Just how sensitive to sin around should we be? Leviticus 22-24

If someone uses God's name in vain near you, what is your response? When someone blasphemes your savior within your ear-shot what do you do? What do you "feel" like doing? Do you cringe? Do you speak up? Do you say something? Do you want to say something? At the end of this section we have the story of a young man who blasphemed God's name. Those around him were so sensitive they put him into custody until the matter could be sorted out with Moses (the earthly authority) and according to God's will (the heavenly authority). God is holy and to be treated as holy. We are not to violate that holiness in any way for any matter in even the slightest manner. Taking God's name in vain violates God's holiness. Men and women who do so will be held accountable. I am not sure what we can do in an unbelieving world when others have no regard for the holiness of God. I prefer to walk away from people who continually defame God. There are times when I have confronted them and had a good response and times I have had no response. I can't remember having a bad response. The key in this issue is not what their response is to me (should I choose to confront them) but it is in my respons to hearing them defame God. In today's society we have become so unsenstive to God being defamed we hardly take notice. The Isrealites will soon become the same way. They will not soon care that God is being defamed. This is an unusual example in their history they would have been wised to learn and to remember. When others take God's name in vain we ought to be hurt and defamed ourselves. How we respond may have to do with a lot of different variables. However, that we are offended or have grown numb to hearing it is our responsibility. God will and must take care of defending His holiness. We must be sensitive to it, however. God isn't pleased when we grow accustomed to His defamation.
