That will do much harm to one's Christian witness. Liquor stores also provide easy access to those who abuse alcohol. These two things alone present a colossal problem for a Christian. Ephesians 5:18 tells us not to be drunk with wine (alcohol) where is in excess but be filled with the Holy Spirit. This is speaking of moderation. Titus 2 11-13 says, "For the grace of God that brings salvation has appeared to all men. Training us to renounce ungodliness and worldly passions, and to live self-controlled, upright, and godly lives in the present age, looking for the blessed hope and glorious appearing of our great God and Savior, Jesus Christ."
God wants Christians to live a sober life. He does not want us to be a stumbling block to our neighbor Romans 4:21 says, "It is not good to eat meat or drink wine or do anything that causes your brother to stumble."
I believe that a Christian should not entertain the idea of owning a liquor store.
