No I'm not, but I can not believe in God simply to escape punishment. That would be downright shameful if I did.

It becomes a different view when you realize it is not YOUR believing that saves you from that fate, bur rather it is the love of the One asking you to trust in Him that gave you that escape route long before you even considered doing some "believing".

Do you mean to say that you cannot believe that was an amazing thing He did?
