Is It Wrong For A Christian To Work In A Brewery? by Skimpledawg(m): 5:32pm On Jan 25, 2016
A good friend of mine brought somewhat good news to me yesterday when he told me that his aunt that had a very 'strong leg' in one of the Nigerian Breweries asked for my CV but to my amazement, he told her I can't work there because am a Christian.... To be sincere, i almost slapped him. Please fellow landers, what is wrong with a Christian working in a Brewery?

Please constructive comments before I maim him.

Are you Trying to say that you can slap on any other day? Uhn!
Are you telling me you are keeping the sabbath day Holy but can slap him if it were some other days?

Now to the topic, Your friend really need to change that mentality. Why would he not want to work in a brewery!! Which biblical Principle stands against that? Is it all wines that are alcoholic? Or was it not wine that was used at the Marriage in canaan in the Bible? Please show him this to answer them correctly, if He can give a reason why he cant work there, then he is spared.

I havent come across a Principle in the bible that goes against that. That should be enough to convince your friend.

His argument is based on the premise that Wine/alcohols produced by this company leads to drunkenness which Ultimately leads to sin. And dat xtians shuld'nt be working in such places that will inadvertently lead people to hell.
Re: Is It Wrong For A Christian To Work In A Brewery? by Nobody: 11:02pm On Jan 25, 2016
There is a Hymn titled "the great judgment day".

And verse in that Hymn goes thus,
"the drunkard was there and the man that had sold them the drink and with the people who gave them the license, together in hell do they sink"

What makes you think that the factory worker who works in the factory will be exempted??..

He who partakes in the destruction of the health and body of men leading to the defilement of God's temple is guilty of death both physical and spiritual.

I understand that angle he's coming from But That's just not the way out.
So your friend could wish that something happens and those wine producing companies are runned down?
Does it mean there are no spirit-filled christians working in such places?
Re: Is It Wrong For A Christian To Work In A Brewery? by flokii: 11:30pm On Jan 25, 2016

I searched that hymn on google, I dint find the exact one with that lyrics.

In that case, almost every company should be Shut down because most things are now being used for the wrong purposes.
An instance is condom, the company producing it created it for safety during sexual intercourse But a lot see that as a reason to fornicate and commit adultery because of course, They are protected. Do we say the company should be Shut because some people are using it for the wrong reason?

Are you aware that some people desire to work in certain places because of how much they would steal from there? some who dont work in breweries cheat their neighbour even in their own companies? whosoever is guilty of one iniquity is guilty of all.

We need God's Grace and leading to be blameless in this World.

Thank you.
I think we all just need more Understanding about these things. What your friend did wasn't fresh at all. He should have thought it a little further before concluding. How about going there and being the "Light"?
If at all he wanted to Decline the offer, it should be because The Holy spirit told him to. But his stated reasons are not concrete enough.

It's God that search the hearts of men and everything is laid bare before him.

Sometimes, morals teach us not to engage in unholy activities.

When the heart is right one will act right.

The hymns is number 208,titled the great judgment day
