That's kinda how I see it. Thanks for telling me I am going to Hell though. People love when you say that to them.

... anything beyond that just depends on denomination.
As for the New Testament stuff, very very few Christian denominations follow a completely literal interpretation of every single thing in the bible. Even New Testament. Christianity is not based on a word for word literal interpretation of every single thing written in the bible.
