This seems to 'promote'
bad behavior
Others have said that if this is really the case, then God is handing
out a 'license to steal' and is offering eternal life regardless
of what you do after accepting the gift.
Let's suppose that you and a friend set up an
identical list of rules for your children and that you communicate
unconditional love to your daughter. If she breaks one of your rules,
you discipline her lovingly, all the while assuring her of your
love. She's never even considered the possibility that breaking
one of your rules could get her expelled from the family.
