It used to be wrong to gamble. It violated the Christian work ethic.
It used to be that a church would not accept gambling winnings as an offering. I wonder how many wink at it today.

Same with fornication. Now it’s just dating with benefits. Or totally ignored. Can’t let the offering and attendance levels drop, after all.
Benefits: It’s the new fornication.
Divorce? No sin there. Nothing to talk about.
Is there any longer a definition of worldly that can be contrasted with holiness, then be given a working application?
