Follow your conscience ! If you don't have peace in doing it,it means God is not in it. But when you have peace ,go ahead and invest in it.

There's nothing wrong with it b'cos men of God even born again Christians lodges in the hotel each time they travel.
But as a born again christian, I won't invest in hotels.

Even Jesus Christ could have been born in a hostel but for lack of room.

Vital uses of Hotel includes:

Temporary accommodation

Conferences

Relaxation centre etc

op are you aware that even in the bible people pay for lodging which is the same as a hotel. I think your mixing all those brothel for hotel. Besides what happens in the room is not your business provided no law is broken . If its because of people having sex then you can't have any business as people have sex everywhere if you did not know . (even in them church universities)

As far as you're concern, making money is no sin... Even when its stealing, rituals and the rest.

Please, be mindful of what you preach.

Thanks!

IT'S NOT A SIN!!!
DO NOT LET ANYONE BRAINWASH YOU!
BUT IF YOU ARE NOT COMFORTABLE GOING INTO IT, DON'T DO IT.
IT'S A HOTEL AND NOT A BROTHEL!


P.S- DO NOT BE TOO HEAVENLY MINDED THAT YOU ARE OF NO EARTHILY BENEFIT!


one question

how are you of earthily benefit when you provide services to an individual in which that services is of detriment to the individual's health and those around the individual?

You open a hotel, yes, not everyone lodges with bad intentions but some lodge in solely to have premarital sex, smoke cigars and cigarrettes, drink alcoholoic wine with the same money they should have used to better themselves and, if they have, their family!

Please, kindly tell us how you are of EARTHILY benefit and how you are also not TOO HEAVENLY MINDED?

Sure, you did no sin but you aided others to sin! Which is exactly what satan does to a Christian - aid us to disobey and rebel against God.

So, if satan is getting punished for causing the fall of man, why then should this individual with a hotel where abominations are done not also get the same punishment with satan?


It is a hotel not a brothel?!

Tell us what is the difference? What is it they do in a brothel that isn't done in a hotel?

Ignorant backward nigerian Christians are just so annoying,what is wrong in running a hotel business? you people won't ever stop this ignorance in the name of Christianity,so Christians shouldn't also build apartment houses for rent because people are going to have sex inside it?
Even Paul lived in a rented (Guest inn) in Rome for 2 years,its there in the bible,you go about claiming born again and yet don't read your bible

In Acts 28:30 The bible said

And he remained two whole years in his own hired lodging, and received all who came to him.

Even Jesus Christ was almost born inside a hotel room,the bible said Joseph and Mary came into Bethlehem for the census and sort to rent an upper room in a inn but was told no room for a pregnant woman so they ended up in a menger.

Also See where Jesus sent his disciples to an inn to go ask for a room where he will stay for passover see: (Luke 22:11;
and ye shall say to the master of the house, The Teacher says to thee, Where is the guest-chamber where I may eat the passover with my disciples?

Shut up! But don't be angry.

I think you don't know what you are saying. The love of money is the source of evil, and not just money as you alleged.

How is investing in hotel business a sin? The pastors that visit unknown locations that hotel is needed to help them lay their heads nko? Are they committing sin too?
They landlords that build houses for members of the public to rent, do they control what the tenants do inside? Or is that sin too?

The market woman that buy goods with N1000 and sell them with N2000, making a gain of N1000; is she different from the category of people you listed as sinners? Or you don't know the extra N1000 profit she made belongs to someone?

People should stop being over religious. Business is business. The best you can say here is that your values will not permit you to invest in such business.
....and don't mention MMM again grin grin

So you are Christian abi? OK. Please if your organization sponsor you to go for training in abroad and you are to stay in a 5 star hotel, reject it. If you have the opportunity to travel to dubai or China to buy goods to start a wonderful business, please don't stay in a hotel. Just go and knock the door of one Arabian and they will host you.

. Bro listen very well, life in God have nothing to do with worldly business or riches.and when I said business am not talking about buying and selling.the word hotel is an open place for every person without restriction.working there is not wise for a believer because of the side attractions from those patronising to it.
The world is filled with competition mostly in the issues concerning money,so please avoid any how biz,work or something else that will take you back to what u have previously overcome. Salvation is cost but free. Thanks

Hotels are modern and improved "Inns". For hospitality away from home...

Hotel management is a globally accepted
professional career field and academic field of
study. Degree programs such as hospitality
management studies, a business degree, and/or
certification programs formally prepare hotel
managers for industry practice.
-wikipedia

A Brothel on the other hand...is a place designed for prostitution and other sexual activities.


Knowledge is key here... And in the end, it boils down to your perception of things and the measures you're ready to take to prevent some activities from going down in your organization.

Boy! Now you know. Be careful about how you talk against His people... You ask who am I but if I show you what you asked for, will you be able to stand it...Again, be warned the kinds of Languages or words you use.

If you choose to remain unwise despite all I said, then you will only have yourself to blame...

That's what am talking about, not all Christians are true Christian... Some just hide under the name to speak nonsense.

May Jesus draw you nearer boy.

Not all Christians are genuine Christian...

Hotel where some people have sex on that same bed you will lodge into... What a joke!
You would have killed yourself because people who commit sin also live among you on earth...judging from your conclusion.

Secondly, what is genuine or born again christian? Who made the categorization? Less christians; full christians; genuine ones, fake ones?
My brother, a man who is not a christian is not a christian. There is nothing like genuine or fake, or less christian

You don't understand what you're quoting. Lawyers understand Sins and HelHell better. That's why they simplify all AGREEMENTS into OFFER AND ACCEPTANCE WITH CONSIDERATION IN BETWEEN.

You can build it and maintain ur standards which will direct the hotel's administration. The problem is that we have a common notion of hotels in nigeria, and if ur heart bleeds easily, don't attempt to work or operate a hotel.
