"Love each other
with brotherly affection
and take delight
in honoring each other."
~ Romans 12:10 LAB

Bible Commentary: "We
can honor others two ways. The world's way has an ulterior motive. In the
world, we honor our bosses so they will reward us; our employees so they
will work harder; the wealthy so they will contribute to our cause; the
powerful so they will use their power for us, not against us. God's way
of honoring others is different. As Christians, we honor people because
they have been created in God's image, because they are our brothers and
sister in Christ, because we are grateful for the ways they are building
up the body of Christ."
