### 101. Q. But may we swear an oath in God’s name if we do it reverently?
|
||||
|
||||
**A**. Yes, when the government demands it, or when necessity requires it, in order to maintain and promote truth and trustworthiness for God’s glory and our neighbor’s good. Such oath-taking is grounded in God’s Word<sup>1</sup> and was rightly used by the saints in the Old and New Testaments.<sup>2</sup>
