Who
Is a Christian Entrepreneur?
A
Christian Entrepreneur is a disciple of Jesus Christ who has chosen to “express
himself” or fulfil his stewardship by setting up a business venture to provide
essential products or services that will meet the need of, as well as add value
to, an identified market (people) in the society. What Are The Qualities of a Christian
Entrepreneur?
¡
He is a steward 1 Corinthians 4:2: Moreover it is required in stewards, that a
man be found faithful ¡ He is a Non-compromiser ¡ He is a Non-conformist with
the popular conventions of business practice ¡ He is a Faithful Servant Matthew
24:45-47: Who then is a faithful and wise servant, whom his lord hath made
ruler over his household, to give them meat in due season? Blessed is that
servant, whom his lord when he cometh shall find so doing. Verily I say unto
you, that he shall make him ruler over all his goods. ¡ He is a Treasurer ¡ He
is a Minister/Evangelist in the marketplace Acts 1:8: But you shall receive
power when the Holy Spirit has come upon you; and you shall be witnesses to Me
in Jerusalem, and in all Judea and Samaria, and to the end of the earth. ¡ He
personifies Love in his offerings and dealings The integrative principle that
must guide Christians in the marketplace is that of love. ¡ Love compels
Christians to put their faith into action and to live what they believe. ¡ Love
will motivate Christians in the marketplace to follow the example of Christ in
the incarnation. ¡ It will move them to identify with those who are lost and
alone in a dark world. ¡ It will allow them to share in the sufferings of those
they care for and by bringing the presence of Christ into the marketplace also
bring transformation and hope.
