Do you believe this What you are is revealed by what you do.And what you do reveals what you truly believe?

Update:

and if so do you believe it has to do with the conditon of our heart,for some people put on fake masks and then do things behind closed doors so where would you say their heart conditon is and are they really revealed by what they do? Actions to me have always spoken ouder then words and I look for what a person says and if they do it they are a person of their word if not they blew ther integrity I cannot stand for someone to tell me one thing and do something else

    It can, however we often do not act in accord with what we believe and who we are in Christ because of our sin nature.

    it can be, and it can not be. who you are can be decieving to some people. there are many people in the world that have a strong relationship with God and are normally doing the right thing for themselves and for others.so, in a metaphoric type of way, this person has a wonderful inside that is full of light and happiness.but their outside appearance, is not so beautiful. maybe they are a little plump, or they have a huge nose, or they are horribly mis treated at their houses and their family members are constantly critisizing them, well all that negativity can result in bad behaviors. they could start getting in trouble in school, never paying attention, always drawing or talking and laughing or just simply sleeping. well that can make the person look terrible, they could be seen as a awful person who apparantly does not mind being in trouble. but see that is not true because they love God and they do not want to be in trouble but they cannot help feeling depressed seen as they never hear nice words in their homes. what I like to say is " it takes an angel to see through the outside appearances and into their hearts" so no, who you are does not always reveal what you believe by what you do.

    No. I believe what you do represents what you are and believe in the context of the opportunity you have available. This may not afford you much chance of revealing you full nature.

    um mm sometimes what people reveal are not really what they are. Pretend to love children yet secretly abuse them, or goes to church every week yet loves to gamble away the household budget, or works very hard at work but is a dancer at night lol - just a few examples.

    To an extent. Sometimes, circumstances or the actions of others leave us with nothing but bad choices.
