There is no more selective reasoning than that of a Christian who believes that god will ultimately act in their interests. In believing this, one must ignore:
the flood,
the conquest of Canaan,
the fall of Satan and a third of the angels,
the casting down of Satan to Earth,
Moses' banishment from the promised land,
and countless other things.
If the god of the bible does exist, he certainly isn't bound to his alleged word or any "promises", and certainly doesn't hold human beings in general with any caring regard.
And, even if the god of the bible were prepared to honor some promise of eternal life, it's clear that the fulfillment of that promise would be one of insignificant and robotic repetition, praising his "holy name" forever and ever and ever.
Fun stuff!
