Being forgiven by God puts us in good standing with God; however, that does not
at all absolve us of any crimes we have done here. Punishment is required
for crimes. We don't get to murder someone and not pay for that crime. Do you
think that is not the case? Should we be allowed to go on with our lives having
done all manner of evil and not be held accountable for them ...[text shortened]... g them because
you think you can, and nothing about what you do matters, here or in the
next life?
Is that a yes, or a no Kellyjay?

I disagree that the idea that we have free will is "unbiblical". That we have free will is a cornerstone of the Bible.
I would like to express my support for you, what you have said is true.

Should we try to find a way to collect the souls of convicts in bottles or some other container for further punishment guided by God but implemented by man (appropriate to the crimes, of course)?
If you could it would be wrong, and it isn't likely that he would guide you in such an enterprise, for God is a god of love and justice.

There is neither in some form of ongoing torment.

It is written Romans 6:23 "For the wages of sin is death" once you have paid that's it, and so it should be.

And then the Judgement. Not until.

Unless you refer to the second death.

That isn’t my “primary concern”.
To whatever extent you really exist, what would you say is your primary concern?

Must be that time of night when you have snuffed out your higher-order mental functions and we are now only conversing with your brainstem.
