Have you ever stood in great need of comfort and encouragement? If so, you know that in time of affliction, there is no thought or word that has deeper meaning, nor any possession of greater value, than that of effective and genuine comfort. The objective of this study is to equip us to have the assurance that there is comfort available, and to know how to be comforted, as well as how to be a comfort to others in the fires of affliction.

Ezekiel #15
Spiritual vacuum of the soul (Eph 4:17-24). Discipleship happens in personal relationships (Mar 3:14). Sodomites were prosperous, idol, greedy and spiritually deprave -- persuing things they think would make them happy (Eke 16:49). If you reject Christ you'll accept another; if you reject the Truth you'll accept falsehood (Joh 5:43, 2Th 2:9, 2Ti 4:2-4). Warning to God's people for seeking satisfaction elsewhere (Jer 2:13, Jer 2:21-24). In Ezekiel 16, God calls His people an abomination nine times - loathsome or dispicable. Harlotry in the spiritual sense means preoccupation with things other than God (Jam 4:1-4).
