Should Christians Take Oaths? - Matthew 5:33-37 - Vine Abiders with Chris White

In this Vine Abiders study, Chris White walks through Matthew 5:33–37 and James 5:12 to unpack Jesus’ prohibition of oaths and how that differs from vows. We look at why Scripture treats invoking God’s name so seriously, how the early church understood these commands, and what this means today for courtrooms, citizenship oaths, the military, and modern wedding ceremonies. Clear, practical, and pastoral—anchored in the text and honest about gray areas, repentance, and mercy.
