Ten CommandmentsSteve Gregg

Steve Gregg discusses the relevance of the third commandment, which instructs to hold the name of God sacred.

He emphasizes the importance of treating God's name with reverence and notes that blasphemies are among the things that come from a wicked heart. Gregg encourages Christians to show respect for God and his name in their worship.
