Bible Question:
Thanks for your response, Brad. I see you referred to two passages of scripture, one of which I had included in my original question and the other the verse in Deuteronomy referring to taking the name of the Lord in vain: Deu 5:11 "'You shall not take the name of the LORD your God in vain, for the LORD will not hold him guiltless who takes his name in vain." This section of scripture is, of course, a repetition of the ten commandments originally cited in the 20th chapter of Exodus. What does it mean to you to take the name of the Lord in vain? I agree with you that militaryman did a nice job of providing some of the names of God found in scripture, and I thank him also for his response. I take it that, since you wrote "I'd say we use the names that scripture itself uses for God," then you see no reason for the need to spell 'God' as 'G-d' as a way to avoid profaning His Name? blessings to you, halroy |
Bible Answer: people please dont fight about God or the way of spelling his name his name is exactly what it is....God no abbreveations.but the meaning of taking his name in vain is when used worthlessly.when used for no cause,in order to understand this correctly you must totally understand the importance of God's name.do you know that the jews back in the day and even some times now dont even say the word God or Jesus just to say it.it is a very sacared name and we are not to handle it lighttly either. |
