As they say in the military:As a few will remember - this is the actual topic of this thread --
The "much to be avoided topic" for "some"
=======================================================================
The TEN Commandments are included in the moral law of God written on the heart under the NEW Covenant.
Moral law of God -- that which "defines what sin is and what righteousness is" - as we see in Romans 7 and in Romans 3.
"I will write My LAW on their heart and mind" Jeremiah 31:31-33
"what matters is KEEPING the Commandments of God" 1 Cor 7:19
So then it is "still a sin" to take God's name in vain". Even for Christians.
"do we then make void the LAW of God by our faith? God forbid! In fact we ESTABLISH the LAW of God" Rom 3:31
"the saints KEEP the Commandments of God AND their faith in Jesus" Revelation 14:12
Ephesians 6:2 The 5th Commandment is the "FIRST commandment with a promise" in what unit of law?
Answer -- in that still-valid unit-of-TEN.
So then even for born-again Christians -- it is a sin to take God's name in vain.
