Myth, 118

 ~ Perception Is Reality ~

 

Myth  ~  Perception is reality!  This is expressed in many ways.

 

Reality  ~  Truth is truth regardless of what you perceive.  A desert traveler may perceive an oasis ahead only to discover it was a mirage.  Another person may dive into what he perceives to be a deep pool of water only to hit an unseen rock below the surface resulting in becoming a paraplegic for the rest of his life. 

 

Comment  ~  The results of incorrect perception often have deadly consequences.  This is especially true in spiritual issues. 

 

Scripture  ~  Consider this twice repeated clear statement. 

“There is a way that seems right to a man, but its end is the way of death” (Proverbs 14:12).  

“There is a way that seems right to a man, but its end is the way of death” (Proverbs 16:25).

 

“Jesus said to him [Thomas], ‘I am the way, the truth, and the life.  No one comes to the Father except through Me’” (John 14:6).
