The third example that Peter uses is the people of Sodom and Gomorrah. "He condemned the cities of Sodom and Gomorrah by burning them to ashes, and made them an example of what is going to happen to the ungodly." 2 Peter 2:6
The people of Sodom and Gomorrah were soft, affluent and immoral. They wanted the pleasures of the day at the expense of their future. There were false teachers in Peter's day and there are false teachers in our day who live in luxury and even fall into immorality because they have taught that God wants us to be happy rather than to be holy.
