To Be Least

"For he who is least among you all--he is the greatest." (Luke 9:48)

Jesus is my homeboy?

      I recently found this post about the "Jesus is my Homeboy" shirts that have become popular. After reading the post and the comments I decided to throw in my two cents.
I think that putting Jesus's name on shirts is wrong simply because...

Exodus 20:7 states that, "You shall not misuse the name of the LORD your God, for the LORD will not hold anyone guiltless who misuses his name."

Also Deuteronomy 5:11, "You shall not misuse the name of the LORD your God, for the LORD will not hold anyone guiltless who misuses his name."

From what I see, putting Jesus's name on a shirt is lowering him down to the position of mere sinners and humans. Jesus is God, not a basketball player. This seems to be clearly a misuse of His name.

Later.
