"Well if you break one of the commandments you are judged as breaking them all .... so if you have already broken one..you will be in DEEP trouble on judgement day."

If you are right and I am among the elect then I am not really responsible for my decisions and breaking any or all of the commandments is of no consequence. If I'm not among the elect then no amount of good behavior is sufficient. That being said I can go out and oppress half of Switzerland and have nothing to worry about because it wont change a thing. If I am right then I can choose to answer the call to salvation and act accordingly.

Nice try , but a misstatement of reformed doctrine :)

There you go, that was carnal, unregenerate Israel's attitude too. Might want to read how that worked out for them.
