n his first letter to the churches, Peter encourages believers to live lives of honor among ourselves and among the non-believers of the world. We are to honor not only our brothers and sisters in Christ, but also those in the world around us including the authorities of worldly governments. In so doing, everyone will take note and glorify God. It is important for us to remember that honoring others doesn’t always mean that we approve of their own behavior. We offer them our honor in obedience to God’s command regardless of whether we approve of their words and deeds.
