Soooo….given that all the accounts on Twitter that said the oath were lying or paid performers, what would be the consequences for violating an oath sworn to God, Himself?
>Matthew 5:34
From wikipaedoia:
Very few Christians interpret this verse literally to mean that all oaths are prohibited as in other parts of the Bible oaths are looked upon more favourably.
In 2 Corinthians 1:23 and Galatians 1:20 Paul of Tarsus swears oaths, and in Hebrews 6:17 God himself swears an oath. Most Christian thinkers have thus concluded that this verse is either Jesus using hyperbole to emphasize his point, or failing to mention exceptions to this rule that would have been implicit to his audience.
Others interpret the original Greek as being less absolute than its English translations. Thus most Christian churches believe that only false and vain oaths are prohibited.
