No, jay-walking is not a sin.
It is breaking a law of man, not one of God's Laws (and it ain't that big a deal, anyway.)

You are correct. We should be obeying the laws of the land UNLESS it violates our God conscience....Traffic laws certainly should be followed. God has sovereignly placed kings and rulers over our respective lands..we are to be in compliance as unto God.
Romans 13:1-7 states: "Everyone must submit himself to the governing authorities, for there is no authority except that which God has established. The authorities that exist have been established by God.

You have to ask yourself the reasons behind the law of the land. What was the motive for creating Laws and Commandments? KNow this and you know the answer

sinning and breaking laws are two different matters, Christians believe both should be followed, a sin is breaking one of God's commandments and i do not believe God said thou shalt not jay walk

Yes, it is, sometimes I wish it was a law for people who jay walk on someone else believes so easy,
For give me for my trespass
and for give them who trespass agents me, and lead me not into temptation, but deliver me from all evil.
rules of the good book, are not practiced, but are forgotten. Or just not considered due to no God.

Jay-Walking is one of the greater sins one can commit.
Worst than murder, lying, stealing and adultry combined.
JayWalking? Straight to hell!
