“God loves you so much that he will burn you up for not loving him back
Because He created you as a sinner because he loves you and He hates sin so he decided what was a sin and then put it inside you, and then you gotta get it out, right?
So he sent His Son and then killed Him so he could get rid of the sin that He put in you Cause He hates it”

Nevermind having a single point of failure.
