Is gambling a sin Bible verse

Is gambling a sin Bible verse Regular brand Yes, Aunt Bettie is right about Dr. John; he doesn't see a woman, and there is no way to make him. What she had said about it made me realise that he had always been like that, and I told myself that there was no reason in the world why my heart should beat in my slippers on that account. Still I don't see why Ruth Clinton should have her head literally thrown against that stone wall, and I wish Aunt Bettie wouldn't. It seemed like a desecration even to try to match-make him, and it made me hot with indignation all over. I dug so fiercely at the roots of my phlox with a trowel I had picked up that they groaned so loud I could almost hear them. I felt as if I must operate on something. And it was in this mood that Alfred's letter found me.,Miss Jinny gave a snort of defiance. "Just you wait till this month is over, Patricia Louise Kendall," she said belligerently. "I'll be back in that old rut so tight you won't be able to see where I ran in again. Not go back to housekeeping with mama, indeed! I'll bet that I put up as many extra pickles and jams this year as I ever did, and with the exception of having the library and you people and the Haldens again, I don't see much change ahead of me, I can tell you!","You have certainly made out a strong case against this man," said Meg, after a pause, "but it is all theory. Your proofs?","Humph! Didn't the doctor think it strange that he should find it there?","Pooh, she didn't have to pay much," said Judith with the callousness of childhood. "She only gave back the prize and left the Academy."，"Can't you tell by looking at them?" demanded Patricia. "Do they look as though they'd expected anything like this? Of course we didn't know.

"Why did you not call out?"，"I know something of most things," assented the doctor.

Who received her?"

"You will see in a few minutes. Miss Dallas, you look pale. I hope soon to bring back the roses to your cheeks. Major--","True enough," rejoined the major, struck by this sensible deduction. "Still, he might not have heard them forcing the window.","Hush!" she cautioned, slipping an absent hand into Judith's quivering palm. "Bruce is talking. Oh, isn't he dear, to say nice things of each of us. It's like commencement time, Ju, isn't it? All the good little girls get prizes, but I wish he wouldn't go back to that honorable mention of mine. I feel like an impostor.","Go away, girl," he said in his rudest manner; "don't you see I'm busy?","Comedy!" echoed Mrs. Dallas, in scorn. "You mean tragedy!","Me don't know what debble-stick is. I no touch him.","I shall answer that question. Dr. Etwald," he said, loudly. "Miss Dallas shall not and can not marry you. She has promised to be my wife.","Mine also, major. Yet you don't suspect me of the deed.","You can learn that only from the woman herself.",Maurice grew serious, and paused at the top of the drive, just out of sight of the house, to reply to this question.,"How do you know that?" asked the major, all on the alert.,"You must be, if you know who killed Maurice, yet refuse to confess," retorted Jen, with some heat.
