How do we know the story of Sodom and Gomorrah is true?

Answered in 1 source

The story of Sodom and Gomorrah is affirmed in Scripture and serves as a historical account of divine judgment.

The narrative of Sodom and Gomorrah is presented in Genesis 19 as an account of God's judgment against the rampant wickedness and immorality of these cities. This historical event is also referenced by Jesus in Luke 17:28-30, where He draws parallels between the days of Lot and the future coming judgment. The accounts found in Scripture are authoritative, presenting these events as divine actions within history, meant to convey spiritual truth regarding sin, judgment, and mercy.

Furthermore, the severity of God's judgment reflects His holiness and justice, providing a foundational understanding of sin's consequences. Rejecting or minimizing this historical account equates to questioning the truthfulness of God's Word. As believers, we affirm this story's truth not only through biblical affirmation but also by recognizing its continued relevance as a warning against spiritual complacency and disobedience.
