Profane Swearing in a Revered Discourse Reflected On

In a sermon on the Lord's Prayer Rev E H Chapin denounces profane swearing as a brutal vice. He questions those who use God's name as an expletive, urging restraint, gentleness, and reverence for the holy name rather than blasphemous jest. He argues profanity betrays a coarse nature and weakens argument.
