Bible Note: Yes, it is. It is not legalist to be concerned about how His name is abused. It is part of our culture's normal language ... most do not care. But, if we would abuse Allah'a, Buddah's name, for example ... their followers would not tolerate it. We need to do what God wants and teach people what is correct, with tact. I believe I have. I also believe you need to ask for forgiveness ... most of all from God. Searcher |
