Can My Job Be Considered A Sin? by BTTS(f): 3:24pm On Sep 12, 2021
Good day all. Please, I need your opinion on this

I work in a quasi- academic organization and we offer a wide range of academic services including thesis and dissertation writing, statement of purpose, and college admission and schorarship essay writing, we run the whole application process to foreign schools for clients, we revamp CV, anything writing, we do. Now the problem is, coming from a Bible believing church, I often feel bad after completing some of my clients work, especially when I write their research work. I am the one writing it, but in their respective schools, the research work will have my client as the author. I feel I'm partaking in a lie, one of the sin God really detest. Some of you may say I am not the one lieing, that it's my client, but I feel being part of the process, enabling a lie, makes it a sin.

Not to judge you, but one of the signs that shows that someone is truly saved or has the Spirit of God in him is when the person does things other people or those of the world would normally do, but feel bad or uncomfortable about it.

Copying in school is supposed to be normal right? I used to do it without thinking twice, but once I got truly saved, I just couldn't attempt it even if failure stared me at the face. Even my best friend had to adjust because I couldn't continue doing some of the things we used to do together before.

It's obviously not easy to do things differently from the way the world does them, you might suffer for it. But that's part and parcel of being truly saved which has its own benefits as well.

Pray that God guides you and gives you to grace to make the right decision and do the right thin.

God bless.

If it makes you happy see it as you're helping a lot of people fulfil their dreams. Also I'm not sure God concerns himself with all that sort of thing because in the end you happen to think hard and deep about what you're doing and you're not hurting anyone or yourself in the process. You guys worry too much about religion that you have no room for morality. Religion doesn't define who you are, they are set of rules and guidelines on how to live. But if you feel you're committing a sin then please by all means resign.

Freelance is doing people's job and they pay for it.
If they use you as the material source of their project there is nothing wrong in it.

One may have the required years of experience but do not know how to write a cv is your job to make their cv look professional. Lawyers do this, politicians does, etc.
Most organization survive on lies so if you leave this, which organization will you go to? Even most churches foundation are based on lies. You r no saint.

Do what you enjoy doing

I am a writer.

I offer writing services in return for payment. I also write research works like you do..and some other jobs on content writing. Legally, some scholars argue it is academic fraud.

Another school of thought argues it's simply working for money and freelancing must always include working for an who doesn't have the time to do it. There's also a disclaimer. You write!


Freelancing is present in virtually all sectors!

The true sins here is not so obvious because the whole world does it...so it will be hard to even convince you of it.. undecided

25 The people found Jesus on the other side of the lake. They asked him, “Teacher, when did you come here?”

26 He answered, “Why are you looking for me? Is it because you saw miraculous signs? The truth is, you are looking for me because you ate the bread and were satisfied.
27 But earthly food spoils and ruins. So don’t work to get that kind of food. But work to get the food that stays good and gives you eternal life. The Son of Man will give you that food. He is the only one qualified by God the Father to give it to you.”

28 The people asked Jesus, “What does God want us to do?”

29 Jesus answered, “The work God wants you to do is this: to believe in the one he sent.” .... John 6 vs 25 - 33
You are still working for food for spoils instead of laboring instead for food that endures to eternity meaning you are still subject to the curse/condemnation of Sin which Jesus Christ came to grant us salvation from. That is your biggest issue since no one who is subject to the curse can enter the presence of God. undecided
