Since in the beginning people have rebelled against GOD. Does it mean GOD'S commands are very hard to be followed? 
more_vert
Because we are human and we have our choices to have made, the decisions we did in our life is how God created us. Human disobeys because they want to do things on their own don't want someone to make them follow.

We humans disobey God because we do not know who God is., if we did we would not disobey him. once you are aware of who God is in your life and what he is all about disobeying him will never cross your mind. we disobey God because we feel following his commands is too heavy for us to handle, but he's burden is usually the lightest.

I want to believe that humans being imperfect beings is just the root cause of disobedience.one can't expect total obedience from an imperfect being. Even God has said there's no righteous one on Earth simply because we can't just pleased him wholly.

I don't think God's commandments are too strict but it just they way we are. We are mere mortals that are sure of abusing, sinning,and doing what we aren't allow to do. I think our first parents Adam and Eve did brought in sin into the world by disobeying God and then been cursed by God. I always want to believe that this also affected us and the whole world.

Humans just have to see how they can abstain from sin though it never easy but we could just try to make it happen and ofcourse this come with blessings.

You have a point there. The sin of our first parents dealt a big blow on humanity but thank God for Jesus who came to redeem us all.

Moreover, no man can on his or her own accord serve God faithfully, that is why we all need the holy spirit in our work with God. Remember that it is not by power or might but by my spirit says the lord.

I don't have any religion but I study religious texts and from my observation, I can deduce that we all have that sin nature in us.

Disobeying God is a universal problem and when you disobey God,then you have sinned against him.Sin means 'to miss the mark" or to fail to adhere to God"s righteous standards.The truth is we are all physical beings,therefore,sin dwell in us.We have limited natural ability to properly live up to right standards and values.The flesh is weak and the weakness of the flesh gives birth to sin.

We may have the desire to obey God but our flesh is susceptible to temptation.Like I said earlier, we are physical beings with a material constitution similar to animals.We share with animals a biochemical composition.Our life support systems of blood and breath are essentially the same.We were created from dust we are living,breathing fleshly beings,biochemical entities formed from the dust of the earth.It does not mean we have some immortal soul or some spirit encased in human flesh. We are from the dust and our physical bodies subject us to weaknesses that can lead to sin,thereby disobeying God

God in his infinity Mercy has created all human being in a unique way with act of forgetfulness and imperfections.
Human beings disobey God most times out of ignorance because most people don't know much about the teachings of the do's and don'ts of God.
The worldly things available today are so attractive,  deceptive and distracting such that we are more interested and comfortable with them such that we tend to forget God.

The desire for money is the most dangerous areas where majority of us disobey God because lots of ways people use to acquire wealth today are not the right ways, they always bride the teachings and commandments of God.
The lifestyle currently live by most people today across the globe are totally against the will of God and this is a total disobedience.

We are only but humans. That means we are imperfect beings. We always have selfish desires that we wish to fulfill. We always want things even when we don't need them. I've come to understand that as humans, many things come into play to make us a single entity. Like the Ying yang, we are parallels inside.

Inside of us, we decide what we want to manifest and often times, it is a struggle between opposites. We learn the word of God but sometimes, the other part gets the best of us.

Another thing is that, we are more aware of the ones and the things that we can see. You'll find that humans obey and fear their superiors more than they do God. That is why consistent connection with God makes it easier and we can repent as soon as we realize our sins.

God's command or commandments are never difficult to follow or to obey. But human being are created with much deficiencies or short comings to make mistakes and forgetful. The human system is designed in such a way that it easily gets used to circumstances bby adaptation. And in the same tune, the system love enjoyment notinding how and where it comes from. The consequences as at the time men want to disobey God, is just like mirage.

If we trace back the genesis of disobedience and forgetfulness down to the creation of Adam and eve, you will believe will believe with me that they both forgot the instructions given to them by God and went ahead to disobey knowing fully that there will be consequences.

I think people disobey God more because of His promise of forgiveness and because everything in the opposite side of the. Commandment looks good on surface.

Humans disobey God because they may feel that God's commandments is too burdensome to follow and that disobeying God would give them something that is better than what he will give them.

God is a merciful God. He forgives us our wrongs and offers His grace. Many people that advantage of that and do wrong knowingly and seek for forgiveness. The temptations and evils in the world seem to be so deceiving and easy to follow. The way to heaven is tiny filled with ups and downs but the wider path has alot of followers who enjoy and struggle less.

No, it does not mean that God's commands are too hard to be followed. People disobey God because of their own selfish desires, pride, and sinfulness. People are often tempted to pursue their own desires and interests instead of living according to God’s will and commands. This kind of disobedience is a sinful act, and it goes against the nature of God and His perfect plan for humanity.

The existence of human beings who refuse to follow God's commands can be seen in various ways. For example, many people will disobey a Sun God by living off starches and vegetables. Others may choose to avoid war and violence, because they know it will lead to their own destruction. There also may be people who rebel against rules or regulations set by others, in order to have their own unique way of life.

The reason why human beings disobey God is a complex and multifaceted issue that has been debated by theologians and scholars for centuries. Some believe that it is due to the fallibility and weakness of human nature, while others argue that it is a result of free will and the ability to make choices.

The idea that people have rebelled against God or have difficulty following God's commands is a recurring theme in various religious and theological traditions. It is not necessarily an indication that God's commands are inherently hard to follow, but rather it can be attributed to several factors:

1. **Free Will:** Many religious traditions believe in the concept of free will, which means that humans have the capacity to make choices, including choices that may go against God's commands. Free will is seen as a gift from God that allows for genuine moral and spiritual growth, but it also means that people have the ability to make both good and bad choices.

2. **Human Imperfection:** According to many religious beliefs, humans are considered imperfect and fallible beings. They are prone to making mistakes, succumbing to temptations, and acting in ways that are contrary to God's commands. This human imperfection can make it challenging to consistently follow God's guidance.

3. **Moral and Ethical Challenges:** God's commands often involve moral and ethical standards that are intended to guide human behavior in a positive and righteous direction. However, living up to these standards can be difficult in a world with many moral and ethical challenges, and people may struggle to adhere to them.

4. **Spiritual Growth and Redemption:** Some religious traditions view human rebellion and shortcomings as opportunities for growth and redemption. It is through recognizing our failings and seeking forgiveness that individuals can experience spiritual transformation and draw closer to God.

It's important to note that the perceived difficulty in following God's commands may vary among individuals and religious traditions. While some may find certain commandments or ethical guidelines challenging, others may embrace and successfully adhere to them. Additionally, interpretations of God's commands can differ among religious denominations and individuals, leading to varying levels of adherence and understanding.

In many religious traditions, the focus is not solely on the difficulty of following God's commands but also on the capacity for forgiveness, grace, and the possibility of redemption for those who seek to return to a righteous path.

From the point of biblical accounts, the first disobedience of man to God was in the Garden of Eden when Eve ate the forbidden fruit in the center of the garden. That was the origin of disobedience.

Furthermore, God has given men a lot of choices in life such that their destiny is in their hands. 

Jacob once admonished the children of Israel to choose which one they would serve but for him, he would serve the Lord God of Israel. That gives credence to the choice that man has.

The seeming triumph of evil over good also makes people yo think that there's no need to obey God's commandments forgetting that our God is long-suffering. These are some of the reasons people disobey God.
