It is in the bible to gamble is like sinning. If it is related to greed then the Bible do not agreed to that. Gambling is a harmless fun in some instances, but it is fueled by greed. If you win something, casinos would want you to stay to gamble more. Make your money to grow more, but the truth is, you will lose everything in a snap if you do it again. Casinos only wanted your money and not about your feelings. They are the real greedy but they have an excuse to say, business is business.
When we are basing on biblical thing then its really a sin to gamble but in modern times its just really created for pure entertainment and yes it does really fueled with greed which if a certain player have weak self control you would eventually fall on this addiction and greed would really come out even more that is why casinos is really a profitable business because of these greedy people.
Whatever written in the bible everyone's has its own interpretation and if one believe it is not a sin or he is not afraid of making a sin then he can gamble freely. Besides we are matured enough and we are responsible for our actions, as believers we have law by our God and the law in the world that must be followed, and when talking about religion it's a long discussion so let's set aside that kind of topic if possible and just enjoy if you want to play and stop if it's bad for you.

Gambling is not a sin. It can become a sin however, when you lose yourself in the gambling and start to neglect yourself or the people around you.

Gambling, as long as you can control it, is just fun. The chance of winning big is what attracts everybody and makes them come back.

Which means, we can do gamble if our mindset is we will doing it just for fun only and nothing else. Because if we do gamble
then in a long run it might be the cause reason for us to become bad person to change our attitude that can be
called gambling sin.

It is not a sin to play gambling, if you do not lose all the money and do not get into debt. And when dependence on gambling is harmful not only to you, but to others, it's bad.

Is gambling OK? Don't bet it! There's not an easy or instantly obvious proof text answer to that question.

Gambling is not a sin. It is an entertainment, being able to gamble is fun to do but dont over extend that happiness because that will lead to greed and greed is the one that causes a person to commit sin

Yes, we don't see there are related with gambling games and sin of human, gambling games be made for fun and entertainment but if there are gamblers who be losing control in gambling and losing everything in gambling games, doesn't mean play gambling is sin because actually the problem is on gamblers, they can not take control their emotions and not on gambling games.

For others it is and for you it isn't. I have two thoughts for this, for those people that believes gambling is a sin, maybe they are thinking that it can lead you to bankruptcy and when you are now like that you'll think to commit crime.

It will depend on their experience with gambling, some thinks it as a drug that can destroy once life, but it will only happen without any control ,Anything that is too much and being abuse may not really result good.

Well it is not a sin if you are going to use it as an entertainment only. But if you use it as your hobby and you are so addicted to it then it is a bad news for you. Dont make it a habbit like when you're bored "Oh i will just play gambling games. Well that's bad.

Gambling is not just when you lose all your money and not get into dept. but for me gambling can lead you to be greedy and selfish that's why some people see gambling as a sin. Also, the thing is that people things that playing in casino is mafia, we don't know what's going on the underground world. Not all people are in favour if its a sin or not but one thing is for sure that gambling is sort of an entertainment to the people all around the world and it should be stay with that.

I think that it has nothing to do with sin or else. It is kinda like playing games just betting with real money however according to my religion it is a sin. Well as long as I can be happy and I dont hurt anyone else then I will still do it, If I start hurting anyone because of my hobby then Im sure that Im going to stop it

i think there is no concern of experience with sin. if a society or a religion consider gambling as sin then it do not depend on your experience, sin is sin, and if a society or religion do not consider gambling as sin then there is no need to experience or a newbie.

Sin is relative, there are a lot of sins that exists in one religion but are not there in another. So I think it is just based on your own beliefs. No one can really say it is a sin unless you are doing something bad and you are hurting someone.

Gambling is not a sin unless you really are wasting your life on it.

It depends upon the person who gambles. Just a simple situation, if you used to gamble just for fun and entertainment it is not a sin but if you are gambling in order to gain profit and the outcome was you're always losing your money that leads to you to be a broken man who do are so addicted to it that you can do bad thungs just for you to play it. It is probably a sin.

As stated it purely depends on the user involved into gambling. If he understands his situation and affordability and play accordingly then there is nothing to be a sin. When he gamble beyond limits as well gives consideration as an earning source than just for fun or entertainment makes it more addictive and this gets termed as sin.

Yeah, this problem we need to look at in different aspects to analyze. What is sin? To put it simply, if we feel our actions are shameful and hurt others, it is sinful. So if someone gambling and hurting others, gambling would be a sin but if we are gambling for fun and relaxation, gambling will not be a sin, it will be an entertaining game. And exactly as you say, gambling is a sin or not depends on the player, this issue is not related to gambling, it involves the self and the actions of each person when playing gambling

It is drug to others or they are comparing it with the same way because it is causing them to be addicted. And once a gambler is addicted to it, they will have hard time to recover with it.

It is okay to gamble and It's not a sin. Gambling is relatively for fun and entertainment, just make sure that you can control it. Too much gambling can lead you to make a sin. I think that's the connection between gambling and sin. Since, as far I'm concern I knew people who really are addicted to gambling. That at some point they do steal for them to play at any casino or betting sites, cheat in a game for them to win and worst is to kill just to clear their debts. Be in control and don't let gambling and greed take over.

It is a sin when we lost our money and it isn't when we won huge amount of money from gambling....jk. To be honest, most people around me said that gambling is indeed a sin but unfortunately, I don't care! As long as I can enjoy it.

It is a sin, admit it. It is pretty much like lying. You know that you are not allow to lie no matter in what religion you are however you could keep on justifying yourself telling it to yourself that it is fine to lie. In the end no matter what you think, it doesnt matter because it is a sin and it will be a sin that you have committed
