests outright insolence, impudence,
and defiance; viz: standing up to God and asserting the right to live life on one's
own terms.
