When you steal, what does that make you? A thief. When you steal from your father, you are dishonoring him. By coveting money more than God, you are commiting idolotry by loving money rather than God by doing that which is unrighteous in His sight. You are guilty of breaking God's law, His 10 Commandments by stealing, coveting, dishonoring your parents, and thus, dishonoring God, who says, "You shall have no other God's before Me." Every person is destined to die, then comes judgement. When you die, will you be innocent or guilty if God judges you by the standard of His 10 Commandments? If guilty, should he send you to heaven or hell? Sending you to hell is a requirement of God's justice, not because He doesn't love you. You have violated His law, for which there are great consequences. But God is not willing that you should persish, but that you should have everlating life.
The forgiveness that is in Jesus Christ is conditional upon "repentance toward God, and faith toward our Lord Jesus Christ" (Acts 20:21). It is a gift that God offers to everyone, but individuals must receive it by repenting and trusting in Christ, or they will remain dead in their sins. No one has biblical grounds to continue in sin, assuming that they are safe just because Jesus died on the cross. See 1 John 3:4–6.
Will you go to heaven or hell? I hope to see you in heaven one day.

Repent of your sins, what you're doing is wrong, give the money back to your father, and work for it next time. Ask God for forgiveness and never do it again. You steal money from your father and your all like "well no big deal, he won't miss it." Next thing you know, when you are older you will rob a bank.

Of the 10 commandments stealing is number 8. It is a sin.
20 years from now when you have forgotten this, it is still a sin.
We have all sinned. But Christians a going to heaven because they have repented, begged for forgiveness, and have allowed Jesus to guide in what is right and wrong.
Read, and study the handbook called the bible.

The indications seem to be that God doesn't send anyone to hell. Folks choose to go by rejecting Him and His kingdom, here and now. Ever hear of hell-on-Earth? His commandments are not arbitrary dictates, but rather instructions on how to appropriate the best for our lives, heaven on Earth......and eventually heaven.
Bottomline? No one knows for sure about any of this. We simply consider our options and make our choices. Both believing and not believing are choices; that's what free will is all about.

One of the Ten Commandments is "Thou shalt not steal." Another is "Honor thy father and thy mother."
Why do you steal it from him? Why don't you just ask him?
Is God angry with you? No. God loves you child. He hates the sin, but loves the sinner.
You know your actions are wrong. You are concerned with how God feels about you. You have the choice to ask for forgiveness and repent from those actions. God will forgive you.
Be blessed.

No. Because in a sense, Jesus died so you can rightfully steal that money. Remember, the Ten Commandments are in the Old Teststament, you don't have to go by that!

You wont go to hell for it, as long as your a christian. But it will make God angry and even though God will still love you, you will receive consequences from God.

Commandment says, "Thou shall not steal". Why not just go get a job to earn the money if you like it so much. Make you feel a lot better with yourself.

The only thing that sends you to hell is NOT having your name written in the Lamb's Book of Life. Nothing more, nothing less.
Revelation 20:15
And anyone not found written in the Book of Life was cast into the lake of fire.
