What does it mean to use the Lord’s name in vain? Does this refer simply to using God’s name as a swear word, or does it apply more broadly to our speech? How does our own vanity lead us to use God’s name in vain? Do our words and actions cohere with our affirmations of God’s name? This episode discusses the third commandment, "Thou shall not take the Lord’s name in vain. "

This We Believe is brought to you by Lexham Press, publisher of Dr. Niebauer’s forthcoming book Four Mountains: Encountering God in the Bible from Eden to Zion.

Learn how God uses symbols like wood, water, and fire to stitch together the Old and New Testaments, and discover how these symbols draw us up into the very life of Christ. Four Mountains can be read by individuals or as part of church Bible studies and Christian education classes.
