Is it Ok to Work at a Place that Sells Booze?

By David J. Stewart

       It is tragic what alcohol has done to so many families... death, immorality, abuse. Alcohol is the Devil's favorite beverage.  Oh, how America has been polluted with the vile lifestyle that alcohol promotes... a lifestyle of drunkenness, immorality, nudity, and wild partying. 

Here are some words of wisdom from Evangelist John R. Rice, in response to the question:

Is it wrong to work in the kitchen of a place which sells alcohol even if I have nothing to do with the drinks directly? ...

"In my judgment, you are helping in a bad business.  I would not be willing even to eat in a place where drinks are served, much less to work there.  I believe if it is right for you to work there, it is right for people to eat there.  If it is all right to eat there, then it is all right for people to run the place as it is run and to sell drinks.  But that is obviously wrong.  They ought not to sell drinks, and you ought not to make a living out of as place that sells drinks, and I ought not to eat there and give my O.K. and my endorsement to the place which is selling drinks."

Alcohol is a menace to any society.  God never intended for His children to dull their minds with booze, surrendering their ability to think clearly, and making themselves vulnerable to demonic influence.  It is immoral to drive a beer truck.  It is immoral to work for a beer company, a night club, or a restaurant lounge that sells booze.  Argue as one may, wherever you find booze in this world, you will also find every sin imaginable.

The above picture speaks 1,000 words. The beer industry hypocritically tells teens not to drink alcohol until they are 21, while those same companies saturate American culture with booze, booze, booze! Consequently, underaged drinking is an epidemic problem in America!

Scriptures Condemning Drinking Strong Drink...

Judges 13:4, “Now therefore beware, I pray thee, and drink not wine nor strong drink, and eat not any unclean thing.”

1st Samuel 1:15, “And Hannah answered and said, No, my lord, I am a woman of a sorrowful spirit: I have drunk neither wine nor strong drink, but have poured out my soul before the LORD.”

Proverb:20:1, “Wine is a mocker, strong drink is raging: and whosoever is deceived thereby is not wise.”

Proverb 31:4, “It is not for kings, O Lemuel, it is not for kings to drink wine; nor for princes strong drink.”

Isaiah 5:22, “Woe unto them that are mighty to drink wine, and men of strength to mingle strong drink.”

Isaiah 24:9, “They shall not drink wine with a song; strong drink shall be bitter to them that drink it.”

Isaiah 28:7, “But they also have erred through wine, and through strong drink are out of the way; the priest and the prophet have erred through strong drink, they are swallowed up of wine, they are out of the way through strong drink; they err in vision, they stumble in judgment.”


“I've stood for more sneers and scoffs and insults and had my life threatened from one end of the land to the other by this God-forsaken gang of thugs and cutthroats because I have come out uncompromisingly against them.” —Billy Sunday

The Occult Roots of AA (Alcoholic's Anonymous)

Here's a Christian alternative to Alcoholics Anonymous...

Founded in 1948, Alcoholics Victorious support groups offer a safe environment where recovering people who recognize Jesus Christ as their "Higher Power" gather together and share their experience, strength and hope. AV meetings use both the 12 Steps and the Alcoholics Victorious Creed

There is Hope!
