Send us a textIn this episode, Arnie and Fred begin a discussion of what the Bible says about gambling. We note that the Bible doesn't specifically use the word gambling. Neither does it name all sins specifically. But the Bible clearly sets forth principles that we can use to determine whether or not an activity is right or wrong - righteous or sinful. Gambling is such an activity. We begin by looking at the principle of stewardship. We are to be good, faithful and wise stewards, Jesus says. God has said that everything in the world is His, including ourselves. We discuss these things. We also talk about what is referred to as the Golden Rule, the love we are to have for others and the fact that we are to do good to them. We note the application of this principle. We move on to the principle against stealing and how that applies to gambling. We look at what we call the principle of personal industry, the work ethic that is clearly taught in the Bible. The principle against exploiting others is clearly one to be considered when discussing gambling. We include that in this episode. We complete this episode by beginning our discussion of the principle of temperance, which we will begin the next episode with. Take about 30 minutes to listen in on our discussion. Have your Bible handy so you can follow along and verify what we are saying. There is a transcription included with this Buzzsprout episode for your convenience.
