Blasphemy?

We see and hear it almost everyday...



You see it on TV, hear it in your classrooms or at work.



You read about it, you hear it on the radio, see it in your local news and in movies...



But... "What is blasphemy?"

Heres a quick defenition

blas·phe·my  [blas-fuh-mee]


1. A contemptuous or profane act, utterance, or writing concerning God or a sacred entity.

2. The act of claiming for oneself the attributes and rights of God.


3. An irreverent or impious act, attitude, or utterance in regard to something considered inviolable or sacrosanct.


So with that being said...

What does the Bible say about blasphemy?

What are the consequences of blasphemy and why do people do it?

And...

What is our role when it comes to blasphemy in our society? (As Christians)

  1. Our role as Christians is to educate the ones who stand and do nothing while this occurs, because while they are standing there motionless they themselves are apart of the act.,
