Of course if you want to play the game for a more creative purpose, Creative game mode, then using the commands don't count as cheating.
However I do consider it cheating if you do use them while playing on the regular mode, where mining is the only way to acquire the resources.
Agreed that's why recently , fly and fast privilege exists, allowing to have better regular(survival) game mode.
