Sin is "No Big Deal"

It is funny that back in the 1800's if someone was to use God's name in any other manner except to praise that people would get offended, mad, and do something about it. But thanks to the invention of the TV Satan has won a major battle because sin has become common place. There is no shock factor because we have become desensitized to it. We can watch a movie where they show a rape, killing, cussing, and above all using the infamouse GD and it is no big deal. Our friends and those around us say GD with out hesitating as it was no big deal. Well, I ask you.....Is it no big deal? I mean who does it hurt? Well, it hurts you. God very clearly tells us that we should not use our Lords name in vain. Those include but are not limited to "I swear to .......; G......D.....; As G.... is my witness" and anything else you bring up God or Jesus in any manner other than to bring glory and praise to Him. Think of it this way. Your life is like a plain white peace of paper. Everytime you use God's name in vain you tear a peice off, everytime you lie you tear a peice off, everytime you commit a sin and say "it's no big deal." you tear a peice off. After a while what is left? You have torn your self to peices and have no purpose left except to be a pile of peices of paper that just get thrown away. We must not be affraid to correct those around us that swear with the Lord's name. We would be doing them a favor. The day is comming when we have to answer for our sins. Are we going to be a clean peice of paper or a pile of garbage? The choice is yours!
