Restoration: Where New Life Begins

Story of Scripture--Day #24 "Judgment and Mercy"

Season 4 Episode 50

Day 24 — Judgment and Mercy | Genesis 19

Genesis 19 confronts us with a hard but necessary truth: God’s judgment is real. Sodom falls—not because God is impatient or harsh, but because persistent wickedness cannot be ignored by a holy God.

Yet this chapter is not only about destruction. It is also about deliverance.

Before judgment falls, God reaches in and rescues Lot. Mercy moves before fire ever falls. Grace interrupts what sin has earned.

Genesis 19 reminds us:

  • God does not overlook sin
  • God does not abandon His people
  • God’s mercy always provides a way of escape

Judgment and mercy are not competing attributes in God—they are perfectly united in His faithfulness and holiness.

This passage calls us to flee compromise, take holiness seriously, and never look back at what God has called us to leave behind. God rescues us not so we can linger near sin, but so we can walk in new life.
