text: why is it wrong for christians to stake lotto or to gamble? do you think lottory is bad? christianity is a fulfillment of ones heart and desires, by gambling really you place your greed before your god who is materialistic. materialistic possession we will leave here on earth and when we are judged we will have no worldly things to fall on. also we will come and go on earth but live for eternity and therefore why don't we live our lives in fulfilling gods work and then we will be rich in our after lives.
