⁣Here on the next lesson of the Baltimore Catechism presented by the Ecu-Men, we cover the Second and Third Commandments, namely refraining from blasphemy & preserving the Lord’s Holy Day (Sunday). This stuff isn’t taught all that well these days, so find out how much you remember. Thanks for listening!

224. What is the second commandment of God?
Thou shalt not take the name of the Lord thy God in vain. (Exodus 20:7)

225. What are we commanded by the second commandment?
Always to speak with reverence of God, of the saints, and of holy things, and to be truthful in taking oaths and faithful to them and to our vows. (Psalm 112:2-3)

226. What is an oath?
An oath is the calling on God to witness the truth of what we say. (Hebrews 6:16)

227. What things are necessary to make an oath lawful?
Three things are necessary: first, we must have a good reason for taking an oath; second, we must be convinced that what we say under oath is true; third, we must not swear, that is, take an oath, to do what is wrong. (Jeremiah 4:2)

228. What great sin does a person commit who deliberately calls on God to bear witness to a lie?
The very grievous sin of perjury. (Leviticus 19:12)

229. What is a vow?
A deliberate promise made to God by which a person binds himself under pain of sin to do something that is especially pleasing to God. (Deuteronomy 23:21)

230. What is meant by taking God's name in vain?
That the name of God or the holy name of Jesus Christ is used without reverence; for example, to express surprise or anger. (Psalm 112:2-3)

231. Is it a sin to take God's name in vain?
Yes. It is a sin to take God's name in vain; ordinarily, it is a venial sin.

232. What is cursing?
Cursing is the calling down of some evil on a person, place, or thing. (Romans 12:14)

233. What is blasphemy?
Blasphemy is insulting language which expresses contempt for God, either directly or through His saints and holy things. (Mark 3:28-30)

234. What is the third commandment of God?
Remember thou keep holy the Lord's day. (Genesis 2:2)

235. Why does the Church command us to keep Sunday as the Lord's day?
Because on Sunday Christ rose from the dead, and on Sunday the Holy Ghost descended upon the apostles.

236. What are we commanded by the third commandment?
We are commanded to worship God in a special manner on Sunday, the Lord's day. (Exodus 31:14)

237. How does the Church command us to worship God on Sunday?
By assisting at the Holy Sacrifice of the Mass.

238. What is forbidden by the third commandment of God?
All unnecessary servile work on Sunday is forbidden. (Exodus 31:15)

239. What is servile work?
Servile work is that which requires labor of body rather than of mind.

240. When is servile work allowed on Sunday?
Servile work is allowed on Sunday when the honor of God, our own need, or that of our neighbor requires it.

⁣Here on the next lesson of the Baltimore Catechism presented by the Ecu-Men, we expand on the First Commandment as we talk about Honoring the Saints, Relics, & Images. We have many people who have come before us as examples for good behavior; and we have blessed objects from God which He has made good. There is a lot here on this interesting topic to cover. Thanks for listening!

214. Does the first commandment forbid us to honor the saints in heaven?
The first commandment does not forbid us to honor the saints in heaven, provided we do not give them the honor that belongs to God alone. (Luke 1:48)

215. Why do we honor the saints in heaven?
Because they practiced great virtue when they were on earth, and because in honoring those who are the chosen friends of God we honor God Himself.

216. How can we honor the saints?
We can honor the saints: first, by imitating their holy lives; second, by praying to them; third, by showing respect to their relics and images. (Philippians 3:17)

217. When we pray to the saints what do we ask them to do?
When we pray to the saints we ask them to offer their prayers to God for us.

218. How do we know that the saints will pray for us?
We know that the saints will pray for us because they are with God and have great love for us.

219. Why do we honor relics?
We honor relics because they are the bodies of the saints or objects connected with the saints or with Our Lord.

220. When does the first commandment forbid the making or the use of statues and pictures?
The first commandment forbids the making or the use of statues and pictures only when they promote false worship. (Exodus 20:3-4)

221. Is it right to show respect to the statues and pictures of Christ and of the saints?
It is right to show respect to the statues and pictures of Christ and of the saints, just as it is right to show respect to the images of those whom we honor or love on earth.

222. Do we honor Christ and the saints when we pray before the crucifix, relics, and sacred images?
We honor Christ and the saints when we pray before the crucifix, relics, and sacred images because we honor the persons they represent; we adore Christ and venerate the saints.

223. Do we pray to the crucifix or to the images and relics of the saints?
We do not pray to the crucifix or to the images and relics of the saints, but to the persons they represent.

198. What is the first commandment of God?
I am the Lord thy God; thou shalt not have strange gods before Me. (Exodus 20:3-4)

199. What are we commanded by the first commandment?
To offer to God alone the supreme worship that is due Him. (Luke 4:8)

200. How do we worship God?
By acts of faith, hope, and charity, and by adoring Him and praying to Him.

201. What does faith oblige us to do?
First, to make efforts to find out what God has revealed; second, to believe firmly what God has revealed; third, to profess our faith openly whenever necessary. (Matthew 10:32)

To trust firmly that God will give us eternal life and the means to obtain it. (Titus 1:1-2)

To love God above all things because He is infinitely good, and to love our neighbor as ourselves for the love of God. (Matthew 22:35-40)

204. How can a Catholic best safeguard his faith?
By making frequent acts of faith, by praying for a strong faith, by studying his religion very earnestly, by living a good life, by good reading, by refusing to associate with the enemies of the Church, and by not reading books and papers opposed to the Church and her teaching. (Acts 20:29-30)

205. How does a Catholic sin against faith?
By apostasy, heresy, indifferentism, and by taking part in non-Catholic worship.
