Is it to get self glory, or to be exalted by men. Today people are tearing each other down, cut throats at work, stepping on other's toes, and destroying reputations. As a believer, we are not so called "fitted into the worlds mold to be like them, while others use profanity you might not, I don't think you'll be honored by not being as the world, for it is written , the world loveth it's own, since we don't belong to the world, it will be the Lord who will honor you, this is what really matters, man's opionions of believers are just that, good or not, but God's grace upon us is all that matters, and all we need. Psalm 91:15, "I will honor him" when you feel like nothing, remember this verse, God does HONOR you, that's real.
An honorable man is a man/woman/child that is THANKFUL and praises The GOD ALMIGHTY Father of the families of Abraham, Isaac and Jacob/Israel. At this point in the Plan, and since the time that he was here in the flesh; in and through the way that Christ taught! not some man or any man, but Christ! The Anointed ONE man of Our Father.

The word "honor" now belongs to the set of meaningless words due to the polarization of the US and Europe. For examples, "education," "justice," "dignity," "pro-choice," "Christian," "freedom," "irreconcilable differences," "land of the Free," and "home of the brave," "Bachelors Degree," "technician," "reverend doctor," etc., don't mean anything anymore. ...just saying.
Who is hononorable? Who can decide to be honorable? Who can be honorable? Only God can make honorable. Not one person will be honorable, that God did not make honorable.
Look here... Hath not the potter power over the clay, of the same lump to make one vessel unto honour, and another unto dishonour?
If God did not make me unto honour, i will NEVER be honorable.... Which are you, I think I might just be one of the UNLUCKY ones...

Well, yes. I think we need to obey him:
[1] Every one who believes that Jesus is the Christ is a child of God, and every one who loves the parent loves the child.
[2] By this we know that we love the children of God, when we love God and obey his commandments.
[3] For this is the love of God, that we keep his commandments. And his commandments are not burdensome. I John 5:1-3 RSV

Some people try to obey the Lord's commandments. Others choose instead to commit the sin of pride by "climbing the social ladder." These social climbers often are praised by the world, including elements of the church. However, they are people who have gone astray and don't stand to inherit the Kindom of God.
Oh my friend are you still prodding in the dark? If you want to be loved by the World, then please do not follow Jesus. If you do He will make you as Himslef, and the World will HATE you. Every person of the world HATES God and His Truth. That is why you should make the estimate to follow Jesus.... Do the calculation if you want to be hated by the world... If you do not mind that, then you may start to follow Jesus and start preaching the Truth....
Just look what is said to me for what I teach... There is only one Truth.... BE PERFECT AS GOD IS PERFECT... and the WORLD and his sinners HATE that message. Yet it is my life! My bread and God's blessed Truth!

What Does the Bible Say About Honor?
1 Samuel 2:30 ESV / 70 helpful votes Therefore the Lord, the God of Israel, declares: ‘I promised that your house and the house of your father should go in and out before me forever,’ but now the Lord declares: ‘Far be it from me, for those who honor me I will honor, and those who despise me shall be lightly esteemed.
Romans 13:1-7
Let every person be subject to the governing authorities. For there is no authority except from God, and those that exist have been instituted by God. Therefore whoever resists the authorities resists what God has appointed, and those who resist will incur judgment. For rulers are not a terror to good conduct, but to bad. Would you have no fear of the one who is in authority? Then do what is good, and you will receive his approval, for he is God's servant for your good. But if you do wrong, be afraid, for he does not bear the sword in vain. For he is the servant of God, an avenger who carries out God's wrath on the wrongdoer. Therefore one must be in subjection, not only to avoid God's wrath but also for the sake of conscience. ...

The wicked are not so, but are like chaff that the wind drives away. Therefore the wicked will not stand in the judgment, nor sinners in the congregation of the righteous; ...

Isaiah 1:1-31
The vision of Isaiah the son of Amoz, which he saw concerning Judah and Jerusalem in the days of Uzziah, Jotham, Ahaz, and Hezekiah, kings of Judah. Hear, O heavens, and give ear, O earth; for the Lord has spoken: “Children have I reared and brought up, but they have rebelled against me. The ox knows its owner, and the donkey its master's crib, but Israel does not know, my people do not understand.” Ah, sinful nation, a people laden with iniquity, offspring of evildoers, children who deal corruptly! They have forsaken the Lord, they have despised the Holy One of Israel, they are utterly estranged. Why will you still be struck down? Why will you continue to rebel? The whole head is sick, and the whole heart faint. ...
Isaiah 43:7
Everyone who is called by my name, whom I created for my glory, whom I formed and made.”
1 John 4:5-9
They are from the world; therefore they speak from the world, and the world listens to them. We are from God. Whoever knows God listens to us; whoever is not from God does not listen to us.

Anyone who does not love does not know God, because God is love. In this the love of God was made manifest among us, that God sent his only Son into the world, so that we might live through him.
