These two chapters of Genesis were just messed up all the way around. The cities of Sodom and Gomorrah were full of wicked people and sin. So, God and two angels came down onto Earth to smite these two cities for their wickedness. But, first, God stopped to talk to Abraham and tell him that God will be blessing Abraham and Sarah with another child soon, and what his plans were for Sodom and Gomorrah. Abraham tried to persuade God to save the city if there is at least 10 righteous people in the cities. Unfortunately, for Abraham, favor (aka God) was not on his side. There was no righteous people in either city. So God rained down fire and brimstone on the cities. Abraham's son, Lot, and his family were lead out of the city by two angels and told not to look back during the destruction. But Lot's wife did,and she was turned into a pillar of salt. Lot's daughters feeling lonely and sexually-deprived; made their father drunk and laid with him so that they could carry his seed. Like I said,the whole thing was just screwed up.
Every action is followed by a consequence. That consequence can either be good or bad. If you do something bad then at some point that will be reciprocated on your life. No bad deed goes unpunished.
