“What is honor, and riches, and the favor of creatures - so long as I lack the favor of God, the pardon of my sins, a saving interest in Christ, and the hope of glory! O Lord, give me these, or I die! Give me these, or else I shall eternally die!” GivingLongDiesInterestChristSinLordHonorCreaturesGloryGive MeRichesFavorsSavingPardonFavor Of God Author:Thomas Brooks
“The most important things in life can't be seen with the eyes. Ideas can't be seen. Love can't be seen. Honor can't be seen. This isn't a new concept. Judaism and Christianity and Islam and Buddhism and Taoism have all taught for thousands of years that the highest forms of reality are invisible. God is invisible, and he created the universe. Our souls are invisible, and they give life to our bodies. Angels are invisible, and they're the most powerful of God's creatures.” GivingYearsImportantIdeasSoulBodyRealityEyeFormUniversePowerfulChristianityTaughtBuddhismHonorCreaturesHighestConceptsAngelImportant ThingsIslamInvisibleTaoismMost PowerfulThings In LifeJudaismMost Important Things In LifeChristianity And Islam Book:Angels All Around Us: A Sightseeing Guide to the Invisible World Source: Angels All Around Us: A Sightseeing Guide to the Invisible World
“We have the right to rid our houses of ants; but what we have no right to do is to forget to honor the ant as God made it, out in the place where God made the ant to be. When we meet the ant on the sidewalk, we step over him. He is a creature, like ourselves; not made in the image of God, it is true, but equal with man as far as creation is concerned. The ant and the man are both creatures.” MenMadeHouseForgetStepsCreationHe ManHonorCreaturesEqualConcernedEnvironmentalMade ItStewardshipAntsSidewalkGod Image Author:Francis Schaeffer
“We need to pray for our nation like never before, and then put legs to our prayers and preach the gospel to a sin-loving and Hell-bound world. To pray for America and at the same time ignore that command to preach the gospel to every creature, is nothing but empty hypocrisy. It is to honor God with our lips and have cold hearts that are far from Him. May He give us a love that moves us from the pews into the streets, and from our homes into our universities. God save us from the cozy comfort of lukewarm contemporary Christianity.” WorldNeedsGivingHeartMayHomeAmericaMovingNationsPrayerSinChristianityHellStreetsColdPrayingHonorComfortCreaturesEmptyBoundsUniversityLipsLegsContemporaryCommandHypocrisyTrust In GodOur PrayersGospelCommitment To GodServant Of GodGreatness Of GodCozyPraise GodLukewarmCold Heart Author:Ray Comfort
“Paul taught that religions evolved because man did not honor the true God. Because of rebellion, they "exchanged the glory of the incorruptible God for an image in the form of the corruptible man and birds and four-footed animals and crawling creatures." One characteristic of idolatry is that it always confuses the creature with the creator.” MenFormAnimalFourTaughtHonorCreaturesGloryBirdCreatorCharacteristicsRebellionIdolatryCrawlingTrue God Author:Erwin W.

“For if animals are God's creatures, we have no absolute rights over them, only the duty to look after them as God would look after them.

We are to honor life for the sake of the Lord of life.” IfsLooksJesusAnimalViewsLordRightsCreationDutyHonorCreaturesAbsolutesSakeRejects Book:Animal Gospel Source: Animal Gospel
“she, with her affection and her gaiety, had been largely responsible for him having rediscovered the meaning of life, her love had driven him to the far corners of the Earth, because he needed to be rich enough to buy some land and live in peace with her for the rest of their days. It was his utter confidence in this fragile creature, that had made him fight with honor, because he knew that after a battle he could forget all the horrors of war in her arms, and that, despite all the women he had known, only there in her arms could he close his eyes and sleep like a child.” ChildrenMadeWarEnoughEyeEarthFightingSleepForgetKnownRichLandArmsNeededHonorHorrorBattleCreaturesResponsibleAffectionCornersDrivenDespiteHis EyesMeaning Of LifeFragileGaietyHorror Of WarBrida Author:Paulo Coelho

“Ralston looked down his long, elegant nose at the vile creature at his feet, and said, “You just impugned the honor of my future marchioness. Choose your seconds. I will see you at dawn.” Leaving Oxford sputtering on the ground, Ralston spun on one elegant heel to face Benedick. “When I am done with him, I am coming for your sister. And, if you intend to keep me from her, you had better have an army at your side.” IfsLongSaidDoneFacesSidesFeetHonorCreaturesArmyLeavingNosesDawnSecondsHeelsElegantMy FutureYour SideOxfordSpunBenedick Author:Sarah MacLean
