Do I break the first commandment by being atheist.?

Question

How? I don't have any god before him I just don't believe in him either.

Answer 1

i dont know why atheists think god hates them he doesnt, he loves all people. i dont know why atheists feel like they dont wanna even acknowlede god. how can you sleep at night if there is a god and yes there is,knowing one day you will meet face to face with him and wouldnt you want to say if there is a god then i will go to heaven if there isnt then it dont matter. life is precious but eternal life is far greater than life on earth. dont be a bad gambler and go for a long shot that there isnt a god,make the sure bet that in the end you know you will win the bet that there is a god.if it means anything my dad died aug 1st,and my 9 year old son had a dream of him and my dad told my son that "jesus doesnt look anything like his pictures" my son being 9 could never in a million years make that up, my dad told him something that when we heard that, my son mustve talked to my dad or his grandpa truly good luck hon .........You still have time to correct your sin of being an atheist if not then just remember at the time of your death call out jesus name and you will be saved even at the hour of your death he will not turn away his sheep that he loves so much,,,jesus jesus jesus say it now and watch what happens dont wait till the end

Answer 2

Yes, but you are quoting the wrong commandment as the First (ie, most important, greatest, wellspring of all others) Commandment.

As stated by Jesus, the First and Greatest Commandment is this:

"You shall love the Lord your God with all your heart, and all your soul, and all your mind, and all your strength." Read Matthew 22:36-40 for the whole context.

Since you obviously hold no affection at all for someone you don't believe in, you break the First Commandment.

Answer 3

It's really irrelevant. The only ones who were a party to that covenant law were the anc. Israelites.

So say you, being atheist, have no gods before God. . . well, you have placed yourself in that position.

Condemnation does not now come about by breaking these laws, but rather something else entirely:

John 3:18 He that believeth on him is not condemned: but he that believeth not is condemned already, because he hath not believed in the name of the only begotten Son of God.

.

Answer 4

Yes you do.

Edit:

You deserve an explanation:

When you put your own beliefs in Front of the lessons God has taught us, you are breaking the commandment, you shall love no other god before him.

When you put Darwin's theory (or what ever you believe in)before God , this becomes your God, your rules, your life, what you believe wholeheartedly. I understand that you don't believe in God (or God's), but you are putting your belief system ahead of what he taught us, therefore breaking the First commandment.

You should love God with all of your heart, mind and strength.

Answer 5

Why worry about breaking a commandment if you don't believe in the god who wrote them?

Answer 6

The First commandment is go forth and multiply

Answer 7

No, you should be allowed to think however you want. Who says science, logic, and reason is a bad thing? That's just stupid to claim.

Answer 8

yep.

The man or woman who rejects God sets themselves up as their own god. That is idolatry.

Answer 9

Regardless the answer is yes.

Answer 10

In all likelihood, yes.

It reads, "I am the Lord your God," to which I say, "No, you're not. You don't exist, except in the imaginations of those who read this drivel."

If you're going to break some, you might as well start with number 1.
