Most commercials advocate pleasure-seeking and that’s how merchants make their money. Well, life isn’t just about pleasure. Pleasure-seeking shouldn’t be the only goal in our earthly existence. One noteworthy point is that not all pleasure is bad and it can be neutral.
Many people wrongly pursue a pain-free lifestyle. Numerous folks only live for pleasure. One of the greatest obstacles of becoming a follower of Christ is pleasure. The devil craftily entices non-believers with pleasure, so that they would ignore their eternal destiny. Also, Satan tempts believers with pleasure, as it would mar their spiritual walk with Christ. Let’s ponder God’s Word.
