Be Careful with God's Name

Exodus 20:7

Sermon Series: The Ten Commandments (Exodus 20:1-17)

Theme: Honoring the name of God

Point: Our lips and lives must reflect the unique honor God's holy name deserves.

Outline:

  1. The prohibition against misusing God's name.
    While this commandment does forbid blasphemy, profanity, and perjury; there are other ways we can be guilty of taking God's name in vain:
    1. Irreverence.
    2. False teaching.
    3. The presumption of direct revelation.
    4. Promise-breaking.
  2. The penalty for misusing God's name.
    Here are three ways we can honor the name of God:
    1. Honor God's name by confessing Jesus Christ to be the Savior and Lord of your life.
    2. Honor God's name by living your life in a manner that is consistent with your profession of faith.
    3. Honor God's name by speaking well of it whenever you get a chance.
