There are questions Christians ask among themselves which are really unhealthy but do the rounds anyway. None if them are helpful except as tools of oppression and control.
Among these questions are:
"Can I lose my salvation?"
No. Next!
"But what if I commit the *unforgivable sin*?"
You stopped committing that sin the moment you accepted Christ as Lord and Saviour. So still no!
Next!
"Predestination or free will?"
Pourquois pad le deux? Next!

"Is "Person of interest A" the Anti-Christ?"
Maybe, but people have said the same about every nasty person from Nero to DJT and so far, no four horsemen have rocked up so in truth, it makes no difference! Your job is to be Christlike. Do it.
Am I being persecuted?
Is your life at risk? Might someone actually kill you?
If not, then no.
Your *job* is to be *Christlike*. Go. Do that!
What about the War on Christmas
What about it? See my previous exhortations!
I know what i can control- and thats me.
I control what i consume and what i see.
I dont preach nor to i try to gather followers.
Everyone will answer for what they do in this lifetime. There is no escaping that.
The real question is - Will you be able to accept yourself as who you really are?
Thats the real reckoning with oneself.
And what i BELIEVE is the real question.
No Priest, Iman, Rabbi or Archaka need be involved if you are mentally strong enough.
@stueytheround imo a great deal of harm has been done by those trying to hasten the end end times.
Which, btw, how much more brazen can you get? Trying to speed up God?
@Beanc
"The one enthroned in Heaven laughs"
Actually *laughs* at them.
Are we in the end times?
We've been in the end times since the Ascension of Christ. So yes.
When is He coming back?
Nobody knows. Do not trust *anybody* who tells you otherwise. They're lying. Just be ready, like Jesus told you to.
All these questions, while they seem perfectly valid, are distractions from the main order of business:
Love God and love your neighbour.
⬆️⬆️ This is the answer to the WWJD question. Every time!
