Hypocrites The word hypocrite came into English from the Greek word hypokrites, which means "an actor" or "a stage player." It refers to any person who was wearing a figurative mask and pretending to be someone or something they were not.

To me, honoring someone is to put their wants and needs ahead of mine or to show respect toward others with the idea that they are more important than me. It is rooted in being humble, and in our world today, humbleness is not valued or applauded.

Jesus demonstrated the ultimate humility through His example on earth. He said in Matthew 20:28 that He came to this world not to be served but to serve. We should learn to be humble and serve others just like Jesus.
