Willemina,

I think it would be more accurate to say that the Lord hasn't worked in all His children in this regard to the same extent nor at the exact same place in their walk. Thus there are varying degrees of "sensitivity" according to the Spirit's working of sanctification in them. Personally, I cannot say that "Oh my word!" qualifies as that which violates the Third Commandment, in and of itself, although the heart of the one who uttered that phrase may indeed be in violation of it. <img src="/forum/images/graemlins/wink.gif" alt="" />

Here is a wonderful sermon by Rev. G. Van Reenen on The Third Commandment which brings out the depth and spirituality of that commandment and how it is to be applied.

In His grace,
