Anything you do, do it with moderation. Too much of everything is bad.

Sports betting to me is placing your money on predictable outcomes. If it turns out positive, you gain but if it turns otherwise you lose. I know that the Bible warns against the love for money or material things above God. But i find it difficult to see betting as a sin. Most youths today are into sport betting but the church is silent about whether it is a sin or not. I am saying this because I am yet to see any preacher publicly condamn sport betting.

I am into betting. Any one who will condamn betting as regards Christians believe should do so with Bible references to convince me. I am not upholding my opinion above others. I only seek to know.

Good question..

Whether it is a sin or not, Sports betting is killing Nigerians slowly but they are yet to realise it. I know a man who has become a sport betting addict. He is a liability even to himself. Borrows for betting and loses. He has no properties, no salary even though he is paid a comfortable salary. Everything goes to debts!

yeah, this is the saddest part of betting. It is addictive, no doubt about that but is it a sin to engage in sport betting? When you bet to the point you can no longer provide for yourself and even your family, then I can categorically say that such a person is not a responsible bettor

Figure of speech. I meant the day FOREX turns to sin, then sport betting will be.

Because they are both an investment.

Sport betting is a business source but highly risky ....its pure financial wisdom to invest only what you can afford to lose.

Reason why it becomes a bad venture is that most users invest so much and have high expectations, and when they lose they go extreme to find another capital to invest.

Sport betting requires strategy that fits each individual pockets...you don't have to play it every weekend or everyday..u can play it when all situation puts a team under pressure to win at all cost..

I have more to say..but I will put hand to rest.

Meanwhile ...I made close to N800,000 this year from several winnings..some times I stake on just two teams that are in a must win situations.

You must be a responsible bettor. I love your submission.

Its not absolutely spelt out in d scriptures dat its a sin but check dese scriptures....dey will enlighten more. 1Tim6:10, Eccl5:10,Heb13:5.. Be it as it may, betting is a form of gambling. I was once into it, and would pray to God dat I win...but I remember d day I prayed earnestly and God told me unequivocally that, I don't want u playing that thing... I had to stop.

Your question won't get any answers. How many Christians today will say that they are unaware that listening to secular music is a sin. Music from WizKid, Davido, Burna Boy, Nicki Minaj and the rest does not glorify good. It rather preaches the love of the world and vanity. But everyone is cool with it, they attend their concerts, dance till they get drained and still go to church on Sunday. No one will come out to condemn it.
