Subject: LUCK - Satanic or Divine |
Bible Note: IMHO, it depends on how you view “luck”. If a Christian sees luck as a force that can be manipulated by talismans, charms or behavior, then it is a false god. However, if it is seen as the random chance of something happening to a random person, then it is just acknowledging life’s flow. For example, If I and my neighbor (both Christians) have old worn out cars and I have quite a few breakdowns, and he has very few. Is this a sign that he is more blessed by God than I? Is this some mystical force of luck taking care of him? No, this is just an example of random events of life which neither Christian or non-believer is exempt. If I say “boy I sure have been unlucky with this car”, I am not in any way minimizing the power of God or raising the concept of luck to the level of false god. |
