HONOR
— esteem and respect. To honor God is to give Him reverence and
homage, for God alone is worthy of our highest honor (1 Chr.
16:27; Rev. 4:9–11). Jesus makes it plain that one cannot honor
the Father unless he also honors the Son (John 5:23). Esteem,
honor, and respect should also be given to our spiritual leaders
in the church “Let the elders who rule well be counted worthy of
double honor, especially those who labor in the word and
doctrine,” (1 Tim. 5:17; Heb. 13:7, KJV).
One of the Ten Commandments states, “Honor
your father and your mother” (Ex. 20:12; Deut. 5:16). Jesus
taught that to honor parents means to help them financially
(Matt. 15:4–6).
