The second commandment of God's Law is You shall not take the name of the Lord your God in vain. This commandment “prescribes respect for the Lord's name" ( Catechism 2142), and commands us to honor the name of God. The Lord's name is not to be pronounced “except to bless, praise, and glorify it" (Catechism 2143).

The third commandment of the Decalogue is: Keep feast days holy. Before the coming of Jesus Christ, the seventh day was the Sabbath. In the New Testament it is Sunday, Dies Domini , the day of the Lord, because it is the day of the Lord's Resurrection. The Sabbath represented the end of creation; Sunday represents the beginning of the “new creation," which took place with Christ's resurrection (cf. Catechism 2174).
