Question of the day is...

[Donibm]

What was the first act of religion?

 

And to help you out, Cain was not born yet (just incase anyone thinks it was his sacrifice).

How about satan's rebellion, worshiping Himself.

 

I don't like to call the worship of YHWH "religion."

First Act

 

Now the serpent was more subtil than any beast of the field which the LORD God had made. And he said unto the woman, Yea, hath God said, Genesis 3:1(a-c )

 

Encore

 

And the serpent said unto the woman, Ye shall not surely die: Genesis 3:4

[desi2007]

I would say adam and eve having a relationship with God.

[other one]

Gen 2:1-3
2:1 Thus the heavens and the earth were completed, and all their hosts. 2 And by the seventh day God completed His work which He had done; and He rested on the seventh day from all His work which He had done. 3 Then God blessed the seventh day and sanctified it, because in it He rested from all His work which God had created and made.
NASB
 

[Bible_Gazer]

What they could eat or not eat - obeying God's commandments

[Donibm]

Enoch,

 

I don't believe Satan ever worshipped himself.

 

And, "YHWH" does talk about religion ... in both the Hebrew and the Greek.  (see Isaiah 1:13-17 and James 1:27 - they mirror each other)

 

Good shot, but this is not it.  Religion is of man, so "spiritual beings" are not the focus.

[Donibm]

Deception and distortion.  I see where you are going with this.  But, not everything in religion is ... deceptive.

 

Good shot, but we are looking for the first ACT of religion.

Blessings Don....

     Oddest thing I ever heard..."act of religion'',very odd..........................Praise & Glory to God,it is a glorious day!

                                                                                                       With love-in Christ,Kwik

[Donibm]

Oh, so close.

 

Yes, it does involve Adam AND Eve (not Satan, not God, and not a thing) ... but not quiet.

 

Remember, its an ACT of religion.

 

I have a relationship with my wife, but it's not an "act," it's a ... relationship.  An act is something very specific that we do.
