Do please feel free to show us where Paul said that his choices shouldn't have consequences.

He did say that choices that every human being makes shouldn't have the consequence of eternal torture. You might notice a slight difference between that and "my choices should not have consequences". Or, then again, you might not.

(Well, actually he didn't say "choices that every human being makes". But the Standard Evangelical Position on this, which so far as I can tell is what you're offering here, is that everyone without exception -- or, perhaps, with one or two supernaturally-enabled exceptions over the whole course of history -- makes choices that will land them in hell unless they Turn To Christ. "Nice soul you've got here. Shame if anything happened to it, eh?")
