City of Millions

| But you also talk about the days of Lot. | |
| And what is the difference between the two of them that we might know right now of how we prepare for what's going on? | |
| Because it seems like people think Sodom and Gorimora was a Sunday school picnic or something. | |
| Yeah, no, no, no. | |
| I write a lot about what that was all about in this book, too. | |
| And yeah, Sodom and Gomorrah was really a metroplex of five cities. | |
| And all the archaeology they're doing now, they said it was a city, it was the size of Chicago. | |
| It was 200 square miles. | |
| And millions and millions of people lived there before the fire came. | |
| And even in some of the secular archaeological, like National Geographic and those things, the exploration they're doing over there now and digging up entire buildings and structures and they found cemeteries and it's all along the Dead Sea. | |
| I can remember 20-something years ago when I went to Israel and you've been going back and forth too. | |
| They were talking about it and they had found a few little artifacts. | |
| Now, you know, the public can't just go in there and tramps all over it, but now you can see from the road, you can see buildings and excavation sites. | |
| So they've done a lot. | |
| But here's what even the secular people that really don't want to deal with what the Bible says, they're trying to explain away what the Bible says, but they don't realize they are verifying because what they're writing about now is they're saying this was a huge metroplex, a huge city, and a thriving city. | |
| The Dead Sea area wasn't always dead. | |
| Well, who would build a 200-square-mile city on a sea that has no fish, no life, no water you can drink? | |
| No, it was alive. | |
| But something happened. | |
| And now from all of the technological advancements we have, they've explored the soil samples, the water samples, everything for this huge swath of land. | |
| And here's what they think. | |
| They say there was a catastrophic meteor strike. | |
| When it came through the atmosphere, it probably, they said, would look like it was raining fire. | |
| Wow. | |
| Well, fire and brimstone, isn't what the Bible talks about. | |

500 Years Of Destruction

|
| Absolutely. | |
| And so the point is, and it said that it polluted, and they said that that whole area from where it hit and the hundreds of square miles around would have been absolutely uninhabitable. | |
| You could not grow anything. | |
| Destroyed the water and the soil, they said, for over 500 years before people could live back in that area. | |
