The second commandment, "You shall not make wrongful use of the name of the Lord” teaches us that God is only about good and love; to respect God’s name; do not use God’s name in vain because God has high authority; God’s name should be kept holy; and to only use God’s name in a good and loving way. Why is this an important message for today's world? and Why is this message a challenge to today's culture and values?

Well, think about it, if you use God's name in vain, you are pretty much cussing God. And in return He will punish you. Love Him and use His name in a loving way and He will rejoice in you.
But to most, the things in today's world come before God and they lose sight of Him and His word.

We should not mock God who can save us. It is the eternity choice. As we have many choices here on the earth, we have only two choices what comes to eternity: hell or heaven...or with or without God...I chose to be with God.

Because people tend to take the Lords name in blasphemy, which is wrong

god seems to have many names, just depends on who you are and where you are from. of course i believe and worship the one true god, the god of abraham, issac and jacob, and my god has a name and i call him:
YAHVEH ELOHIM

Actually, what I would call holy, some would call blasphemy. So we are at a standstill.
