The Second Commandment

The Second Commandment:
You shall not misuse the name of the LORD your God.

What does this mean?
We should fear and love God that we do not use his name to curse, swear, lie or deceive, or use it superstitiously, but call upon God’s name in every trouble, pray, praise, and give thanks.


Dear Grandpa,
I’m confused. We started a unit on dinosaurs today in biology. “For over 160 million years dinosaurs ruled the world” was how the teacher began the lesson. At first I thought, “I’ve heard all this before, and I know it’s not true.” But here’s what confused me: The teacher is a Christian. She’s really into her church. We’ve talked about how cool it is to have Jesus as our Savior. I’ve looked up to her. So, is it okay to be a Christian who believes in evolution?
I love you,
Denali
