Compare ways in which the concepts of "god," "person," "environment," "health", and "nursing" would be defined according to colossians 1 in the bible.

The Colossians were infected with heresy.

Explanation: Paul wrote the letter of Colossians to contradict this infection. In Colossians, we find the greatest declaration of Christ’s deity and sufficiency found in Scripture. What Paul wrote then seems written expressly for our own day when so many “teachers” and “groups” are trying to rob Jesus Christ of His deity and sufficiency for our salvation through grace alone and our acceptance to God apart from works.   It’s always time to check for infection in our thinking. We may discover that we have a concept about Jesus Christ, salvation, or the Christian life that is based on man-made tradition or philosophy instead of on Scripture. For “healthy living,” we will need to recognize that “infection” and give it up to accept the truth about Christ presented in God’s Word. That is the prescription for “healthy living.”

animal farm, written by george orwell, is a representation of russia after the revolution that led stalin to take over power.

in this excerpt, the central idea seems to be that the animals (a representation of society), when they believe to be working for a greater good and equality, are obedient and productive. they were convinced that, after expelling the owner (jones) from the farm, they would live in harmony and be fairly treated.

as we know, the pigs become the leaders and grow more selfish and dictatorial with time. in the end, they look and act in a way so similar to humans that it is impossible to tell the difference. the ideals of equality are shattered, and the farm turns out to be worse than it was before. the animals are manipulated with false propaganda and forced to work in order to enrich the pigs.
