I am just thinking... Cards... With cards are so many fun games to play... But few peoples says that christians should not play that. They says that even simple game, means something. I mean something bad - like wizards doing. Dont know how it is in english... sorry for that. :D So... If you understand what i am asking, pleas, aswere me! :D Cards - Good or bad? :D

Thank you!

Playing cards aren't bad in general. Using cards for gambling is more of a sin than using them to play simple games because the Bible tells use to stay away from the love of money (which gambling is). Also, gambling is addictive.

are you talking about gambling?

I think games are good but you must remember too worship GOD and focus on what He wants you to do with your life. People get distracted with games of winning and competing and forget to help others.

Cards... You can play cards if you want. As long as you are not gambling or doing it for selfish gain.

okkk so cards were used in witch craft and fortune telling and stuff like that (and still are) they were made for that type of stuff. each card started out as haveing a meaning like one would mean death or something, but now no one really cares about that. there just used for fun card games! soo like a lot of things their original meaning was bad... but now they can be good lol i dont see a problem with them at all though, to me as long as your not useinng them for the wrong stuff their fine!

a lot of trading card games like yu gi oh have satanic cards in them like "nurse reficule the fallen one"..backwards reficule
= elucifer which they just recently reprinted so people would forget the name. The entire "darklords" archetype is all satan and fallen angels literally...
revelation 12:9
[SUP]"[/SUP]So the great dragon was cast out, that serpent of old, called the Devil and Satan, who deceives the whole world; he was cast to the earth, and his angels were cast out with him."
check it out they even have their own card for that

because i just randomly saw this thread and decided to respond to it... It's not like i don't have any knowledge or history on the subject... I played yu gi oh and magic the gathering for over a decade on a competitive level, and i noticed that a lot of the cards they come out with are satanic and refer to lucifer/satan a lot. My post before was just a simple warning not to get into playing those types of card games.

I like playing Mau mau.. playing a few games isnt easy. I would even sit down with ppl and play over peanuts and stuff...lol..and pennys. unless you make a bad habit out of it. <<normal cards

Now I had yugio and pokemon cards myself lol. I gathered them for quite a while gettin all the fancy cards and after a while they got boring and threw em away and made card houses with it.
As long as it doesnt get addictive your fine.

Yeah but playing an innocent game of cards, normal cards lol, is different from playing with ones that are satanic.
