Is the Third Commandment Just About Profanity? - Commandment 3 of 10

In this third installment of our Ten Commandments Series, we dive deep into the sacred charge given in Exodus 20:7 — “Thou shalt not take the name of the LORD thy God in vain”. What does it truly mean to take God’s Name in vain? Is it merely about profanity, or is there a deeper, more sobering reality at hand?

Join us as we uncover the ancient Hebrew understanding of this command, expose modern-day misuses, and explore how bearing the Name of Yahweh is not only a responsibility but a covenantal calling. This is about more than just profanity — it’s about walking in integrity, reverence, and holiness.

We will examine what “in vain” really means in the original text, explore the weight of bearing Yahweh’s name as His people, look at common misconceptions and traditions, and learn about scriptural warnings and promises tied to His Name.

Whether you're a lifelong believer or just beginning your walk, this teaching will challenge you, stir your spirit, and draw you into deeper awe of the One whose Name is above all names. So join us as we learn the God Honest Truth about taking Yahweh’s name in vain.

Don’t forget to like, comment, and share if you’re blessed by the teaching. Subscribe for the rest of the series and more God Honest Truth content rooted in Scripture, spoken with boldness and clarity.

God Honest Truth is a Messianic Ministry based in Western North Carolina. Our goal is to teach the truths of Yahweh’s word to anyone seeking to further their education and walk in faith. We believe in the inerrancy of scripture and that scripture alone, not any church decree or any word of man, can define what is and is not salvation. We will always strive to do Biblical things in Biblical ways instead of allowing the traditions of men to get in the way of scripture.
