I have not looked at Apostle Malm's, "Glowering Darkness" blog for a few days now. It is always such a hoot to get back to reading some of the silliness that makes his blog.
Today a person admitted she/he quit their job at Payless Shoes because they were selling shoes made of pork leather. I am so glad Apostle Malm is an authority on EVERYTHING! How would we exist in this evil polluted world with out the magnificent instruction from our beloved Apostle?
I know I have asked a similar question, but I used to work at Payless and then after I left it hit me: was I selling some leather that was from swine? I recently have an opportunity to work at a supermarket that respects the Sabbath. But I can’t help but think that they sell pork products and I will be working the cash register. Is this somehow supporting it? Like selling what I myself wouldn’t buy? Is it wrong to work there? I have been looking for a job for some time now with no luck, either because of the Sabbath or other issues.
It is the store that is selling the product not you. You are just working for that company and as long as you are not involved in becoming unclean through the cutting of the pork etc then you may work for that company. If we could not work for sinners we would need to be taken out of this world altogether. We are IN this world: We are not OF this world and are to keep ourselves personally unspotted by its wickedness. We can work for a store that sells pork in the same way that we can work for a man who curses; that is their problem and not ours unless we begin to sin as well.
