What does God's Holy Law Demand?
That's right (Mt 5:48). Gamble if you like but all will give an account (Phil 2:12).
Why not just keep the whole law and be perfect."Lev
15:31–33 In all these instructions, God was
showing the Israelites that they must have a profound reverence for holy things;
and nothing was more suited to that purpose than to bar from the tabernacle all
who were polluted by any kind of uncleanness, ceremonial as well as natural,
physical as well as spiritual. In order to mark out His people as dwelling
before Him in holiness, He required of them complete purity and didn’t allow
them to come before Him when defiled, even by involuntary or secret impurities.
And when one considers that God was training a people to live in His presence,
it becomes apparent that these rules for the maintenance of personal purity,
pointing to the necessity of purity in the heart, were neither too stringent nor
too minute." MacArthur, J., Jr. (Ed.). (1997). The MacArthur Study Bible

The Gambler ~ Kenny Rogers
The Jews want peace so that they can build their temple and resume animal sacrifices.
[Easy believism] ...God extends mercy and grace to those who do not "do justly" without fail.
