HonorBound is more than a name for Men. It is a new way of looking at
oneself as a godly man. As a result, it embodies the vision of where
we are trying to go with all the men. The major philosophy is to
challenge men to think about who they are in Christ when they think of
the name HonorBound. HonorBound rests on four basic principles, all of
which come from the Word of God.
- In
John 5:23, Jesus declares that to honor Him is to honor our Father who
is in heaven ... we are to honor Jesus in every aspect of life.
- In
Matthew 15:4, the Lord also said that we are to honor our father and
mother; and in this statement laid down a principle for honoring our
families.
- And
then the apostle Paul, in 1 Timothy 5:3, said we are to make provisions
for those who are in need ... we are to honor people by serving in
ministry.
- In
1 Peter 2:17, the apostle Peter says we are to honor those who are in
authority over us ... we do this by being connected and accountable in
our local church.
These four principles paint a picture of what it means to be an
HonorBound man. At the very core of being HonorBound is the idea of
honor in every sense of the word. If a man can look himself in the
mirror and see himself as someone different, someone dressed in the
full armor of God, fully ready to take on life as a man of honor, then
we will have accomplished the vision of HonorBound.
At Calvary Temple, we endeavor to see our men become everything that
God wants them to become. This happens through small group
discipleship, opportunities to serve, and times of Godly fellowship.
