Chapter and verse please. Not some vague bollocks about salvation being important, I want the verse and chapter that tells the reader that salvation comes before everything, including God.
That's not what I was saying salvation is the beginning of the Christians life, nothing else can proceed the starting point.

Of course. It would be unreasonable to expect Christians to believe anything, without the prospect of a reward. Business is business...
The rewards are promised long before any become a Christian, Jesus himself asked us to store up treasures in heaven and not worry about the things of this life. He referred to God caring for the sparrow, how much more will He care for a believer.

You CANNOT believe your fucked up story book WITHOUT cherry picking.

Then of course, it is GC...
I believe in the absolute truth of all scripture, all is important, none can be ignored, it's a book to teach those who decide to follow Christ.

God loves those who believe and those who do not and the same goes for me, you have no choice in this matter. That puts the matter of total free will to rest.
