I hear it all the time.. at work and at home.. My mom knows how I feel about it.. but she still does it.. actually she does it more.. now that she knows.. It makes me upset.. I know Im not perfect.. Im no better then anyone.. or her.. I just don't like hearing it.. He is my everything.. and to use his name in such a bad.. makes me feel very upset.. its affects just as it would effect me.. when someone would talk bad about someone I love.. Jesus is my best friend.. and it hurts to hear such words like that...
Then I get call Hollier then thou... when I ask them to stop.. and then get treated like.. Im wrong for telling.. them what to do..
When I was young.. I was all into.. the bad things.. the devil.. all kinds of stuff.. I dont think I ever worshiped him or anything.. I knew I always loved Jesus.. but wasnt very much understanding.. about him.. I went through a depression.. wore black.. obsessed with death.. terrified of it.. and my Mom.. was always.. so into Jesus.. and always told me about how what I was doing was the devils work.. now when Im all about him.. shes all against it..
I guess I can never win with her.. but hey.. no matter what she does.. this time.. she wont take my faith away.. and my love for Jesus...
Everytime she says those words though.. it makes me so mad

Well, you have to remember what it means to take the Lord's name in vain. It's not cussing (although I don't codone it). It's really hard to describe what it means... don't use his name frivolously. Like saying, "I haven't been to class, but since we are best buds and all... can you teach me the course, tonight."
You know what... I can't describe what I am trying to say. Sorry.

I think I know what you're trying to say. I don't interpret "taking God's name in vain" as being "cussing," such as the "G" "D" phrase, or others. I see it as taking advantage of God's love, like doing things that work against God's love. You're right... it is hard to describe.

I think I might get what you are saying.. What I was saying.. some people out of anger.. say the Lord's name with a cuss word at the end.. the G D thing... I dont like that.. and when they are made they say Jesus Christ..
Thats mainly what I was talking about!!! Was that what you were talking about?

Yeah, pretty deep huh?
I always used to wonder why God would use one of the ten commandments on cussing... seemed really odd. Then my pastor explained that He didn't, it just gets interpreted like that.

Cursing is completly wrong in any way shape or form. I do it occationally and I kick myself when I do. It's terrible and offensive, especially when one takes the Lord's name in vain.
