Idera_olu: Can Christian Trade FOREX!

Considering the similarity some have tagged to Forex trading i.e: Gambling, is it ethical for Christians to trade Forex without spinning the verses of the bible?

These may be an opportunity to educate others that want to know more.

Many thanks.

Below is what I posted to all my forex students and friends after I quitted the devil's business!!
Read on:

"To all my forex friends:
This is hard for me to do but I have to do it
By the grace of our Lord Jesus Christ I am off with forex.

Recently I have decided to amend my ways before the Lord.
And I kept asking myself what about forex? Is this really good for christians?
Then I came across this after google searching:This is somebody saying=

"Is Forex and most other financial trading wrong or sinful for Christians?
I have stopped trading Forex altogether because I have developed serious ethical problems as a Christian with it.

Most types of financial trading are a zero sum game, even a negative sum game. It produces NOTHING of value, no goods or services, and no wealth is created like in Stock Trading. The net change in total wealth among traders is zero at the end of the day (sometimes even less!) - the wealth is just SHIFTED from one trader to another! (Reallocation of wealth.)

It is far too close to gambling for me (some skill, a lot of chance), and you make gains ONLY at another's expense! Jesus said that we should love our neighbor as we love ourselves. How can you do that when you profit only at somebody else’s expense? It is a violation of Jesus’ most basic commandment for humanity. And to give to worthy causes from Forex earnings may be great, but the end never justifies the means! I personally consider Forex now essentially a form of legalized stealing and robbery. The experienced Forex trader is committed to “fleecing” those who are inexperienced!

Don’t pray and ask God to help you with your financial trading - he won’t! Don’t be deceived.

An agnostic has even said: “In Forex you’re not doing any useful work, and you’re hoping to make a lot of money from it, right? Isn’t this really like stealing from the public? You’re hoping to get a lot of money from moving currencies around, and you’re not giving the world anything in return - except moving some currencies around. I think that’s just like theft.”

Mark 8:36: For what shall it profit a man if he shall gain the whole world and lose his own soul Or what shall a man give in exchange for his soul Whosoever.
We have to please God in every areas of our lives.
Therefore I surrendered all. unto Jesus.
Bless u if you shall also surrender all to Him."

The answer is YES
But if you do what Jesus asked you to do
in the New Testament: Accept Him as your Lord and Saviour
Live righteously and be holy.
You will not go to that horrible place bible called Hade/Hell

Any cheat program you are involving as a born again christian is SIN. Remember thou shall not steal or cheat. You see all these taking survey, telling lies in the name of making dollars is SIN. stop it repent and amend your ways. The Lord will forgive you.

Satan's attempt to deceive, to steal and to destroy finally in hell fire. Repent now and accept Jesus in order for your sins to be washed by His blood.  He is the only way to heaven.

Your body not decomposing is even against what God hath commanded, Genesis 3:19 "in the sweat of thy face shalt thou eat bread, till thou return unto the ground; for out of it wast thou taken: for dust thou art, and unto dust shalt thou return" -

Ecclesiastes 12:7 says "Then shall the dust return to the earth as it was: and the spirit shall return unto God ,  and in process of time is reduced to dust, from which it was originally made; ,  you return to the ground, since from it you were taken; for dust you are and to , "

So my friends do not be deceived by the devil anymore.  Remember what he told Eve in the garden of Eden "And the serpent said to the woman, "You will surely not die, 

So if your body refused to decompose, then know surely it is not the Hand of God.

Come out of the darkness and come onto the light.
Jesus loves you, He is the true light, the way and the life.
As the prince took the step of faith today, i can assure you heaven has recorded his name in the book of life,
and has escaped the eternal condemnation of the hell fire.
My advice to you Prince – be strong, continue in the new way and God shall surely see you true. IJN
