Modern life has many aspects. Let's examine, briefly, a few Christian attitudes and actions typical in every aspect. In matters of religion Christians hear neither inner voices of instruction, nor the teachings of men; they listen well, however, to the voice of God, the Holy Bible.

Gambling and the Bible Bible Recently in a southern city a young man was canvassing the community selling chances on $25.00 to be given away by local church of which the boy was a member. After carefully learning from the youngster the facts, one of his contacts asked him, "Isn't that gambling?" The reply was, "Not if I do it for the church".
