[Mark, You can dress it up in nice, fancy clothes, but the underlying idea of hell is an implicit threat. God is saying, "Do my bidding or be tortured for eternity." This makes him no better than the worst tyrant that humanity has ever produced.]

What bidding does Jesus ask for eternal life? What great task must you do to be saved? Repent and turn from your wicked ways.Simply accept Him as the Lord of your life. But you don't want to because you enjoy your sin. Your offended because your told it's wrong to do these wicked things. You are using man's standard of what is good to judge yourself. Yes you may be good by man's standard. But God will not judge you by man's standard.
