When our criminal politicians are happy to pay their tithes from their stolen money, my brother there is no excuse for you not to pay your own tithe from your winning

And who said betting is a sin? What's the difference between betting and buying shares in a company? In both cases, you are hoping for the success of a company/team to reap dividends and in both cases you are not guaranteed of any success

Jeremiah 7: Message Translation

8-11 “‘Get smart! Your leaders are handing you a pack of lies, and you’re swallowing them! Use your heads! Do you think you can rob and murder, have sex with the neighborhood wives, tell lies nonstop, worship the local gods, and buy every novel religious commodity on the market—and then march into this Temple, set apart for my worship, and say, “We’re safe!” thinking that the place itself gives you a license to go on with all this outrageous sacrilege? A cave full of criminals! Do you think you can turn this Temple, set apart for my worship, into something like that? Well, think again. I’ve got eyes in my head. I can see what’s going on.’”

New Living Translation

8 “‘Don’t be fooled into thinking that you will never suffer because the Temple is here. It’s a lie! 9 Do you really think you can steal, murder, commit adultery, lie, and burn incense to Baal and all those other new gods of yours, 10 and then come here and stand before me in my Temple and chant, “We are safe!”—only to go right back to all those evils again? 11 Don’t you yourselves admit that this Temple, which bears my name, has become a den of thieves? Surely I see all the evil going on there. I, the Lord, have spoken!

Can lotto/lottery proceeds please God? Many people claim to be playing the lottery or gambling so that they can give the money to the church or to some other good cause. While this may be a good motive, reality is that few use gambling winnings for godly purposes. Studies show that the vast majority of lottery winners are in an even worse financial situation a few years after winning a jackpot than they were before. Few, if any, truly give the money to a good cause. Further, God does not need our money to fund His mission in the world. Proverbs 13:11 says, “Dishonest money dwindles away, but he who gathers money little by little makes it grow.” God is sovereign and will provide for the needs of the church through honest means. Would God be honored by receiving donated drug money or money stolen in a bank robbery? Of course not. Neither does God need or want money that was “stolen” from the poor in the temptation for riches.

One of my philosophy is " there is always a wrong way to make things right, but no right way to make things wrong". Take for instance, a graduate who could not find a job for long but decided to try his luck through sports bets. If he wins and decides to invest the money. Can we say it is wrong of him to pay tithe or sow seeds with the money in church?
Sport betting are like money gotten from different individuals who without been compelled decided to try thier luck. If any among those who tried thier luck wins, he gets his/ her exact share based on the rules and regulations of the betting company. Please, some one on this platform should please tell me the difference between lottery been done in some of our religious houses in the name of raising fund and at the end, some people wins some items and sports betting. Thank you.

If punting is a sin then forex trade, stock trading and other business is a sin, you invest your money, intellect and time while hoping for returns. So how is it a sin? Did you steal?

I must Humbly say ''Betting and Gambling are like Brothers and sisters and they are terrible sins.They appear in the bible under ancient terms.
Remember ,Soldiers who crucified christ 'cast lots''= betted over his garments .The apostles cast lots on who to replace Judas.Matthias who was a replacement to Judas didn't last.
Betting is a horrible sin.Since it entered soccer,soccer hasn't been the same. Betting/Gambling a programme of Mammon. Christ says, u cannot serve God and mammon.Choose one Master.
Either u stop or u serve God.Betting makes u to do crazy things. Once it turns out that ''u kill people'' because of betting, u also play Games, then its evil.
Wow! False preachers won't tell u the truth.You may have been having confidence in ignorance because ur betting money was accepted,but truth is ''it has no records in heaven.Don't make friends with the ungodly mammon.

E ni to ba ta tete ma te ni gbe hin ni.

If you gamble or bet, it will always lead to disgrace at last.


It is a path of destruction.

The answer to your question is that gambling does not pay. God does not need the tithe or your money.

Remember, God rejected the offering of Cain.

God will reject your tithe or offering.

I totally disagree with this.
The reason "casting lots" incidents were included or told in the scriptures were to depict the value of the incidences precluded by the act.
Sports Betting is a business venture as stainless and unique as Lotteries, Stock/debenture/shares investment portfolios and the rest of the other business ventures that require forecasted income.
Pay your tithe because it is your effort, your income, your sweat and it is a way of showing appreciation for which God promises in the scriptures that he will bless you more.
NB: I pay my tithes on every ticket win and I believe it works!

a business? Indeed!! A sinful business!!! Don't u know that many christians r walking permissively and also in Ignorance.Casting lots is betting and gambling ''sebi its about odds that something would or would not happen
At the cross they cast lots about whosholud take the garments of christ inpieces ,so those who took it are the winners while d others lost.
Commercialisation of tithes n offerings r sacrifices that if care is not taking has nothing to do with salvation.y give defiled money? ''would it guarantee u anyting or entranceinto heaven.
Remeber what leviticus also says that the children of Israel must not take offerings of foreigners n offer unto God because their corruption is in their offerings.
