Definition: The term "altitudinarian" is a term used in the Bible to refer to an individual who exhibits behaviors or attitudes that are consistent with religious beliefs, but not necessarily aligned with them. This term was also used by Jesus Christ during his ministry. In Greek, the term "altitudinarian" translates as "benevolent," which implies a disposition toward goodness and benevolence. It is often associated with someone who is kind to others, but not so much for their own well-being or material possessions. The Christian concept of an "altitudinal person" is one who accepts the authority of God and humbles himself in worship and service, without seeking recognition or wealth. This perspective promotes a life of humility, obedience, and service to others, often seen as a sign of spiritual maturity and enlightenment. The term "altitudinarian" has been used throughout history to describe individuals who have lived lives that are reflective of the moral compass and values taught by religious traditions.
