Mark,

For the most part your correct, that is what I meant.

<<<The reality is that I dont think that is remotely how God feels or works. the concept of god threatening someone is very foreign to me.>>>

God isn't like a man in that He threatens but he does forewarn and that's for our benefit. Cain was told that sin was at the door if he maintained his wrong attitude, the result being he got more bitter and slew his brother Able. Most people still disdain the counsel of the Almighty.

< I would rather go ahead with good intentions and good works(when possible) and hope for the best, then kowtow to an angry and threatening god.>>>>

Why? To what purpose? What will be your end result if I have interpreted the scriptures correctly and you refused to listen? Is it worth it?

Chris
