It could end tomorrow, in 7 days, in 14 days, in a year, 5 years, 50 years or whatever time. Never believe that the end is near. You can even falsely believe that you will never die. What is the Jesus Christ thinking here? It?s like comparing 2 people you know. Which one acts more like good faith. Think about which one steals less, gives more, teaches better, less violent, more peaceful, doesn?t sacrifice animals in blood or whatever else. You can think that some part of Jesus exists in a real man on earth that you might talk to or communicate with. Nobody is perfect, that makes things difficult. Anyway, you could even be talking when nobody is around and Jesus hears you. Prepare to feel better, not worse. They might be skeptical. Some think they can?t learn something and that is too difficult. All these human societies are about learning something. You can see buildings in North America saying quotes that Helen Keller said. She was even deaf and blind, so how did she become a teacher of some kind. These questions are difficult to answer, maybe Helen Keller had more faith.
