In this episode, we dig deeper into the theology behind the Third Commandment, "Thou shalt not take the name of the Lord thy God in vain." Moving beyond mere cursing, we discuss the mystery and holiness of God’s self-revelation as the transcendent "I AM" in Exodus. We connect the Old and New Testaments by identifying Jesus Christ as the embodiment of this divine name, through whom we all find salvation and adoption into God's family. We wrap up the episode with some practical ways to honor the Lord’s name and the importance of reverent liturgical worship, such as bowing at the name of Jesus, and encouraging all Christians to reflect God's holiness in their everyday lives.
