Q: What is the Point in Deuteronomy? A: "Choice"

"Throughout the history of God’s relationship with humanity, choice has been integral.
---God chose Abraham and His descendants (Only the LORD had a delight in thy fathers to love them, and he chose their seed after them,....Deuteronomy 10:15),
---and He appeals to Israel to choose Him in return (I call heaven and earth to record this day against you, that I have set before you life and death, blessing and cursing: therefore choose life, that both thou and thy seed may live...Deuteronomy 30:19). 
---God clearly outlines the implications of choosing Him or not, so that, to borrow the apostle Paul’s words “...are without excuse” (Romans 1:20)."
