Defended Jesus Name and Got a Nice Reply From a Youtube Content Maker
« on: May 14, 2022, 09:37:15 AM »
A popular Youtube sketch maker called out Jesus name in exasperation and like I always do when that happens I called him out on it.  This time I got a good response!

Here is the conversation.  (Note: He didn't use the "F" word, I just referenced it as an example to get the point across.)


Me:
Love you guys but really, WHY BLASPHEME JESUS?  Why not exclaim "F-ing Buddah!" or "F-ing Mohammed"??? 

Could there be something to that?

Personally, I'm offended by those who take my Lord's name in vain.

Offend somebody else for a refreshing change.



Him:  
I agree. When I rewatch our videos I wish I hadn't. I didn't have a relationship with God or Jesus back then. I'm on the path now.




Me:    Thanks!  I appreciate your reply.  God Bless!

I noticed that my mother has taken God’s name in vain.  I corrected her more than once.  Good job, Miser.

I remember saying omg.  My beloved mother in law corrected me and taught me.

Thanks, Viva. 

I just wanted to share because sometimes I'm tempted to not bother since "it won't do any good" or feel that "fear of man's opinion" embarrassment.  

So this guys response was encouraging!

We Catholics have cowered way too much for way too long.

I've made the same correction as well. Its now oh my goodness, if anything. A good practice is to make reparation when you hear others blaspheme

When I hear blasphemy, I vocally turn it into a blessing, both to repair, and to correct the person.  Jesus Christ...is The Name Above All Names, or, Is My Lord and Savior, or, Died for Our Sins.
Or G.D. ...is what He did to the fig tree when it bore no fruit, let that be a warning to us.  Etc, you get the idea.  It is a very direct way of addressing the blasphemy and the blasphemer without giving any room for conflict or retort.  It always silences them.  I do it all the time, automatic reaction at this point without missing a beat.  It's a very successful approach.
