WRITTEN BY: DILLON


Today’s topic is a subject that many people overlook…. Blasphemy. Blasphemy is the act of taking the lords name in vain, weather it’s by using Gods name as a curse word, or by professing to be a Christian but not living up to Gods requirements of salvation. We all have blasphemed the name of the lord at one point in our lives. (Not that its acceptable) but in this generation, it has become a routine, if not our culture itself to curse the name of the lord who gave us life. Everyday, I hear people say “Jesus Christ” in a matter to express anger. Weather it’s to express anger, or to be funny, saying the name of the lord in a fashion other then to give praise, or to converse about faith is unholy and unrighteous in the eyes of the lord. When you have to face God on Judgment Day, and you have not accepted Jesus Christ as your personal lord and savior, then God will not excuse or forgive you for your blasphemy, or any other sin for that matter. Answer this question? What reasons would a just God have for saving a soul who has taken his name in vain, but has not acknowledged his sin & earnestly repented and asked for forgiveness? The answer is quite simple… he wont. And why should he. God has already displayed his amazing love and willingness to forgive by sending his one and only son to die on the cross for our sins. Through the death and resurrection of Jesus Christ, we have the chance to receive eternal life. Think about it, Jesus was willing to be beaten, tortured, and brutally murdered to ensure eternal life to those who are willing to set aside their problems, repent, turn from sin, and trust Jesus alone as their personal lord and savior. A question I personally would like answered is why anyone in their right mind would even think, let alone to curse the name of the lord who gave them life? You may have problems persevering when the trials & tribulations of everyday life are seemingly to difficult to bear. But you must remember that someone always has it worse. While you enjoy the luxuries of sight, sound, taste, touch, smell, which are all gifts given to you on behalf of the lord, all around you people suffer from starvation, poverty, abandonment, life threatening diseases. They lack the very things that you take for granted on a day to day bases, yet even through there trials & tribulations they find every reason to give God praise, while you still find it necessary to curse God for giving you all his wonderful blessings. For some strange reason, people find it adequate to curse the God who gave them life, yet in everyway possible, many people give satin all the glory through living in their sin. All God wants is for you to put your faith in Jesus Christ, who was willing to give his life so you could be forgiven and receive eternal life. But in the end the choice is yours. Think of it like this. You’re the proud parent of a child. You bless your child with gifts of all shapes and sizes. You provide food on his plate, water to drink, a roof over his head, and all the love you could possibly give. Despite your sacrifices and strides to provide your child with a wonderful life, he turns around, spits in your face, and curses your name while at the same time disrespecting you in every way imaginable. How would that make you feel? He’s your child, so you love him. But like any responsible parent, you punish him because of his actions. This is the case with Jesus Christ. He came to die on the cross for YOUR sins. Yet even after displaying his love in a way that no one else could, you think its ok to curse him. God doesn’t take blasphemy as easily as many people do. God himself said that he will not let anyone who blasphemes his name enter into his kingdom. And he will cast those who take his name in vain into the lake of fire. That is were transgressors like blasphemers will spend eternity, If they don’t accept Jesus Christ as your lord and savior and receive forgiveness. I’m letting you know this before it’s too late because sooner or later, every single person will face God and be judged according to his/her actions. There are only two places to go… heaven and hell. If you take the name of the lord in vain without receiving Christ forgiveness, were do you think you’ll go. God does not want to send you to hell. He loves you more then you could ever know. He loved you before you were born, and he brought you into the world hoping that you would serve him through the great commission of Christ. But don’t mistake Gods kindness for weakness. God is holy & just, and he will judge you according to your thoughts and actions. It’s your choice were you spend eternity. If you end up being cast into the lake of fire, remember that you’re suffering for your own wrongdoings, not God’s. God gives you the choice to believe and have everlasting life. But it’s up to you to receive his gift. So in the end, you’re the only one who will pay the price, not God. So get on your knees, accept Jesus Christ as your personal lord and savior. Repent of your sins with true sincerity, and you won’t have to suffer. Christ will pay your bail, and you can enjoy the eternal life he promised to reward to all those that love him.
