Where do the people of Ammon live?
The people of Ammon live in modern-day Jordan, specifically in the region known as Ammon or Ammonite country. This area in northern Jordan was historically inhabited by the Ammonites, an ancient Semitic people mentioned in the Bible.
Where was Sodom?
Some archaeologists are still debating the location of both cities. Some believe they never existed at all. Yet, evidence from the Ebla Tablets indicates that both cities, together with other nearby towns mentioned in the Bible narrative actually existed. So, in the light of these references such ongoing skepticism appears unwarranted. Further to this a large burial area has been found near one of the possible sites, as has evidence of volcanic activity and balls of sulfur (the brimstone mentioned in the KJV). The relevant sites are near the Dead Sea, near where the Bible says these cities were located. Sodom and Gomorrah were settlements south of the Dead Sea, believed on the Jordan side. It is thought that residents there were mining salt from the nearby Mount Sodom, which was one of the most valuable commodities in those times - and from which we derive the words 'salary' 'soldier' and others. Apparently destroyed by earthquakes, endemic to the area. Given the hostile environment where few would want to live, as well as probable lack of pastimes or female partners, it had a reputation for homosexuality - hence the word 'sodomy'. Naturally after it was destroyed, religious attributions implied their sexual behaviour caused their destruction.
To what little city was Lot hoping to flee after leaving Sodom?
According to the following passage in Genesis it was called Zoar.18And Lot said unto them, Oh, not so, my LORD:19Behold now, thy servant hath found grace in thy sight, and thou hast magnified thy mercy, which thou hast shewed unto me in saving my life; and I cannot escape to the mountain, lest some evil take me, and I die: 20Behold now, this city is near to flee unto, and it is a little one: Oh, let me escape thither, (is it not a little one?) and my soul shall live. 21And he said unto him, See, I have accepted thee concerning this thing also, that I will not overthrow this city, for the which thou hast spoken.22Haste thee, escape thither; for I cannot do anything till thou be come thither. Therefore the name of the city was called Zoar.
Why do you think God gave man the privilege of choice choosing whom we will serve?
God gave man the privilege of choosing whom to serve. because man has 'spirit" and "soul" wherein God gave us the freedom to choose.In the beginning, when Adam and Eve chose to disobey, they lost an eternal life of bliss and passed their sinful nature on to posterity. This was not God’s will and in order to give us a way out he gave us the freedom of choice to allow us to plan and carry out our destination. We can and must choose right or wrong, heaven or hell, this day we must choose to accept Christ and what he did at the cross for us—or we will choose to reject Jesus and live our life in disobedience.It is important to be led by the Spirit of God to avoid making wrong choices. Make a choice to turn to the Lord your God with all your heart and with all your soul. There is a cost to following Jesus. It will cost you everything. The good news is that the everything that it will cost you is worth nothing. And Jesus will give you the real everything as your reward.But as for me and my household, we will serve the LORD (Joshua 24:15).
Can God and devil be present at the same in a believer?
God and the devil can be present at the same time in a believer. Once you place your trust in God and as Jesus to come into your life he sends his Holy Spirit who lives within you and acts almost like a conscience would. His job is to direct us and convict us of sin. However, God does not control us and never forces us to do his will but gives us free will. This means that we can choose right from wrong. When we do wrong we are sinning and God has no part in sin. Therfore we are choosing "flesh" over "spirit" and the flesh is a device of Satan. So while the devil does not "live" in us as Christ does he can operate within us the same time the Holy spirit does. They cannot be active at the same time though. The Holy Spirit give us the choice of who whether we choose right from wrong or God from Satan.

Because God is a loving God who is always ready to forgive, if the person repents. even if the person does not repent and always refuses, much like the people of Sodom and Gomorrah, God still loves that person. He will forgive. He forgave Sodom and Gomorrah out of love. Below is a passage describing the destruction of Sodom and Gomorrah:"By the time Lot reached Zoar, the sun had risen over the land. Then the LORD rained down burning sulfur on Sodom and Gomorrah-from the LORD out of the heavens. Thus he overthrew those cities and the entire plain, including all those living in the cities-and also the vegetation in the land." - Genesis 19: 23-25This part of the Bible below is before the destuction - Abraham and the Lord are bargaining over whether Sodom and Gomorrah will be saved if there are righteous people there:" 20 Then the LORD said, "The outcry against Sodom and Gomorrah is so great and their sin so grievous 21that I will go down and see if what they have done is as bad as the outcry that has reached me. If not, I will know."22 The men turned away and went toward Sodom, but Abraham remained standing before the LORD. [e] 23 Then Abraham approached him and said: "Will you sweep away the righteous with the wicked? 24 What if there are fifty righteous people in the city? Will you really sweep it away and not spare [f] the place for the sake of the fifty righteous people in it? 25 Far be it from you to do such a thing-to kill the righteous with the wicked, treating the righteous and the wicked alike. Far be it from you! Will not the Judge [g] of all the earth do right?"26 The LORD said, "If I find fifty righteous people in the city of Sodom, I will spare the whole place for their sake."27 Then Abraham spoke up again: "Now that I have been so bold as to speak to the Lord, though I am nothing but dust and ashes, 28 what if the number of the righteous is five less than fifty? Will you destroy the whole city because of five people?""If I find forty-five there," he said, "I will not destroy it."29 Once again he spoke to him, "What if only forty are found there?"He said, "For the sake of forty, I will not do it."30 Then he said, "May the Lord not be angry, but let me speak. What if only thirty can be found there?"He answered, "I will not do it if I find thirty there."31 Abraham said, "Now that I have been so bold as to speak to the Lord, what if only twenty can be found there?"He said, "For the sake of twenty, I will not destroy it."32 Then he said, "May the Lord not be angry, but let me speak just once more. What if only ten can be found there?"He answered, "For the sake of ten, I will not destroy it." "- Genesis 18: 20-32

Did God destroy a whole city of gays?
Jewish answer No. Nowhere in the Bible does it say anything like that. In fact, According to the Hebrew Bible, the cities of Sodom and Gomorrah were not destroyed because of gay people. Isaiah 1 The entire first chapter is an utter condemnation of Judah. They are repeatedly compared with Sodom and Gomorrah in their evildoing and depravity. Throughout the chapter, the Prophet lists many sins of the people: rebelling against God, lacking in knowledge, deserting the Lord, idolatry, engaging in meaningless religious ritual, being unjust and oppressive to others, being insensitive to the needs of widows and orphans, committing murder, accepting bribes, etc. There is no reference to homosexuality or to any other sexual activities at all. Jeremiah 23:14 Among the prophets of Jerusalem I have seen something horrible: They commit adultery and live a lie. They strengthen the hands of evildoers, so that no one turns from his wickedness. They are all like Sodom to me; the people of Jerusalem are like Gomorrah." Jeremiah compares the actions of the prophets with the adultery, lying and evil of the people of Sodom. Homosexual activity is not mentioned. Ezekiel 16:49-50 "Now this was the sin of your sister Sodom: She and her daughters were arrogant, overfed and unconcerned; they did not help the poor and needy. They were haughty and did detestable things before me. Therefore I did away with them as you have seen." God states clearly that he destroyed Sodom's sins because of their pride, their excess of food while the poor and needy suffered; sexual activity is not even mentioned. Christian Answer It wasn't just because of gays. He destroyed a whole city that was doing sin, meaning homosexuality, killing, stealing, and other stuff like that.

What was the sin of Sodom and Gomorrah?
Sodom and Gomorrah were settlements south of the Dead Sea, believed on the Jordan side. It is thought that residents there were mining salt from the nearby Mount Sodom, which was one of the most valuable commodities in those times - and from which we derive the words 'salary' 'soldier' and others. Apparently destroyed by earthquakes, endemic to the area. Given the hostile environment where few would want to live, as well as probable lack of pastimes or female partners, it had a reputation for homosexuality - hence the word 'sodomy'. Naturally after it was destroyed, religious attributions implied their sexual behaviour caused their destruction. Being situated at the lowest place on earth, the Dead Sea, the resulting evaporation of sea water is the cause for the salt. Since salt enabled the society to progress from hunter/gatherer, enabling the user to preserve meat instead of daily hunting, and permitted humans to begin developing agriculture, and later - iPhones, it is understandable why it was such a valuable commodity. Even today the surrounding area is relatively fruitful, thanks to underground springs, and surrounding settlements take advantage of it. But it is still located in an extreme desert, as it was a few thousand years ago. The reason for the earthquakes is because the area is situated on the Israel/Jordan Rift Valley, with the Jordanian side relatively moving northward at a rate of 2-2.5mm per year. There has been an estimated 100km movement since it first started at least 50 million years ago.
