Question

Since our expectations influence what we notice, we are more likely to perceive what we expect to perceive which explains the phenomenon of the self-fulfilling prophecy.
True
False

Answer 1

True

Answer 2

FALSE! THE HOLY SCRIPTURES WERE WRITTEN THOUSANDS OF YEARS AGO BY HOLY MEN AS THEY WERE MOVED BY HOLY SPIRIT. THERE IS NO WAY THAT MAN CAN PREDICT THE FUTURE. ONLY THE MIND OF A SUPERIOR BEING INSPRING THESE WRITINGS CAB ANSWER THE EXISTANCE OF THEM. THE FULFILLMENT OF THEM IS PROOF OF THERE EXISTANCE. OUR ABILITY TO ACCEPT THE TRUTH IS WHAT IS IN QUESTION. WHEN THE SCRIPTURES CALL FOR US TO REPENT FROM OUR SINFUL WAYS TO LIVE IN A WAY THAT HAS BEEN DICTATED TO US FROM THE BIBLE WE START LOOKING FOR WAYS TO DISPROVE IT. MAN DOES NOT WANT TO LET GO OF HIS SINS. HE WANTS TO HOLD ON TO SIN, AND STILL BELIEVE THAT HE HAS SALVATION. THE PROPHESIES OF THE BIBLE THAT ARE BEING FULFILLED IN OUR EVERYDAY LIVES ARE NOT A SIMPLE PHENOMENON, THERE A FACT IN POINT THAT THERE IS A CREATOR & HE IS WARNING US THAT OUT TIME IS NOW FOR SALVATION. TO SEEK THAT SALVATION YOU MUST FIND THE HOUSE OF YAHWEH, LOCATED IN ABILENE, PASTORED BY YISRAYUL HAWKINS. CHECK IT OUT BY CALLING 325-676-9494. ASK AT ABEL, & THAT WILL SETTLE THE MATTER!!!

and in history
when we look at what happens we tend to look not at what is, but what we are ...
