If and ONLY if pastor gives him another wonderful job that glorifies God and still make him smile to the bank every month, then he should quit.

Op...u have painted ur friend's side of the story but if the pastor is a genuine man of God no one here despite all their rantings knws what the pastor may have seen in the spirit...Your friend on the spot should have asked the pastor 'WHY'. Its not bad for him to knw the pastor's reasons for not being in support of the job that way he may have beem able to decern if it was a spiritual warning or the pastor's opinion. Also if he has trust in his pastor and can confirm he is a genuine man of God then its better to ffg the pastors advice....the ways of God is not the ways of Men.

Take the job u say? Dude you and the fellow are not yet true Christians. A true Christian will reject the job outrightly... Rejecting the job won't be the end of the world for him. Infact, it could be a turning point in his life by making him to look inwards..
By your standard, Jesus Christ is not even true Christian .

Good morning everyone. i dont really know if here is the righr place to post this? Mods pls move it to the right section just in case this post misses its way to the wrong section.

A friend of mine called me yesterday to break the good news that he got a miracle job early this month with Nigeria Brewries Limited as a maintenance engineer. you will agree with me that NBL is one of the few coy in Nigeria today that has fantastic renumuration packages for it workforce.

just last sunday, after the church service my friend, with all the excitement in him decided to informed his pastor about the recent ugrade that has just started in his life. when he told his pastor about the job he just got with the Nigerian Brewries, the pastor's countenance changed immediately. he told my friend that he should immediately resign from the job on the excuse that such job opportunity does not glorified God and that it will lead him to hell fire. My friends has dependants who are looking up to him for support. his wife and four kids are there to take care of. At the moment he is at a cross road contemplating on weather to quit the job cos of the pastor's biblical assertions or hold on to the job for his family sake.

Counsellors in the house, please what do you advise he should do in this situaton. thanks.

It's very simple. Tell your friend not break down about this. Let him keep the job, to support his family, consequently look-out for another job.

He has to keep searching, while on this job. He need to live...

You see, initially i was against this pastor's advice. But things are not always the way we looked at it.

Now we don't know the type of pastor he is, the kind of anointing he has, and even his calling.

Now the pastor prayed for a miracle Job and brewery Job surfaced. Now the pastor reaction has shows that such a Job was not what he prayed for, meaning a better work with good salary is on the way. But this brother is impatient because of his predicament.
At the same time he knows the type of church they attends knowing fully that his pastor preaches against alcohol and now he is ready to compromise his faith because of a little offer and challenge.

If he goes on and collect that Job,
1 his relationship with God may drop drastically or he losses it completely.
2 he may die along the process, either by accident or otherwise, accident does not necessarily have to be vehicular there re other forms of accident. I prayed that none will ever happen to him.
3 he is a man of little faith and can easily compromised his faith because of money when a little challenges comes his way.


I advice him to take his pastor's advice and believe God for his miracle Job to come his way soon.

All that glitters isn't gold. The job might be a test for your faith, what about if he eventually lose the job after going against the words of God (if the Bible actually talked against alcohol, cos i'm a Muslim o)?. We just can't be smarter than God. If its forbidden for you to take alcohol, why get involved in its production?

Firstly, your friend is st*upid for even listening to this useless pastor.
Secondly, your friend must be a fool for considering leaving his job because a pastor doesn't like it! Did he get the job for the pastor or for himself?

What has the pastor got to do with his job? Does he actually think the pastor has power to get someone a good job by simply praying? If that conman called a pastor has power to get someone a good job, I'm sure he won't chose to be a pastor!

Tell your dumb friend to keep his job! And also tell him that he didn't get the job by any other means than his credentials! Prayer doesn't work!!
People who have hope in prayers are lazy religious as*sholes!

Hi brother.
I work with Nigerian Breweries and all I can tell you is that you should advise your friend to hold on to the job. Working with the company does not make one short of righteousness, everything depends on how one chooses to live his life. Let him retain the job please as the pastor won't feed his family if he resigns. Wait a minute please, does it mean that all employees of Nigerian Breweries are hell bound? I am pretty sure the pastor won't shy away should he get some donation from the company. That's my opinion though.

Spiritually mature advice.

@op; I want you to go to YouTube and listen to Frank Edward's story.Just type in Frank Edwards - My story.

He said he was offered a big opportunity to make it big globally if he could replace the name of Jesus with god in his music just to please men listeners.He almost agreed but God warned him not to.This was a time he and his family had nothing.He chose to obey God and now we all know his present story.

Tell your friend to have a deep discussion with his pastor along with prayer and fasting.The job might just turn out to be his last test before that awesome breakthrough.

You are blessed.

I understood you perfectly, but would let you know, our God is not wicked, if he's working with N B , with the aim of being temporary, I believe all his mind will be on another job. More over, working temporary with big big company would help him get another big job.

Faith can be shaken in all way, not until you work with certain company. If God want to test your faith this way. Go for it and prove the devil you are fully stand with God and never get carried away.

Hmmm, I couldn't help but smile while reading the numerous comments against the pastor's advice, reminding me of the scripture that says broad is the road that leads to destruction and narrow is the way that leads to salvation. I bet majority against the pastor's advice will curse the day a brewery was built when his/her 18 year old daughter crosses her legs in their sitting room with only one and a half bottle of Star and argues thus:"Daddy/Mummy, see I'm not drunk, in fact I can tell the color of your cloth"
Even in Islamic Accounting/Banking, alcoholic businesses (tagged Haram) are not to be given loans, how much more Christians deliberating on this.
There is the logic that malt drinks are also produced there...I almost fell for it. See, the devil is very subtle...who amongst us here with his/her natural IQ is more intelligent than Eve or the serpent?
If your friend is a true Christian, he should prove God by not taking the job. Or is God wicked not to come sure for him knowing that he "foolishly" rejected the job for His name sake? It's a difficult decision especially with the family factor, but let him prove God. In fact, he should not have applied in the 1st place.
