The problem I have with Nigerians is that we over flog issues! Are you saying there is no xtians in Nigerian Breweries, British American Tobacco company, good hotels businesses, and whichever company that's manufacturing condom that generates huge taxes and revenues for both state and fed govnmt ! But we attach so many things to Christianity

Since nothing stops me from paying the tithe to the church, so why will i even think of not working with multi national companies in the first place !

Please lets get our thinking right and move on with good things of life! Enough of African mentality

with the high rate and level of unemployment, is it good for a born again spirit filled Christian to work in any of the following industries??
a. Alcohol/ Beer industry
b. Cigarette industry
c. Condom industry
d. Guest house/ Hotel

I see nothing wrong if a born-again christian works in any of the mentioned places
Re: Is It Right For A Born Again Spirit Filled Christian To Work In These Places?? by Reference(m): 7:25pm On May 10, 2015
The simple answer to the first two is no. The condom and hotel industry is less clear cut. This is according to the law. But we donot live according to the law but by grace and this is manifest in the 'leading of God'.

'The Lord is my Shepherd (thus) I shall not 'be found wanting'....Though I walk through (it has a beginning and an end)... I shall fear no evil. For though art with me....'

And anyone who is familiar with God's leading knows that at some stage in life's journey you may find yourself in places you never expected not by your will but by the Will of He who called you according to His grace and mercy.

The key here is to be led. Make sure you are not going anywhere (even the safest of places) without the express permission of God. My walk with Him has made me understand a few things about Him. He absolutely takes delight in confounding us, in making those things we rely on, those things we think we are and have attained of no effect so that His grace will shine through and the glory goes to Him alone.

I have never smoked a cigarette in my life, neither do I know what alcohol tastes like but I will never tell that to God lest I find myself working there for a season. Folks, your relationship with God is the most important not these mundane, temporary things.

b. Cigarette industry
c. Condom industry
d. Guest house/ Hotel

a: alcohol? depends on the kind of alcohol, if its the type people drink (beer, whiskey etc) No, but if its alcohol in the form of methylated spirit etc, Yes.
b. cigarette industry? No
c. condom industry? yes, why you may ask? the use of condoms is not synonymous with infidelity.
d. guest house/ hotel? yes, as long as his assigned duty do not contradict his faith. please note hotel isn't synonymous with brothel.

but yet again almost all the breweries have a malt brand, so I believe a born again Christian can work in a brewery, as long as he works under the malt brand.

Stop sucking up to Seun! because it appeared on the front page doesn't make it good. This forum is going to the dog... and the downward spiral of the topics that makes the front page is quite disgusting. How else would you explain post like "look at what he gave his wife" or worse ... maggot found in someones....?

It's as if you're all 14 years old and in early puberty - please engage your brain. let's make the community a better place where people can learn something good and entrench or engage ourselves in backward topics.

See bro it has nothing to do with over flogging anything and its not only an African thing,see my Pastor once said something. He said "Religion is what man does to please God,Christianity is what God did for man" there's a clear difference between the two

It is not right for a truly born again Christian to work in any of these places, excluding "Guest Houses/Hotels. But how many true born again Christian do we have in Nigeria today? Also considering the high level of unemployment, Nigerians don't just have a choice for now.

most times I wonder why Nigerians practice religion instead of christainity,if I am a mechanical engr,accountant and so on,i should not work in this places because I am a born again,na wa for Nigerians,most of us don't know that the substance injected in our system during operation that makes one not to feel pain is cocaine,we also forget that alcohol is the best conservative substance in the world,and it is present in almost all the medicine.what do u think makes u dizzy when u take malaria drug,abeg we better wake up

I don't see anything wrong in a born again person working in an hotel, it's all because the essence of an hotel is being misused by people but for the other three it's best such a person stay away.
