Bible Question: is it wrong to gamble? |
Bible Answer: What do you think? Does this verse refer to gambling? How is casting a lot different? I think that when a person "gambles,"they choose to depend upon luck rather than God. A life lived like this is indeed a "crap shoot." We are called to a life of dependency - WHO or WHAT we depend upon will determine our choices. With this in mind, WHAT is the objective of gambling? Is this objective honoring to God? Hope this helps you sort out an answer for yourself! Mommapbs |
