For a token or sometimes a fortune, you may be asked to predict the outcome of a sport game or an election for instance. For every right prediction, you get a 'windfall' of compensation; for a wrong one however, consider your initial betting capital gone. How should a believer view this gaming system? Is it right for a believer to participate in betting or play a game of chance?

It is Emphatically wrong and it also is a strategy by seducing spirits of WASTE to lure youth into a concept of thinking that FAST GAIN is SURE GAIN, thereby they squander their seed (time, money, mind) rather than invest it.... It is like betting is a silent tool by the devil to ensure that the youths pursue what should pursue them(Seek ye first the kingdom of God and all these things(MONEY,TIME,HIGHER MINDSETS) Shall be added to you. The trick is this: the same devil encourages them after a loss by letting them believe that if they can PUT in more they will gain MUCH MORE and all the losses will be recovered in one BIG SWEEP, This is simply a LIE and as believers we must warn others against such QUICK GET RICH SCHEME, tho some claim submitting to the financial structure and system as set by God in the Church is BORING and a LONG TIRING JOURNEY: Tithe, Partnership, Seed and other Givings....

But they forget that they have Paid their tithe to the devil through theses betting schemes, some have even sown seeds to learn more tricks of how to beat the sports bettings sites while some choose to pay partnership to someone who claims to be a GURU in such things and they hope to get their commission from his winnings... but all these are vanities. The bible wants us to work with out hands and put our minds to work and obey the financial principles of God and then we will watch blessing flow into every area of our Lives.

Quick an interesting review from the person who commented before me....

Hope the other viewers will be able to understand your words... seems they seem to be more grammatical rather than simple
