      Please quote the Scripture which tells us not to write out God's names.

      Chapter and verse.

      Thank you.

        Wait a minute... you mean to tell me that all this time he was typing "G**" but he meant "God"?

        Now it all makes sense!

          What blasphemy? You're the one ignoring what the Bible says.

          I'll give that some people have valid (to them) reasons for preferring a different translation of the Bible than the King James, so let's look at some of the other versions of Exodus 34:14.

          New International Version (©1984)
          Do not worship any other god, for the LORD, whose name is Jealous, is a jealous God.

          New Living Translation (©2007)
          You must worship no other gods, for the LORD, whose very name is Jealous, is a God who is jealous about his relationship with you.

          English Standard Version (©2001)
          (for you shall worship no other god, for the LORD, whose name is Jealous, is a jealous God),


          New American Standard Bible (©1995)
          -- for you shall not worship any other god, for the LORD, whose name is Jealous, is a jealous God--


          King James Bible (Cambridge Ed.)
          For thou shalt worship no other god: for the LORD, whose name is Jealous, is a jealous God:


          King James 2000 Bible (©2003)
          For you shall worship no other god: for the LORD, whose name is Jealous, is a jealous God:


          American King James Version
          For you shall worship no other god: for the LORD, whose name is Jealous, is a jealous God:


          American Standard Version
          for thou shalt worship no other god: for Jehovah, whose name is Jealous, is a jealous God:


          Douay-Rheims Bible
          Adore not any strange god. The Lord his name is Jealous, he is a jealous God.



          Darby Bible Translation
          For thou shalt worship no other ùGod; for Jehovah Jealous is his name is a jealous ùGod;


          English Revised Version
          for thou shalt worship no other god: for the LORD, whose name is Jealous, is a jealous God:


          Webster's Bible Translation
          For thou shalt worship no other god: for the LORD, whose name is Jealous, is a jealous God:


          World English Bible
          for you shall worship no other god: for Yahweh, whose name is Jealous, is a jealous God

          So what is God's Name (according to the Bible, not you), and why do you refuse to use it?

              Exodus 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."

              As I learned earlier in life, the only occasions when using the Lord's name isn't in vain are prayer, worship and the Sacred Scriptures themselves.

              However, if "God" offends you, I will address Him as "Lord" from now on, since I don't want to sin.

                It doesn't offend ME, friend, but I am a simple Christian man and I appreciate it when people spell things out clearly and unambiguously. For all anyone knows you mean "Gay" when you type "G**". We get a lot of anal rapists and phallus worshipers from the 4chan here, so we cannot just assume you worship God unless you say so.

                Now that I know what you mean, I will bear it in mind.

                  You read, but you do not understand.

                  To take His name in vain is not to SAY it. It is to falsely swear by it; to commit perjury.

                  For an alternative view, see here:

                  The world's attitude toward God is often shaped by the lifestyles of those who bear His name. How many immoral and idolatrous lives were changed by the good influence of the Apostles' lives! The apostles understood the importance of holy living. They knew that unbelievers are influenced by the conduct of those who are called by the name of the Lord, either to reverence or disdain him. They were adamant that the church live so "that the name of our God and his doctrine be not blasphemed" (1Tim.6:1). Jesus demonstrated this same concern when he said, "Let your light so shine before men, that they may see your good works, and glorify your Father which is in heaven" (Mt.5:16).
                  In that author's opinion, "taking" His name is equivalent to "bearing" His name; in other words, if you call yourself Christian, then go out whoring and carousing, you have taken His name in vain and made Him (and Christianity) look bad.

                  In no case is "taking the Lord's name in vain" understood by anyone with an ounce of discernment to mean "saying 'God'".

                    Do you mean Revelation? What's your favourite part of Revelation?

                    What makes you think that God is the name being referred to there?
                    O Lord our God, help us to tear their soldiers to bloody shreds with our shells; help us to cover their smiling fields with the pale forms of their patriot dead; help us to drown the thunder of the guns with the shrieks of their wounded, writhing in pain; help us to lay waste their humble homes with a hurricane of fire; help us to wring the hearts of their unoffending widows with unavailing grief; help us to turn them out roofless with little children to wander unfriended the wastes of their desolated land in rags and hunger and thirst, sports of the sun flames of summer and the icy winds of winter, broken in spirit, worn with travail, imploring Thee for the refuge of the grave and denied it--for our sakes who adore Thee, Lord, blast their hopes, blight their lives, protract their bitter pilgrimage, make heavy their steps, water their way with their tears, stain the white snow with the blood of their wounded feet! We ask it, in the spirit of love, of Him Who is the Source of Love, and Who is the ever-faithful refuge and friend of all that are sore beset and seek His aid with humble and contrite hearts. Amen.



                    God being truth, justice, goodness, beauty, power, and life, man is falsehood, iniquity, evil, ugliness, impotence, and death. God being master, man is the slave. Incapable of finding justice, truth, and eternal life by his own effort, he can attain them only through a divine revelation... he who desires to worship God must harbor no childish illusions about the matter, but bravely renounce his liberty and humanity.
