It's a sin to play card games (spades, poker, etc) These few and a host of many things have been used by Christians as "GOD SAID..." party lines. We've taken so much scripture out of its proper context, not understanding the original intent for its writing, and have now embraced a total Westernized approach to the faith to make Jesus out to be someone who vilifies any & every piece of social/fun activity we participate in that's not affiliated with the church. We do this in the name of being piously "selling out" to God and ministering the truth to those who are lost, but we're driving them further and further away. Regardless of your denominational affiliation or background, this powerful message can be useful for all of us to have some healthy conversation about the sacred vs secular, what's ethical vs what's moral. So much of our preaching and convictions don't represent Jesus or the faith, but rather our fears and ignorance.
