Deu 28:20 "The LORD will send on you curses, confusion, and frustration in all that you undertake to do, until you are destroyed and perish quickly on account of the evil of your deeds, because you have forsaken me.
Deu 28:21 The LORD will make the pestilence stick to you until he has consumed you off the land that you are entering to take possession of it.

Jesus never said anything of the sought, and his Father said we should listen to what he's got to say.... not what Deuteronomy says.... Come unto me all of you who are suffering under the law and will give you rest for your soul..... for MY yoke is easy and MY burden is Light.
"Come to me all you who are weary and carry a heavy burden and I will give you rest. Take my yoke upon you and learn from me and you will find rest for yourselves for my yoke is upright and my burden is light."
"The man who comes to me and hears my words puts them to use."
"The man who keeps the commandments he has from me is the man who loves me and the man who loves me will be loved by my Father, I too shall love him and reveal myself to him."
"The man who loves me keeps my word and my Father will love him and we will come and dwell within him."
"The man who does not keep my word does not love me."

The author of Deuteronomy, whoever that was, said all of those things. Meanwhile, God remains typically mum.
"Come to me all you who are weary and carry a heavy burden and I will give you rest. Take my yoke upon you and learn from me and you will find rest for yourselves for my yoke is upright and my burden is light."
"The man who comes to me and hears my words puts them to use."
"The man who keeps the commandments he has from me is the man who loves me and the man who loves me will be loved by my Father, I too shall love him and reveal myself to him."
"The man who loves me keeps my word and my Father will love him and we will come and dwell within him."
"The man who does not keep my word does not love me."
I know Him and I keep His word.
First, be not like the Pharisees who pray in public, for they have their rewards from men..

Christians are forever washing God's hands of any responsibility for things that go awry. That's why "free will" was invented--to reinforce the idea that if God fails to save it isn't his fault because we "chose" to follow the nature he instilled in us. Just a variation on the "God doesn't send you to hell--you send yourself to hell" nonsense.
Why is it God's fault, uh ? He gave us a mind to make choices, we are not made as robots. One should never worry about hell when we are seeking the Lord.
