scottyno 0 Posted February 27, 2007 Share Posted February 27, 2007 Gambling is a violation of well-established biblical principles. It is poor sportsmanship of what God provides for us. Many gamble hoping to win enough money to quit working, wanting something for nothing violates the work principle given by God. Gambling is theft by consent. Scripture teaches us that gambling leads its participants further and further from the way of God.While I will still remain on this forum I will no longer be taking part in any gambling related activities and will be withdrawing all my money from various sites immediately.

ROACHBABY 0 Posted February 27, 2007 Share Posted February 27, 2007 Jesus played poker, its in the bible. He played stud with Luke and John in Mark 4:18 and got his trip 8's sucked out on 4th st. I think that's why he changed the water into wine. He was on tilt and needed a drink. God Bless,HeyZeus Link to post Share on other sites

Livaso 0 Posted February 27, 2007 Share Posted February 27, 2007 Poker is an inherently vain game. Any form of competition can be viewed similarly since your goal is to out-do somebody else. The New Testament is very clear on its stance of merchants and debt collectors and the concept of banks. So while gambling is essentially charging people for entertainment (especially when you're the house or a skilled player in a skill game representing the house) its no different than what a singer would do. Even if entertaining someone for a price is biblically irresponsible, in the form of gambling it seems to cause specific debate. Link to post Share on other sites

silkyjonson 1 Posted February 27, 2007 Share Posted February 27, 2007 Do not invest in the stock market either. Oh and I hope you did'nt quit masturbating either, that would really suck. Oh and the bible also said this: But if this charge is true (that she wasn't a virgin on her wedding night), and evidence of the girls virginity is not found, they shall bring the girl to the entrance of her fathers house and there her townsman shall stone her to death, because she committed a crime against Israel by her unchasteness in her father's house. Thus shall you purge the evil from your midstDeuteronomy 22:20-21 NAB) Link to post Share on other sites

Thus shall you purge the evil from your midstDeuteronomy 22:20-21 NAB)"They say unto him, Master, this woman was taken in adultery, in the very act. Now Moses in the law commanded us, that such should be stoned: but what sayest thou? This they said, tempting him, that they might have to accuse him. But Jesus stooped down, and with his finger wrote on the ground, as though he heard them not. So when they continued asking him, he lifted up himself, and said unto them, He that is without sin among you, let him first cast a stone at her."-John 4:4-7 Link to post Share on other sites
