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.



Please, what are these common notions? Kindly highlight?

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?

First of all,there is no job that doesn't promote sin directly or indirectly. At least 90% of jobs/businesses do!

Please consult a dictionary to know the difference between a hotel and brothel.
Question- If you lease an apartment to Someone, and the person decides to have premarital sex with random women in your apartment, will the sin be counted to you?or does that mean that you renting it to that person encourages sin?
Don't men of God lodge in hotels when going to other cities for crusades and other church programs.
Like I said earlier,"DO NOT BE TO HEAVENLY MINDED THAT YOU ARE OF NO EARTHLY BENEFIT".

Even the Bible is against self righteousness!
Study Ecclesiastic 7:15-20.
If his mind and spirit goes with the hotel business,he should do it.
As for you classifying taking of alcohol and smoking as sin,I couldn't help but laugh.
Soon you'll tell me putting on jewellery is a sin and also say working in a brewery is a sin.Lolzzz.
Even Jesus,was liberal.


As for the other question you asked about Satan been punished for the fall of man and trying to relate it to this topic,please go study your bible well with understanding and the help of the Holy Spirit to gain more insight!

What exactly are you talking about? Everything in this world church inclusive can make people sin if they abuse it.
Does it occur to you that some young boys and girls come to the church to look for a girlfriend and boyfriend respectively. Does that make building a church a sin?

Even in ordinary houses that people rent. Does the landlord have control over the activities that take place in the house? Many people indulge in atrocities inside their room e.g having sex with girlfriend, cultism, divination, e.t.c. Is the landlord responsible for this?

Alcohol is used as a disinfectant and also has many industrial applications. However, people now abuse it. Has the producer of alcohol sinned?

Textile has also been abused as people now design clothes to expose their bodies. Has the producer of textile sinned?

If you abuse drug. food, car, and any utility, it can lead to sin or death.

In summary, a hotel owner has not committed any sin but those who commit sin in a hotel or any other place (church) inclusive are guilty.

If not that all hotels were occupied, he would had been born in an hotel, and not a manger.

We have lots of hotels that don't sell alcohol, some don't do short-time.

I see nothing bad in the business.

Its a place where u can freely take alcohol and smoke all kinds of substance (especially in the north). Its a place for sexual hideout for youths and the adulterer), its a place to enjoy life and put off being sober (we are instructed as christians to be always sober and watchful), its worldly music that makes the hotel lively (nobody goes there to sing or dance to voice of the cross).

So these and many more are what you will encounter if u want to own a hotel in nigeria.
Re: Is It Proper For A Christian To Run A Hotel Business? by Nobody: 3:09pm On Jan 29, 2017
You run your business. The morality or behaviour of others are not your responsibility.

As long as you market your hotel as a regular hotel,

If you are saying hotel business immoral by association, with the private business conducted by its customers, it may as well be argued that every business that supplies hotels or deals with the so-called "immoral" hotel customers; including taxi and food vendors are also immoral.

In effect using this analogy you can as well argue that 99.99% of businesses are immoral at least by association.

Re: Is It Proper For A Christian To Run A Hotel Business? by Nobody: 3:36pm On Jan 29, 2017
Well,
Steve Jobs and Steve Wozniak started Apple Inc to make and sell computers, they are key people in the computer revolution of the 70's, but don't worry, people use computers to watch porn, do illegal businesses(yahoo etc.) and the like, they are all sinners. Same can be said for Bill Gates, Paul Allen, Dennis Ritchie, etc.
Larry Page and Sergey Brin founded Google, but don't worry as well, they are sinners because people use it to search for crap.
Sir Tim Berbers Lee created the web, don't you worry at all OP. He is a sinner because use it to distribute porn, cheat, online bullying, right?
Karl Benz, Henry Ford, automobile pioneers are also sinners because people die in car accidents, have illicit sex in cars as well, right?
I could go on and on and on.
If people thought like this, do you know where we would be?
In the stone age, naked, cold, dying of strange diseases, living in an endless cycle because it would be a sin to do anything. undecided

quote author=greatnaija01 post=53010989]yes na... its an hospitality business. HOTEL is not HOT-HELL. for every good thing there is always an evil use.... so dont feel bad about it. THE BUSINESS IS NOT A SIN. even if some peeps lodge in there for sex... HOTEL Is very different from BROTHEL.... BROTHEL is the HOTEL that houses prostitutes who pay their rent with sex...

Why I can't invest in it is that, there are other background activities that takes place in hotels in other to keep the hotel lively which may be against my faith or liking.

There's no business in this world that you won't find practices that's against your faith, you only set boundaries.

@bolded, IMO, you are deluded, how does being a worker in a road construction company make you to sin? How does being a pastor make you to sin? How does being a farmer make you to sin?

Your 90% is just a lie!

If you build a house or own a house and your friends come there to fornicate or do illegal activities, how is your house different from a brothel or a hotel that does that?

Is it because you own it or is it because it is your private residence? People also own brothels and hotels are also some peoples private residence!

Please you are asking me if drinking beer or smoking is a sin?

Please tell me their benefits, if you can you will know there is no need for me to dignify you with an answer in this aspect, seriously.

And by the way, if you had answered my first question of how is it of EARTHILY BENEFIT and not TOO HEAVENLY MINDED to open a place where people come to commit attrocities and waste money that should have been used to better themselves or, if they have, their family?

It is just one question I asked that made you type an epistle, nothing wrong with your epistle but you didn't answer my question!

If people are going to hell, why must it be through you or your handwork? Why must it be you that acquires the ride for them?

I do not buy this your input herein.

You writing here, how do you know that you will even make heaven since you already condemning people herein by judging them?You have no right whatsoever to condemn any human being. Only God can say who is right or wrong. There are so many Christians or none-Christians that own hotels.

It all depends on your reasons/intention to owning one. If you establish one just for alcohol and s3x exploitation, then it is wrong.

Christians lodge in hotels when they travel. Now you who claim to be a saint, if you travel to a place maybe on official duty or whereby you know nobody within that place to stay, are you telling me now that you will end up sleeping on the street? Just know what you just say or respond to.

Do you agree that God created (built) the earth and everything in it?

Now that we have abused them (ourselves inclusive), is God responsible for us going to hell?

Better still, does it mean that if there are no hotels, people would not commit sin by fornicating and getting drunk? Is the hotel responsible for those sins?

The fact that you don't like something does not make it a sin. Everybody cannot conform to your desire.

My friend who gained admission in Uniben travelled to Benin. He knew no one there, guessed where he stayed for a while before he got a place in the hostel? It wasn't a church, it was an hotel.
My dad travelled to Ondo state for a 5-day meeting, he knew no one there, guess where he stayed? A hotel.
There are millions of cases like this, where people gained temporary accommodation in places where they they know on one.
You can as well say phone companies commit sin by selling phones because people do all sorts of nonsense with them. Same can be said of internet companies, web companies.
Heck, even mobile operators like glo, Mtn, etc commit sin because of the data to browse.
Get off your high horse fella. You can't come here to say nonsense and display your stupidity because you have access to a phone.
Think before you type and not the other way round, that's if you think at all.
What nonsense is this?.
