Reasons Not to Use
Profanity
Profanity has become so common that many no
longer consider it objectionable. It is printed in
papers, used on camera, spoken in mixed company by
both sexes, and used in the presence of children, as if
God does not object. He does. God’s name is not to
be treated irreverently.
God forbade the ancient Israelites’ taking His
name in vain. “You shall not take the name of the
Lord your God in vain, for the Lord will not hold him
guiltless who takes His name in vain” (Exodus 20:7).
God’s name is holy and reverend; it is to be
respected. “Holy and awesome is His name” (Psalm
111:9).
God’s name is to be hallowed. Jesus said, “In
this manner, therefore, pray: Our Father in heaven,
hallowed be Your name” (Matthew 6:9). The Greek
word hagiazo means: “to set apart from common use”
(Berry).
God’s name and His doctrine are not to be
blasphemed (1 Timothy 6:1). It may surprise you to
know that profanity is more common in so-called
Christian America than in heathen countries. Idolaters
often have greater reverence for their false gods than
some persons do for the true and living God.
A missionary was returning from India with his small
son who had never been to America. One day an
American on deck was using profuse profanity. The
missionary said to him, “Sir, my boy was born and
brought up in a land of idolatry, but in all his life he has
never heard a man blaspheme his Maker until now.”
The New Testament forbids a person’s using
profanity by command and principle (Ephesians
4:29; Colossians 3:8). As Christ is a member of the
Godhead (Colossians 2:9; Matthew 28:19), His mane
is not to be taken in vain.
Children should be taught not to use profanity
(Proverbs 22:6; Ephesians 6:4).
To use profanity in the presence of persons who
object to it is to manifest a lack of respect for them
(Matthew 7:12).
To sin, a person does not have to say the obscene
words orally. He can use profanity in his heart even
as he can commit adultery (Matthew 5:28) or
murder (1 John 3:15) in his heart (see Matthew 9:4;
Proverbs 23:7).
“Let the words of my mouth and the meditation
of my heart be acceptable in Your sight, O Lord”
(Psalm 19:14). -Eris Benson (adapted)
Via House to House:Heart to Heart (Vol. 23, No. 9)
