I am innocent of the sin of buying lottery tickets -ha ha.
Please tell me how to do this.
Awake! 91 5/8 9 - But is winning the lottery really a hope? It's much more an illusion, a mirage, an improbable dream. Certainly a conscientious Christian will not waste his time and resources in the vain pursuit of gambling wealth.
Awake! 81 11/22 27 - Admittedly, lotteries bring financial benefits to a scattered few. But to the vast majority who play them, the results are detrimental. Loss of incentive, impoverishment, enslavement to a vice and quarrels are but a few of these. Read in the Bible what can happen to those who 'set in order a table for the god of Good Luck.' They "go hungry," "go thirsty," "will suffer shame" and "will howl because of sheer breakdown of spirit."-Isa. 65:11-14.
Loss of incentive, impoverishment, enslavement to a vice & quarrels...I'll go hungry, thirsty, suffer shame and howl???
