As far as go out to eat; are you encouraging people to break the sabbath by your partaking of that which they offer on the sabbath day?
Well, I think so. When we go out to eat we are causing people to work on the Sabbath.

"I want to assist churches and to assist pastors in training pastors. But, after fourteen years of service in this capacity, I am absolutely certain that the finest theological seminary on earth is absolutely incompetent at replicating the actual life of a Gospel congregation. I want to train a generation of pastors who will train pastors, and I want to help them in that task." --- Dr. R. Albert Mohler, President of THE Southern Baptist Theological Seminary, Louisville, KY
