Ideal environment does not guarantee perfect performance.  After all, Adam was in Paradise when he fell!  The New Testament was not written on vacation; much of it was penned in jail.  Paul was not resting at a pleasure resort when he wrote the Epistles.  The Pilgrim’s Progress was not put together in a villa on the French Riviera.
