hi psacramento
Yes if your broaden it right upto worship. venerate is more worship than honour and going beyond the scriptures intent..
When someone honours a king it is about respect and honouring not about worship.
I appreciate that you love Jesus but he never wanted to takes God's place in our worship and eyes. His love for his father is so profound he couldn't accept this unwanted gift from us.
but anyway I appreciate we may never agree on this. You have opinions I respect though.
thank you Psacramento.
