Taking His Name in Vain: A Conversation on the Third Commandment

Taking His Name in Vain: A Conversation on the Third Commandment

Pierre Viret

Read Download
What does it mean to take God’s name in vain? Why is this the only command with a curse and no blessing attached? What is required to fulfill this commandment in heart as well as in deed? How does the third commandment apply to oaths and vows?

Whether it’s a matter of honoring God by using His name rightly or falsely sanctifying His name by deception or abuse, the subject of God and His name is a matter of utmost importance and gravity. Taking His Name in Vain plumbs the depths of the third commandment by considering the above questions as well as the subjects of false witnessing, employing God’s name as a talisman or by magic and sorcery, examining whether Christ forbids oaths, and what the proper reverence of God’s name entails.

Within this work Swiss Reformer Pierre Viret and his contemporary John Calvin delve into the meaning and applicability of God’s command for the hallowing of His holy name. Offering practical insight and profound application of Scriptural wisdom, the reader will find their writings provide a solid Biblical foundation for those seeking a better understanding of the meaning, depth, and implications of the third commandment.
