OliveTree32, you are right, it is my choice. I don't have a problem with it. If you do, then it's your problem.
Slepsog,
You don't know anything about me. To say that I want to be childish and play games is proof of that. I was simply responding to a previous comment. I think what is childish, is assuming that me going to a casino is going to be a road block to someone. Do you eat chocolate cake? Well that could be a roadblock to someone. Anything we do could be. Everything we do is tainted with sin and that is why Christ came and died for us.
As I stated in previous posts, I have prayed about it, and asked God that if it is an offense to Him, that He will trouble my soul and let me know. That hasn't happened yet. It's the Lord that I trust, in my relationship with Him, to instruct me on what He wants me to do , or not to do. Who better to instruct me than the Lord?
I still have not seen anything that includes entertainment in the sin catagory. When my mother was a girl, they were preaching in the churches, that television was a sin, and girls wearing pants. Well I guess it's ok now. Because someone says it is a sin, doesn't make it true. That's why I rely on the Lord to teach me what I can and can't do. People, all people, even you, are sinners, humans, and hypocrytes, just as Paul said. We are all guilty, and are all capable of the worst. I will never aspire to be anyones example. Christ is that, alone.
If you are offended by that, then again, that's your problem. Pray about it, and take yourselves out of the judgement seat.
By the way, marajuana is addressed as a seed bearing plant. God gave us diminion over everything seed bearing. I had an aunt that took marajuana when she had cancer. It helped her greatly. Now I suppose you have decided that is a sin. But where's your proof of that?
