I have a question for confessional sabbaterians only:
If a church meets at a government school, and this requires that a janitor work on the Sabbath (the school requires this, not the church). I consider this a violation of the Sabbath; what do you think? It appears that the church is a knowledgeable accessory to the sin. Would you agree?
Second, is a pastor making 1/2 of his fellow pastors (say, in his same Prebytery) muzzling the ox, if that is all that a church can afford with the current tithe?
Third, which is the greater sin: making the janitor work on the Sabbath, or muzzling the ox (if you think a 1/2 wage of the fellow pastors is a muzzling)?
Thanks!
