There are 4 reasons why the Bible says you should respect everybody regardless of their lifestyle, regardless of their decisions, regardless of their behavior or beliefs, regardless of their decisions and regardless of their behavior or beliefs. Every person should be treated with respect. 


Why Treat Everyone With Respect?

1-Because God Made Everybody

2-Because Jesus Died For Everyone

3-Because It Shows I Know God

4-Because I Will Get Back Whatever I Give Out


How To Show Respect To Others! There are 5 things that help us show respect. These things will help you develop respect for others you meet.

1-When I Speak To Other People, I Need To Be Tactful, Not Just Truthful. 

Tact is what you think but don’t say. Tact is the ability to make a point without making an enemy. Tact is changing the subject without changing your mind. Tact is speaking the truth in love!

2-When I’m Being Served By People, I Need To Be Understanding Not Demanding. 

3-When You Disagree With People, Be Gentle Not Judgmental.

-Remember that ultimately every individual will be accountable to God for their own attitudes, actions and behaviors.

-I’m not God! So, people are not accountable to me. The scripture teaches us that we can’t expect people to act the way God wants to act.

4-When you Share Your Faith With People, Respect Don’t Reject Them.

5-When People Are Rude To You Respond Politely.
