Hold on a second. Did you miss the part where it referred to unbelief as 'wickedness'? ...continue

By the way the church is a NT community of believers, it has nothing to do with a place, the church meets in a building just like the Jews met in a building called the Temple or synagogue (which is defined a bringing together of).
So...don't marry people of other religions or they will interfere with you attempts to indoctrinate the kids. If god were real, it wouldn't matter if the parents brainwashed the kid from an early age or not; it would become apparent that god was real sooner or later. If god values belief over morals, then he might have a problem. If he valuse morals over belief, then he shouldn't care if people believe in him or not. He really shouldn't have even mentioned heaven or hell anyway. They bring up so many problems!
