Western Christians: if you were born in the Middle East would you still be a Christian?
Most of the people in the West are, while most people in the Middle East are not. Would you be one of the few who grew up being told that Islam was true, but rejected it for Christianity, or would you be one of the vast majority who believed what they were taught as a child? Probability says that you wouldn't, but do you think that you would beat the odds? If not, are you okay with knowing that your salvation is largely a result of luck and geography?

When Jesus returns, he may do so in the middle east. He said that his sheep will hear his voice and we will. We will know that it is him. And we will also recognize the false prophet as well. It is call "discernment of spirits". I don't understand you statement about destroying the cross. He will not do that. I think only Satan will want to do that, since it is a sign of Jesus' triumph over Satan.

I probably wouldn't be. There's a lot of people who don't embrace the truth because they don't know where to find it. And I don't think God will hold them accountable for it.
