I can believe you or I can believe Jesus
Matthew 5:17 "Do not think that I have come to abolish the Law or the Prophets; I have not come to abolish them but to fulfill them. This is what happens when 1)you do not read the Bible, 2) when you believe God is going to weigh your "good works" against your "bad" and judge you that way, and 3) you believe you get to work off your sins in purgatory

Jam 2:10 For whosoever shall keep the whole law, and yet offend in one [point], he is guilty of all.
Eze 18:4 Behold, all souls are mine; as the soul of the father, so also the soul of the son is mine: the soul that sinneth, it shall die.
Rom 6:23 For the wages of sin [is] death; but the gift of God [is] eternal life through Jesus Christ our Lord.
Gal 3:10 For as many as are of the works of the law are under the curse: for it is written, Cursed [is] every one that continueth not in all things which are written in the book of the law to do them.

It’s much simpler than all that:
You’re either born lucky or born unlucky.
The rest is superfluous to anything regarding salvation.

Sin in Judaism is intentional. Thus, James 2:10 (who was a Judaizier and a Paul's main adversary) simply states that even a single intentional sin is like breaking every other aspect of the Law. Murder is murder, whether you murder one or one thousand because the Law prohibits murder.
