Heidelberg Catechism, Q&A 101 speaks to the Anabaptists of the day who would not take oaths in light of Matthew 5:33-37.
Is there any religious (cult or otherwise) group who continues this practice today? Please no commentary: I just need names. Thank you.
101. Q. But may we swear an oath by the Name of God in a godly manner?
A. Yes, when the government demands it of its subjects, or when necessity requires it, in order to maintain and promote fidelity and truth, to God's glory and for our neighbour's good. Such oath-taking is based on God's Word and was therefore rightly used by saints in the Old and the New Testament.
