Status Worship is an exaggerated emphasis on one's status rather than his actual insights, contributions, or effort.
Jesus was known to place no significance in one's status:
- "Teacher," they said, "we know you are a man of integrity and that you teach the way of God in accordance with the truth. You aren't swayed by men, because you pay no attention to who they are."[1]
In another translation the term "status" is used to describe how it meant nothing to Jesus.
