And it says to do those 3 things where?
The largest group of Christians in the United States believe that it does.
That same large group of Christians have never read the entire Bible. They just read the spoon fed verses used to make theological points that support a particular belief or tradition.
I was an evangelical Christian for 20 years before I ever read the Bible. Once I read the Bible I realized that I had been conned. I'm more of an atheistic Calvinist nowadays. If God loves me then He loves me. If God hates me then He hates me. There isn't really much that I can do about it. If God wants to send me to hell then He can do it. If God doesn't want me in hell then He can prevent it from happening. I have no say in the matter. If God doesn't exist then I approach life the exact same way. His existence or non-existence wouldn't change the way I live. Every living human being is exactly the same. If they were proved wrong about God then they would still live the same way. These are trivial issues that cause broken families, broken friendships and even wars. It makes me shake my head and deal with it in the best way that I can. God is a big part of our lives whether He exists or not. You can't ignore it.
Just agree with people when they say you are going to hell. It stops them in their tracks.
