I came to a similar realization late into my Christian life. This is most likely the reason so many pick and choose what they read out of the bible. They want to believe in the more loving, forgiving 'New Testament' God that'll let you in for being a good person. Not the brutal OT God that has no problem smiting you for speaking out against him and not having to defend himself because he's the creator of all things.
But if hell is the only reason one worships God then it's not faith nor does it have anything to do with faith. It's fear and that is a terrible foundation for any relationship.
