(February 27, 2012 at 3:45 pm)Godschild Wrote: Gambling is not mentioned in the Bible, however indirectly it is looked at as sinful because it is an irresponsible way of dealing with money, it takes many losers to produce a winner. The Bible does state that a man be foolish in being irresponsible with his money, and most anything called foolish in scriptures is sinful.

Does that mean if you win you're not sinning then as you're not being foolish in that case? Smile
