Ten // In The Name




Grace Chapel Church Podcast | Franklin, TN show

Summary: In Part 4, Pastor Rob covers the third commandment - You shall not take the name of the Lord your God in vain. As one of the most misunderstood commandments, Pastor Rob shares that while it certainly means that we should not use God's name flippantly or irreverently, it is so much more than that. If we look at it only from that perspective, our obedience becomes about the rule itself rather than why the rule was created. The third commandment is also telling us to not put God's "stamp of approval" on something that God has absolutely nothing to do with – don't leverage the name of God for your selfish purposes. Are there things in your life that you know God is not pleased with and you know it’s sin and you know that God knows it is sin, but you’re using the grace and forgiveness of God as a way to excuse your sin?
