Exo 20:7 Thou shalt not take the name of the LORD thy God in vain; for the LORD will not hold him guiltless that taketh his name in vain.
Our pastor during his sermon this morning mentioned this text and said the concept of using the name of God as a curse word was not what this text has in mind at all, but rather it is referring to anyone who takes the Lord's name as to whom he belongs, and then misuses it through conduct and doctrine. I think this is a great way to look at this passage. Any other thoughts?
