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

To: Revelation 911
Did you ever consider God's presence in man and within all of us is the desire to help our brothers and sisters to include those who are starving and dying from lack of food and water ? Would these recipients question the origin of the food being donated to them or would they thank their creator for caring for them ?

The reason there are over 100,000 versions of Christianity worldwide shows that words can be interpreted many ways but the acts of good men (and women) keep the world ïn good order when people act with God's love in their hearts. The LOVE OF MONEY is contrary to the LOVE OF GOD so thats where money may seem evil but its like fire and can be used for good or evil.
