Subject: More about the 3rd commandment please? |
Bible Note: Good answer, inmyheart! Others verses that do not tell specifically not to use the lord's name in vain are Romans 13:14 and 1Cor. 6:17. If we put on Christ, we will talk as He talked - or do our best. and if our bodies of temples of the Holy Spirit, what comes out of our mouths should not be demeaning to the name of the Lord. I had a problem with this at one time, commonly heard sayings, like "Oh my God", that was not meant as a prayer and pieces and changes in the Lords name, like "Geez" and "Gosh". It did take time in the Word, repentence - lots -, help from the Holy Spirit and time. Old habits can be hard to break. Peace- Debbie |
