What choices will make to sell our soul for, to think we can wash our hands for not "being our brother's keeper", what our Creator cares the most about. That we can do God's will in people's lives and seek God's Honor, not live to please ourselves.
19 This day I call the heavens and the earth as witnesses against you that I have set before you life and death, blessings and curses. Now choose life, so that you and your children may live 20 and that you may love the Lord your God, listen to his voice, and hold fast to him. For the Lord is your life, and he will give you many years
