First, THERE IS, AWAYS WAS AND WILL ONLY BE ONE GOD, and each of of us is required to choose and the choice is completely personal, you are either for GOD or against GOD(anything other than GOD is against GOD). You have the Freedom and the Consequences to chose GOD or Not god, the is the Freedom that The MASTER OF THE UNIVERSE has given each of us.
Second, what it means to choose: when we do as GOD has said to do (Find Laws, Explanations and Teachings in Genesis, Exodus, Leviticus and Deuteronomy--they do not change,) we are for GOD, or we are against GOD by doing anything else.
All that follows from here is evidence of support for the choice You must make, NOW before the chance to change is gone.
Deuteronomy 30:15 See, I have set before thee this day life and good, and death and evil, [Here we have repeated in various styles, return unto Hashe'm; follow HIS LAW; with all of your heart; with all of your soul;]
Deuteronomy 30:
2) and shalt return unto the LORD thy God, and hearken to His voice according to all that I command thee this day, you and your children with all your heart, and with all your soul;
8) And you shalt return and hearken to the voice of the LORD, and do all His commandments which I command you this day.
10) if you will hearken to the voice of the LORD your God, to keep His commandments and His statutes which are written in this book of the law; if thou turn unto the LORD thy God with all thy heart, and with all thy soul.
15) See, I have set before you this day life and good, and death and evil,16 in that I command you this day to love the LORD your God, to walk in His ways, and to keep His commandments and His statutes and His ordinances; then you will live and multiply, and the LORD your God shall bless you in the land whither you goest in to possess it.
19) I call heaven and earth to witness against you this day, that I have set before thee life and death, the blessing and the curse; therefore choose life, that thou mayest live, thou and thy seed; 20) to love the LORD thy God, to hearken to His voice, and to cleave unto Him; for that is thy life, and the length of thy days; that thou mayest dwell in the land which the LORD swore unto thy fathers, to Abraham, to Isaac, and to Jacob, to give them.
Isaiah 3:10 Say ye of the righteous, that it shall be well with him; for they shall eat the fruit of their doings. 11 Woe unto the wicked! it shall be ill with him; for the work of his hands shall be done to him.
Isaiah 13:9 Behold, the day of the LORD cometh, cruel, and full of wrath and fierce anger; to make the earth a desolation, and to destroy the sinners thereof out of it, 10 For the stars of heaven and the constellations thereof shall not give their light; the sun shall be darkened in his going forth, and the moon shall not cause her light to shine 11 And I will visit upon the world their evil, and upon the wicked their iniquity; and I will cause the arrogancy of the proud to cease, and will lay low the haughtiness of the tyrants.
Ezekiel 9:4 And the LORD said unto him: 'Go through the midst of the city, through the midst of Jerusalem, and set a mark upon the foreheads of the men that sigh and that cry for all the abominations that are done in the midst thereof.' 5 And to the others He said in my hearing: 'Go ye through the city after him, and smite; let not your eye spare, neither have ye pity; 6 slay utterly the old man, the young man and the maiden, and little children and women; but come not near any man upon whom is the mark; and begin at My sanctuary.' Then they began at the elders that were before the house. 7 And He said unto them: 'Defile the house, and fill the courts with the slain; go ye forth.' And they went forth, and smote in the city. 8 And it came to pass, while they were smiting, and I was left, that I fell upon my face, and cried, and said: 'Ah Lord GOD! wilt Thou destroy all the residue of Israel in Thy pouring out of Thy fury upon Jerusalem?' 9 Then said He unto me: 'The iniquity of the house of Israel and Judah is exceeding great, and the land is full of blood, and the city full of wresting of judgment; for they say: The LORD hath forsaken the land, and the LORD seeth not. 10 And as for Me also, Mine eye shall not spare, neither will I have pity, but I will bring their way upon their head.'
Ezekiel 18:23 Have I any pleasure at all that the wicked should die? saith the Lord GOD; and not rather that he should return from his ways, and live?
Jeremiah 4:1 If thou wilt return, O Israel, saith the LORD, yea, return unto Me; and if thou wilt put away thy detestable things out of My sight, and wilt not waver; 2 And wilt swear: 'As the LORD liveth' in truth, in justice, and in righteousness; then shall the nations bless themselves by Him, and in Him shall they glory. {S}
Jeremiah 5:1 Run ye to and fro through the streets of Jerusalem, and see now, and know, and seek in the broad places thereof, if ye can find a man, if there be any that doeth justly, that seeketh truth; and I will pardon her.
Jeremiah 6: 16 Thus saith the LORD: stand ye in the ways and see, and ask for the old paths, where is the good way, and walk therein, and ye shall find rest for your souls. But they said: 'We will not walk therein.' 17 And I set watchmen over you: 'Attend to the sound of the horn', but they said: 'We will not attend.' 18 Therefore hear, ye nations, and know, O congregation, what is against them. 19 Hear, O earth: behold, I will bring evil upon this people, even the fruit of their thoughts, because they have not attended unto My words, and as for My teaching, they have rejected it.
Jeremiah 7:3 Thus saith the LORD of hosts, the God of Israel: Amend your ways and your doings, and I will cause you to dwell in this place. 4 Trust ye not in lying words, saying: 'The temple of the LORD, the temple of the LORD, the temple of the LORD, are these.' 5 Nay, but if ye thoroughly amend your ways and your doings; if ye thoroughly execute justice between a man and his neighbour; 6 if ye oppress not the stranger, the fatherless, and the widow, and shed not innocent blood in this place, neither walk after other gods to your hurt; 7 then will I cause you to dwell in this place, in the land that I gave to your fathers, for ever and ever.
Jeremiah 8:10 Therefore will I give their wives unto others, and their fields to them that shall possess them; for from the least even unto the greatest every one is greedy for gain, from the prophet even unto the priest every one dealeth falsely. 11 And they have healed the hurt of the daughter of My people lightly, saying: 'Peace, peace', when there is no peace. 12 They shall be put to shame because they have committed abomination; yea, they are not at all ashamed, neither know they how to blush; therefore shall they fall among them that fall, in the time of their visitation they shall stumble, saith the LORD. {P}
Jeremiah 9:23 But let him that glorieth glory in this, that he understandeth, and knoweth Me, that I am the LORD who exercise mercy, justice, and righteousness, in the earth; for in these things I delight, saith the LORD. {S}
Jeremiah 17: 5 Thus saith the LORD: Cursed is the man that trusteth in man, and maketh flesh his arm, and whose heart departeth from the LORD. 6 For he shall be like a tamarisk in the desert, and shall not see when good cometh; but shall inhabit the parched places in the wilderness, a salt land and not inhabited. 7 Blessed is the man that trusteth in the LORD, and whose trust the LORD is.
Jeremiah 17:10 I the LORD search the heart, I try the reins, even to give every man according to his ways, according to the fruit of his doings.

The Torah (Five books of Moses --Leviticus 26:46 These are the statutes and ordinances and laws, which the LORD made between Him and the children of Israel in mount Sinai by the hand of Moses.) and
The Tanakh (Torah, Prophets and Writings) contain the LAW, GOD'S COMPLAINT AGAINST MAN and HOW TO RETURN to RIGHTEOUSNESS and the history giving evidence of the relationship between the ALMIGHTY and man.
You can change your life, your soul and by your change, maybe others you know and those you do not, will choose to change their life. FIRST YOU MUST SEEK THE ONLY LIVING GOD, The GOD of Abraham, Isaac and Jacob, Creator of the Heavens and the Earth, there is no other help or Salvation.
