I think that is a little off target.
What the Bible says is:
"Now concerning spiritual gifts, brethren, I do not want you to be unaware.
You know that when you were pagans, you were led astray to the mute idols, however you were led.
Therefore I make known to you that no one speaking by the Spirit of God says, "Jesus is accursed"; and no one can say, "Jesus is Lord," except by the Holy Spirit. "
The idea behind this verse is that no one speaking prophetically under the influence of a spirit can confess Jesus as Lord except by the Holy Spirit of God. No demon will confess Jesus as Lord. (I Corinthians 12:1-3)

I read a book by Jennifer Kennedy Dean titled "The life saving power in the name of Jesus' and she explains that only a child of God can take the Lords name in vain.Because we are his children we are the only ones who can call him Father.
When the unsaved say the G.D. word they are not saying their fathers name they are only saying a word.
So your right only the saved can take the lords name in vain.
To everybody who is still of this world it's only profanity.
Until the crucifiction of Christ we did not have the Holy Spirit in which to call upon God or communicate with him.
That's why we needed prophets.
God communicated to us through the prophets.
As a result of Jesus once and for all sacrafice we were given the Holy spirit thus canceling the need for prophets
It is only by his Grace and Mercy he did this for us so through him we could have a direct link to God through the Holy Spirit.
Only his children know him and can curse his name
To everyone else it's just a word.

The English word "God" is NOT the name of the Divine
Grace, but rather, a word that denotes God. Thus, to use
the word "God" does not mean one is using that word in
vain. The Great Architech of the Universe has many names
that defines the Divine Virtues that are revealed to mankind.
Jesus the Christ of Nazareth, Son of Mary the Spouse of
Holy Spirit, had a divine existence indeed; however, his
divine status and existence differ from individual to
individual.
"Judge not others, least ye be judged and guilty."

Since you don't resolve your old questions, this is the last time I'm giving you any answer.
The following is true:
It is arrogant for a human to think that they could possibly know anything about God.
Speaking for God is blasphemy.
Jesus was human.
You are using this site as a pulpit, and not actually asking a question, which is the reason why you don't resolve your old questions.
Capitalizing every word is annoying and unnecessary.

You really talk utter rubbish...All the time!!!!This is what your bible of hate teaches on the subject.......
Death for Blasphemy
One day a man who had an Israelite mother and an Egyptian father got into a fight with one of the Israelite men. During the fight, this son of an Israelite woman blasphemed the LORD's name. So the man was brought to Moses for judgment. His mother's name was Shelomith. She was the daughter of Dibri of the tribe of Dan. They put the man in custody until the LORD's will in the matter should become clear. Then the LORD said to Moses, "Take the blasphemer outside the camp, and tell all those who heard him to lay their hands on his head. Then let the entire community stone him to death. Say to the people of Israel: Those who blaspheme God will suffer the consequences of their guilt and be punished. Anyone who blasphemes the LORD's name must be stoned to death by the whole community of Israel. Any Israelite or foreigner among you who blasphemes the LORD's name will surely die. (Leviticus 24:10-16 NLT)

Just as our birth is the beginning of our earthly life, so too is our baptism the beginning of our spiritual life. And just as a baby needs physical nourishment, so do we need spiritual nourishment if we want to grow up and become mature believers.
As Catholics, we understand that sacramental baptism in the name of the Father, Son, and Holy Spirit is the means by which we are born from above (Catechism of the Catholic Church, 1262-1270). Every Easter, in fact, the church asks believers to renew their baptismal promises as a way of reminding ourselves of what it is that we have received and how we have received it. By renewing these promises, too, we have a regular opportunity to embrace and deepen the grace that we received when we were baptized. It is our opportunity to confess that baptism is not the end but the beginning of our faith journey.

Nope not what it means, for Jesus said; many who say lord, lord we have done this in your name; he will say I know you not. In order to know the lord God the holy Ghost will have to give you a sure knowledge in your heart Jesus is the true savior. I wish you the best luck in finding the truth.

No, its not true. Even the Israelies, when they were on their forty year punishment march, met a group of people who God told the marchers to leave alone because he had an agreement with them, so your seeking of uniquness is vanity. God knows who has an agreement with him, and who doesn't.

You actually believe God dictated that, word for word, to some stenographer who immediately put it down to writing. All that hooey seems utterly paganistic and nonsense to me, so I'll say...no. None of that is true.
