Why You Should Pay Your Tithes From Sport Or Lotto Winnings by Mindfido(m): 9:18am On Feb 25, 2016
"Should I pay tithes from my sport bet wins?" This is the popular question on every religious sports Forecaster's lips.
In this article I try to prove and analyze why you should.

A sports gamer usually win in two different ways - either winning a large sum of money (Millions) which happens once in a blue moon or winning thousands which might be frequent.

First Case ( Big Wins ) - of course winning big sums apart from your intelligence requires big luck, because there are so many factors that could make the result go against you but not withstanding it came favourably. This is synonymous to winning a Jackpot and you should show gratefulness (appreciation) to God by donating a certain sum of money to His course.

Second case ( Normal or Low Wins) - You knew (or guess) that something would (or would not) happen and you decided to wager on it, this is not different from an investor or businessman who knows or guess that a stock/goods will become valuable at a particular time and decided to invest in it. Since s/he will pay his tithes from this increase according to God's law, a sport forecaster should do so too.

In conclusion, if sport wagering is unholy then you have nothing to lose by paying your tithes. But if it isn't then you will be committing another offense by not paying one tenth of your increase.

Note 1: Mindfido does not promote gambling in any way as sometimes people lose money instead of  gaining. So doing it is at your own peril.

Note 2: Tithe is a christian doctrine of contributing one tenth of all your increase to your Church or worshipping center. ( Mal 3 vs 10)
