very good point. Our deeds do reflect what is in our heart. There are verses in the bible that explain this in the context of "faith and actions". I believe that if one truly believed, it would reflect in one's actions. Here's my analogy: say that during the next world war, the news stated that if you walked outside at anytime, you would be engulfed by bio-chemical agents. If you truly believed this, would your actions reflect this? Would you go outside? No. Just like this, I believe that if you truly believed in something, your actions would most definitely reflect it.


James 2:17
In the same way, faith by itself, if it is not accompanied by action, is dead.

James 2:22
You see that his faith and his actions were working together, and his faith was made complete by what he did.
