Luther's Small Catechism

The 2nd Commandment

You shall not misuse the name of the Lord your God.

This week we examine the second commandment and explanation from Luther's Small Catechism.

You shall not misuse the name of the Lord your God.
What does this mean?
We should fear and love God so that we do not curse, swear, use satanic arts, lie, or deceive by His name, but call upon it in every trouble, pray, praise, and give thanks.
