We look at the Third Commandment in both its positive and negative aspects. We see that, contrary to the general belief today, we can take God’s name in vain in many different ways and in many aspects of our lives. We see that there are punishments for those who break this command and blessings for those who keep it.
We are called upon to examine ourselves carefully in the light of this teaching and to turn from any ways in which we have been sinning against the Lord and not giving Him the honor that is due to His holy name.
