Nope, he will only hold us accountable for what we know. And there isn't really anything about choosing other religions over Christianity. God gave us instructions at the beginning, and then men made up religions.
Wesley,
The bible was written by mortal men. Hence the names of the chapters...and subject to the prejudices and experiences of the person/s who wrote it. Notice that none of the chapters are called god. If god was skilled enough to call this world into being...don't you think he would be able to write the bible himself? Why did he need John and Paul and Leviticus, et. al, to be his mouth-pieces? HE is all powerful. Allegedly. HE knows every sparrow that falls. Allegedly. HE can't write a book?
