I have long since ditched this horrible logic theists sell.
"Obey me or burn in hell, your choice".
Yea, funny how no sane person would buy that from an abusive spouse if their partner wanted to leave them.
Robber, "Give me your wallet, and I'll let you live. But, choose to keep it, I'll kill you and take it anyway."
That is not a choice, that is emotional blackmail.
so have i.
we don't burn because we do not obey.
None of us can obey is the point.
So God changed the rules with Christ. it is not about obedience, but about love.
If we can love our God with all of our ability, and our neighbors as our selves we complete or accomplish all the law has to say.
