God, Lord, The Almighty- Powerful to do everything. Some kind of image, which gave us in the Thora (The first 5 books of the Old Testament) the 613 laws (according to the Jews myth).
A lot of people in the time of the 2nd Temple and the Christians later told that we have the option to choose- we, human. Can decide what we will do in this life- follow the ways of God- or sin? We have freedom. And here is the question of this essay:
GOD- FREEDOM OR SALVERY?

Interview 1:
A (Interviewer): Hello B. I want to ask you some questions about you, religion and god.

A: What do you mean by saying: “take any risks”?

A: Where is the risk?
B: If I won’t keep his laws- and he exists he’ll punish me.
A: You mean you’re afraid?
B: yes.
