What does Ellen White write about...
Adventistische Schriften über: "Was Lot's offer to hand over his daughters to the crowd a result of Sodom's influence?"
Answer
The provided documents confirm that Lot's stay in Sodom weakened his faith and his judgment. Although his specific offer to hand over his daughters to the crowd is not explicitly analyzed as a single action in the texts, it is emphasized that the corrupt influences of the city dulled his moral senses. This led to him no longer being able to clearly discern God's intentions, and his trust in the Lord was weakened.
The Corrupting Influence of Sodom on Lot
»When Lot moved to Sodom, he was determined to keep himself free from injustice and to command his household after him. But he failed miserably. The corrupting influences around him affected his own faith, and the association of his children with the inhabitants of Sodom linked his interests to theirs to some extent.«
Numbness of Moral Perception
»Lot had been surrounded by corrupting influences for so long that his sensibility had become dulled and he could not recognize God's works and His intentions; he could not trust in His hands to carry out His command. ... The lingering in the godless city had weakened his faith and his trust in the Lord's righteousness.«

Why I built EGW Vision
Hello, I am Stephan Krol. I started this Ellen White website to make the writings of Ellen G. White and the Adventist pioneers easier to access for everyone.
EGW Vision helps you find topics, statements, and quotes faster, especially when many original sources are not yet fully available in your language. The tool searches semantically, groups relevant content by topic, and presents matching results as clearly as possible in your language.
My hope is that this tool supports personal Bible study, strengthens trust in the original sources, and helps more people discover the message of these writings with clarity, depth, and joy.
