### Heidelberg Catechism #99

Q. What is the aim of the third commandment?

A. That we neither blaspheme nor misuse the name of God

by cursing,1

perjury,2

or unnecessary oaths,3

nor share in such horrible sins

by being silent bystanders.4

In summary, we should use the holy name of God

only with reverence and awe,5

so that we may properly confess God,6
pray to God,7
and glorify God in all our words and works.8
