Romans 13:12, Cast Off the Works of Darkness
A serious indictment is given here for the believers to repent of their sins. This is a call to self-examination and confession of sins. Let sin be rid of and let holiness be our portion. The Bible character Lot, the nephew of Abraham, was vexed by the immorality and sin-sickened of the inhabitants of Sodom. Yet, he tarried there hoping to make an earthly gain by his association with the men of Sodom. He suffered great loss. His wife was judged by God. She turned into a pillar of salt. His daughters were so plagued by the ill-moral standards of the city, they committed incest with their father.
