I guess that still doesn't make sense to me. If they don't die, they don't have to make the choice. It was emotional blackmail.

Essentially yes, but it was showing them their choices had consequences.

It probably shouldn’t make sense to non cult people, although the ending shows they were right.

Leonard also says once the four of them are dead and they didn’t make their choice it would be too late to stop it.

However >!Eric killed himself, which Leonard said wouldn’t be enough, and everything stops. This suggests he was lying, or at least adding his own details.!<

I think Eric's partner killed him. He didn't kill himself.

It happens offscreen, but Eric believed and said he would do it as Andrew was the non believer.

Also, either way it was still after all the horsemen were dead, so it shouldn’t have worked but it seems like it did, so Leonard was also still lying about that.
