A God-fearing person will not honor the wicked

 

In whose eyes a vile person is despised, but he honors those who fear the LORD … Psalm 15:4

A true Christian, who has a pure heart, and walks uprightly, should he treat everyone the same?

Bible says that a vile person is despised in the eyes of those who walk uprightly and they honour those who fear the Lord.

This is how the prophet Elisha acted, when Jehoshaphat the God-fearing king of Judah, and Jehoram, the wicked king of Israel came to him. Elisha answered Jehoram with disdain, saying: “What have I to do with you? Go to the prophets of your father and the prophets of your mother.” and he showed respect to Jehoshaphat, stressing that it was only because of his presence that he looked at Jehoram and only by respecting his presence did he give an answer from the Lord to their problem. (2 Kings 3:13, 14).

A God-fearing person will not honor the wicked, regardless of the position and power of the wicked.
