No offense but you're a kook. This was a good man that won money then says he'll do good things with it. The week before he won the lottery he saw a small boy on TV who when asked what he wanted for Christmas say he wished he had a bed to sleep in. This man sent the family a $10,000 check. He got paid back for his generosity. You're whining about it makes your religion look rather odd to normal folk...

[Revelation 911]

ever heard of Bingo? It often takes place in church basements.

Too bad isnt it?

[Revelation 911]

what I see are a lot of freepers justifying poor behavior and the promise of easy riches, oblivious to the corrupting nature of wealth - If I am a kook - so be it - but personal attacks really dont buttress your position. Can you Scripturally justify the amassing of huge amounts of wealth ?

[go star go]

To be honest with you, if there were heaven and hell, I'd rather go to hell with this man than go to heaven with folk like you...

[go star go]

What's the significance of "pearley gates"? Isn't that wealth? Streets of gold?

[Revelation 911]

What about the story of Job. Godly man who was rich, God stripped him of all he had, stood the test of his convictions to God, God gives him everything and MORE for his convictions.

Gods will - do you presume to argue with God ?

Tell how gambling on a game of chance is Gods will ? - what matters more, the $10 this guy would have tithed with a clean heart or the 17 million he tithes with dirty hands in hopes of clearing his conscience

[Revelation 911]

To be honest with you, if there were heaven and hell, I'd rather go to hell with this man than go to heaven with folk like you...

and this personal attack aids your corrupt position how

- Lord give them eyes to see !

[go star go]

I don't have a position. I'm just pointing out how evil you appear to the world.

[Revelation 911]

why is Las Vegas called sin city ? - for the prostitutes ? - puhleeze

[go star go]

But YOUR position is sort of funny actually. You are trashing this man, calling him a sinner, because he's giving money to the church to do good deeds. That's funny given that I'm sure your pastor begs for dollars with a collection plate every time they open the church doors.

[go star go]

And we all know God would have prefered that a real "sinner" had won this money and blew it on boats, houses, cars, women, and parties...

Some position you've got there Mr Bible...

[Taliesan]

How do you suppose the woman of ill-repute could afford that vial of expensive oil she lavished on Jesus' feet?

[Revelation 911]

I don't have a position. I'm just pointing out how evil you appear to the world.

Yeah - maybe youre right - wanting to take away everybodys good times for fear of the endless torment theyll most certainly endure at the hands of the deceptive one -

Am i pompous? - 'probly - I'll give you that - Am i concerned about you and everyone here - honestly yes.

Am I demanding you dont flip coins or have a sip of wine now and then - no - but gambling is most definitely a vice - use extreme caution in letting sin get a foothold in your life -

[go star go]

Don't look now but that Bible you like to quote says it's a sin for you to judge this lottery winner Mr Sinner Man...

[go star go]

... now... contort you way out of that one...

[go star go]

Why don't you post that scripture for us Mr Bible Sinner Man...

[Squantos]

LOL....Stay Safe !!

[Revelation 911]

Some position you've got there Mr Bible...

are you finished with the insults? - if not, I'll start flagging the mod -

[Revelation 911]

Don't look now but that Bible you like to quote says it's a sin for you to judge this lottery winner Mr Sinner Man...

Ive not Judged him = rather I pray for him & you

[go star go]

Afraid to defend your position? Flag whoever you want. If you can't take the heat you better stop sinning about this man that won the lottery cause I hear it's hot as the dickins in hell...

Oh and don't forget to post that scripture that says it's a sin to judge others. You do want to be honest don't you? Nice Christian feller like yourself...
