    Is it wrong to buy a lottery ticket? Is the Bible against playing bingo? What if the money goes to the church? Is betting on the horses, or on sports wrong? There are no verses in the Bible that say, “Thou shalt not gamble” so does that mean that gambling

    What's in your wallet can reflect your relationship with Jesus.

    There is a commercial that asks the question “What’s in your wallet?” I think a lot can be discovered about an individual based on that question. As I thought about the answer to this question concerning my own wallet, I pondered what items found there reflected on my relationship ...read more

    Craving Evil And The Lottery

    Contributed by Greg Nance on Oct 12, 2002
    based on 50 ratings
     | 3,084 views

    Israel’s history helps us understand the dangers of sinful patterns today. Craving evil is a root that bears bad fruit. Only the cross can deliver us.

    Bill Cosby once said, “I’m proud to be an American, because an American can eat anything on the face of this earth, as long as he has two pieces of bread.” As Paul approaches eating meat offered to idols here in chapter 10, he gets a running start by pointing to ancient Israel’s history. For our ...read more

    How to pray. How God answers prayer. How we should not badger God for material needs but use prayer to open our hearts to a true dialogue with God, and why God failed to let me win the lottery despite the fact that I had prayed for it.

     | 3,865 views

    The same strategies that fail outside of God’s timing can work wonderfully within God’s timing. The patterns we see before Moses left Egypt are repeated as Moses left Midian, but they now produce success because God’s time is right.

    The Return Ticket (Exodus 4:18-31) 1. I do not like many movies, especially newer ones.
