Five Reasons Gambling Is Wrong
Five Reasons Gambling Is Wrong
John MacArthur
As a follow up to yesterday’s post, here are five bullet-point reasons why gambling is wrong:
Because it denies the reality of God’s sovereignty (by affirming the existence of luck or chance)
Because it is built on irresponsible stewardship (tempting people to throw away their money)

Because it is driven by the sin of covetousness (tempting people to give in to their greed)
Because it is built on the exploitation of others (often taking advantage of poor people who think they can gain instant wealth)
