The word karma isn't mentioned. The scriptures do say "give and it will be given back to you.... and "what you sow you also reap", so the concept is there I think.

The word karma is not but the principle of it is there. Karma is basically the law of cause and effect, action and reaction.
The bible does declare that what is sown will be reaped. It also says do unto others as you would like them to do unto you.
In my opinion the Bible is a book of pure truth and it does declare two sides. One is what is and the other is what can be. Karma is limited to the what is side but I personally do not see karma in the what can be side if that side is with God. If one chooses to be without God, then the karma continues in my opinion.

It's not in the Bible, as the word "karma". It is in the Bible, an unknown number of times, the fact that if you do bad, it will come back to haunt you. I believe in it wholeheartedly! For some reason, and i'm not exaggerating, whenever i lie about something, it comes back to haunt me everytime, within a few minutes to a few hours of the lie. It could be a white lie, but any lie is very unpleasing to God. I could get hurt, or anything! Any situation that is very unpleasant happens whenever i lie.
As the old saying goes, whatever goes around, comes around.

The word karma is not mentioned, but it means the same as the verse " you reap what you sow" Gal. 6:7-8

No. The word 'karma' does not appear in the Bible.
However, the idea that actions have consequences, and the idea that you reap what you sow exists throughout the Bible.

Christians do no longer settle for them because of the fact they do no longer seem to be interior the Bible. there is not any seen an afterlife interior the TaNaKh, and the hot testomony speaks specially of a Heaven and a Hell.
