USING GOD'S NAME IN VAIN BY STEVE FINNELL

Is taking God's name in vain confined to swearing an oath or cursing using God's name? Is not using God's name in a flippant, glib or profane manner using God's name in vain? 

Is using God as a character of a joke, not using God's name in vain? Too many Christians believe God is great joke material.

Exodus 20:7 "You shall not take the name of the Lord your God in vain, for the Lord will not leave him unpunished who takes His name in vain. (NASB)

Exodus 20:7 "Never use the name of the Lord your God carelessly. The Lord will make sure that anyone who carelessly uses his name will be punished.(GOD'S WORD Translation (1995)

Exodus 20:7 "You shall not misuse the name of the Lord your God, for the Lord will not hold anyone guiltless who misuses his name. (NIV 1984)

Matthew 6:9 ....Our Father....Hallowed be Your name.

GOD'S NAME IS HOLY!
