Ministry of the Word: God teaches us to swear godly oaths

• We might look at this today and think it does not apply to us. Who takes oaths any more? Maybe in court as a witness only, right...?

1. He swears by His own name

• God makes it clear to us that the promises He has made are completely dependable.
• God's promises to us come with an oath God has sworn to us.

2. He wants us to swear by His name

• God wants our oaths to have meaning.
• God does not want us to lie to one another.
• God wants our oaths and vows to have meaning.
