A Christian business owner is offered a lucrative contract on the condition that he pays a bribe to a local official. Refusing the bribe could mean losing the contract and laying off several employees, while accepting it would secure the jobs but violate his integrity. Using Christian ethical principles, decide what the owner should do and justify the decision with at least two biblical teachings.

Answer Options

Correct Answer A. He should refuse to pay the bribe; this upholds biblical integrity (Exodus 20:16, Matthew 5:37) and the command to love neighbour, avoiding the sin of corruption.
B. He should pay the bribe; this ensures the employees keep their jobs and aligns with the biblical principle of providing for one's family (1 Timothy 5:8).
C. He should negotiate a reduced bribe amount; this shows wise stewardship (Proverbs 21:5) while still satisfying the official.
D. He should accept the bribe and then give the money to the poor, invoking the biblical call to generosity (2 Corinthians 9:7).
