The creed of a Fool -- There is no God, no Judge, no authority, no Lawgiver or Ruler of the affairs of men. Man is god, and no one will call me into account for my sinfulness and depravity. I know more about life and how to run my life than some "God" no one has ever seen. I have the authority over my own life, not some "God". My god is myself.
The atheist is like a crazy man that has escaped from the loony bin and is walking through the halls of a courthouse saying to himself over and over, "There is no judge, there are no policemen, there is no sheriff, there is no jail or prison, there are no laws I have to follow, I cannot be held accountable for these laws that some "man" has written to try to make me feel guilty. But, OH YES HE WILL!
The atheist rejects God mainly because he loves his sins and hates purity. The atheist knows there is a quarrel between him and the Creator, for he has broken the Creator's moral Law all of his life, and his conscience accuses him of it. The atheist has become the pure enemy of his Maker, and a man will never trust his Enemy.
I hear atheists quite often using God and Jesus Christ as curse words, and when challenged, they cannot explain why they do it. Their inward evil nature and spirit of disobedience within has an involuntary reflex to blaspheme the Most High God and His dear Son's name. The atheist enjoys the physical and mental health, sunshine, water, food and oxygen that the Creator provides him every day, and at the same time he spites and hates that same merciful God all the day long. I challenge every atheist to go just one week without blaspheming God or Jesus in their speech. Now remember - Jesus still saves, and Sin always enslaves.
The atheist despises God, because God will not let the atheist do the evil that he loves to do.
The atheist wants to have good health so he can enjoy his sins for as many years as he can; he wants to be happy and healthy in his depravity and lust; he wants live like a devil and then die like a dog; he wants to enjoy his sinful appetites and yet not be damned for them in Eternity. The main reason that atheists and religionists will not have Christ Jesus, for He interferes with their first love, sin, and abases their chief god - self.
The atheist says, "I would rather die in my sins and burn in Hell forever than give up my sins and honor Christ by trusting Him." The atheist hates God, mainly because God is so good, and the atheist loves immorality. The atheist adores himself and loves his sins; he is greedy of gain; he despises wisdom and instruction and his own soul; he walks in the ways of darkness, rejoices to do evil, and delights in the frowardness of the wicked. The atheist is stubbornly resistant to moral influence and purity; they are persistently impenitent and insanely hate their soul's only hope, Christ Jesus Himself.
But God won't do that, God will not change to meet the atheist's vile tastes and desires for his sins. So, the rebel atheist hates God in his thoughts, and says, "I cannot tolerate a "God" like that, and then he laughs and mocks the man that does; he tries to quiet his conscience, and keep the little sense he still has within his little brain without losing his mind. The atheists chooses to trust his own carnal reasoning, and steer his own course out into the darkness of sin.
The atheist is a self-made man, and self-exalting, just like Satan. The atheist is ungodly, that means to live out this life without any regard to your Creator, to live from day to day without any love to God, or fear of God, or faith in God. This is the atheistic way. Most religionists that go to a church building regularly live the same way all through every week. The atheist is a worker of iniquity - that means he works hard to enjoy his sins, he plans and designs for sinning, he practices sin, and takes much pleasure in it.
The atheist thinks a man is wisest when he forgets there is a Creator, and lives according to his own thoughts and lusts. This is the atheist's creed - trust in yourself, live without God, love immorality, trust in your wealth, do God no service, trust in your brains, believe in science and technology, trust in man's progress, forget there is a God, reject Christ and use His name as a cuss word, but most of all - enjoy your sins, but be safe and responsible while doing it. *Proverbs 12:15*
