Because the bible god is a jealous entity that hates competition. Take for example in his ten commandments, he says "thou shall not kill", but the same fellow killed more people, both innocent and guilty, than his nemesis the devil. In the new testament, his boy who is also him, Jesus, tells people to love and forgive their enemies, but Yahweh plans to torture his own enemies forever because he doesn't want to be outdone by the tyrants of the world. And to answer your question, he resists the proud because he thinks everyone should kiss his ass instead. Hence, "you shall worship no other god beside me". |

ReacherSaidNoth:To you ,that may be killing but to God, it's just change of location. Secondly, morality and justice stem from God . But what is atheism built on ? |

Jashub:Atheism is not a belief system. Since morality and justice stem from Yahweh of Israel, that means slavery, genocide, rape, theft and all things like that are good as long as he commands them then? 1 Like |

ReacherSaidNoth:The lack of belief is also a belief system oga. Secondly, rape ,theft and all the other misdeeds are man-made concepts created by men like you and me to satisfy our own wickedness, not God's. |

Jashub:What is theism built on? No cause has killed more people than religion. Numbers 31:13-18 Finish your job: kill all the boys. Kill every woman who has slept with a man. The younger women who are virgins you can keep alive for yourselves. |

Jashub:Since you don’t believe in satan, that’s also a belief system. Who was giving orders here? 1 SAMUEL 15:3 KJ21 Now go and smite Amalek and utterly destroy all that they have, and spare them not; but slay both man and woman, infant and suckling, ox and sheep, camel and ass.’” |

Maynmann:It's on record that Stalin and Mao (atheists) have killed more people than any known religion in history. |
Re: Why Do God Resist The Proud? by Maynmann: 9:17am On Jun 25, 2023 |
Jashub:Stalin and mao didn’t kill because of atheism, and secondly bring out the results of their death, let’s conpare it with the 30 years war of Christianity, then we move to muslims jihad. |

Jashub:Where in your screenshot did he kill because of “atheism”. What did this people do? Who was giving orders here? 1 SAMUEL 15:3 KJ21 Now go and smite Amalek and utterly destroy all that they have, and spare them not; but slay both man and woman, infant and suckling, ox and sheep, camel and ass.’”

13sense: Because God wants all men to be equal no class or discrimination but prideful people love hinging on something just to look down on their fellowman. |

13sense:The Proud are ruled by their egoes/will, something all who wish to follow God are meant to bring under submission of God's very own Will and Law, so, it isn't possible for the proud to be attracted to God. The proud are however attracted to religious systems as those allow them continue flexing their egos/will even as they pretend to abide by God's Law.. |

Maynmann: He did not say they killed because of atheism but that they killed more than religion did. |
Re: Why Do God Resist The Proud? by Maynmann: 6:24pm On Jun 26, 2023 |
vdestro:Since we are comparing them together, he should bring an atheistic cause that killed people than religion. Do you know hitler even killed atheists? |
Re: Why Do God Resist The Proud? by vdestro: 6:27pm On Jun 26, 2023 |
Maynmann: We have already finished conparing. |
