Many Christians wonder about the morality of gambling from a biblical perspective. The Bible does not explicitly mention gambling, but it provides principles that can guide our understanding.
Scripture teaches us to be good stewards of our resources and warns against the love of money. Gambling often involves risking money that could be used for better purposes and can lead to addiction and financial hardship.
The Bible encourages contentment and trusting God for our needs rather than seeking quick wealth through chance. Christians should consider whether gambling honors God and benefits others.
While some forms of gambling might be considered harmless entertainment, the potential for harm and the underlying motives should be carefully examined according to biblical principles.
