“The God Casino”

“The Fool Says in His Heart '
There Is NO GOD'”
Psalm 53:16

“There is but ONE GOD, the Father,
From whom all things came and for whom we live”
1 Corinthians 8:6

Pascal French philosopher, scientist and mathematician Blaise Pascal proposed a theory that from a purely mathematical standpoint that belief in God is logical. His argument was that you have two choices.

You can believe that there IS A GOD that exists or there IS NO GOD. Then given that there is in fact God, then eternal life is possible and perhaps probable for those that believe, however for those that do not believe WILL LOSE EVERYTHING.

But if god does not exist (but you believe he did) then while you may have led a good moral life, your only 'loss' is that you could have enjoyed “the pleasures of sin for a season.” (Hebrews 11:25) So the question is, 'Is It Worth Taking That Chance?'

Pascal put it this way:

' Let us weigh the gain and the loss in wagering that God is. Let us estimate these two chances. If you gain, you gain all; if you lose, you lose nothing. Wager, then, without hesitation that He is.'

Simply put, from a pure logic standpoint, the potential benefits of believing are so vast and mathematically favorable as to make betting on theism rational. If one chooses to NOT believe, what you may gain by living a carefree life of no consequences would come to a regretful, eternal end outside of God.

We all have free will and are free to choose to believe whatever you wish. We are all in the God Casino and all WILL place their bet. The odds are 2:1 that you will indeed lose nothing by 'betting' and believing in God!

How will you be placing your bet?
