Belief and reality and noteworthy things
One is capable of choosing to believe something false, we call this self-delusion, but is also capable of falsely believing watery foundations, without intentionally sinning.
Belief, in the Greek of the bible, refers to belief, trust, as well as obedience. The antonym of belief, is disobedience.
Here, is the vitality of such, our every action is based on our view of reality. We act, as we see best, based on our beliefs. How we view the world, condemns and saves us in our actions.
