I know many Christians that believe gambling is bad. Why? Anything done in excess is wrong but is all gambling wrong? Just because a few soldiers gambled for garments does that make all gambling wrong? Isn’t making all gambling wrong like throwing the baby out with the bath water?
There are numerous times in Scripture that talk about the good uses of casting lots. Why do some ignore those verses?
Would not the Soldier that gambled for Christ’s clothing and won be considered a very lucky and blessed man?
If gambling is wrong then shouldn’t birthdays be wrong since John the Baptist was beheaded on one? Shouldn’t wood be bad since it is what we used to crucify Jesus on? Should not nails and hammers be banned since they too were used to kill Jesus? Why is gambling singled out as bad?
