God’s name is kept holy when His Word is taught in its truth and purity, as we as children of God lead holy lives according to it. This is how a holy man kept a holy name holy: by teaching the truth and by living the truth.  Through Christ, we have no ‘dirty laundry’ to be ashamed of before God’s holy throne-Romans 8:1: There is therefore now no condemnation for those who are in Christ Jesus.

We need Jesus and God's Word to make atonement for our sins, to free us from the fear of death and to help us in temptation. May we never forget to read and study and pray to our Lord!
