Stated another way, overall perceptions become our reality, even if we are wrong, or in some cases, even if we know better.
Example: Most of us now know that Biden never got 81,000,000 valid votes, the most of any presidential candidate ever, but the perception, was put out there by the Deep State and their controlled media. We saw that somehow overnight while the votes were stopped being counted in strategic City locations, and then resumed and Biden was suddenly ahead and went on to gaina victory in each of these locations.
Another example: our theologians in the eighteenth century began to buy into a new brand of eschatology that has been in my opinion detrimental to the cause of Christ in the last 50 years as knowledge has greatly increased in our world. This increase in knowledge is prophesied in Daniel, but our teachings bring to this world fodder for skepticism. This I would think is especially true when it is not Gods truth, for only God’s truth brings Holy Spirit conviction, without which, there will be added fuel for evil. Scoffers over time have increasingly come out against anything Christian, including Scripture due possibly in part to this very teaching.
So then, if what we believe is the driver of actions, then just what are the actions that we should expect to occur as a result of the (belief, teaching or understanding propagated) first, by the world: that there really are no absolutes. Every man’s truth is correct.
Would this lead to an explosion of sin and its effects on society? Would we be seeing a post Christian era? Would we see criminals let loose and political opponents locked up? Would we see babies killed and turtles and certain Animals protected? Would we see cattle being destroyed and illegal fentanyl being allowed over open borders? Would we be seeing prayer to the God of the Bible being banned, and city streets being closed down three times a day for prayers to Allah? Would we be seeing criminals allowed to openly steal up to $1000 in merchandise and men who stand for upholding our Constitution sentenced to prison time. Would we see legal citizens in need of a passport in order to exit and reenter the country, and then require no ID to illegally cross the border or to vote in elections?
On the religious front: would we see scoffers as a result of being told (that is, everyone, who is living today) that Jesus could return at any moment, and that for their entire Christian life within certain denominations. Would we expect to see some of these Christians adopt a different thinking? Would we expect to see most in the world (unbelievers) become scoffers when Jesus coming is mentioned?
Beliefs do perhaps drive actions, but Beliefs can change, and that is our Hope currently at least on the world political stage. This because actions are not really working out to yield confidence in what is believed.
