We are saved in the power of the Lord’s name. Acts 2:21 states that “… everyone who calls upon the name of the Lord shall be saved.” It is the name of the one who has made all things, controls all things, and has saved us as His people. This is why we should not say flippant things using the name of God. It should be a name that is respected and honored when it comes from our lips. Sometimes this commandment gets condensed down to just being against “G— D—“, but it is much more than just that one phrase. It is the totality of how we use the name of our Lord.
