If someone were to ask you to create a of picture ‘comfort’ in your mind, what images would you create? It is a question that I have asked people, in order to find out how people interpret comfort. I was surprised at some of the answers, which made me question people’s perception of how they interpret comfort in their daily lives. I imagined the usual sunset across the ocean imagery and the sound of lapping waves. But as I continued the questioning, I began to realize the imagery relates to how we want to feel in our minds. Comfort is as an emotional state of well being.

What is more important? Should a Christian woman go to college to become a career woman or should she learn all she can about how to be a good helpmeet to her husband and stay happily married for life?

You may be wondering how Christians are being deceived? Sometimes Christians are deceived without ever knowing it because they have already fallen into a worldly deception, whatever it might be.
