The Protestant Reformation was based on 5 principles, known as 5 suns. In this series, we will study the meaning of each one. Today we will continue with the “Soli Deo Gloria”, or “Only God Glory”:
We use the expression glory of God so often that it tends to lose its biblical strength, but is this glory, like the sun, no less fiery and no less beneficial because people don’t know?However, God hates being “Consider in this you that you forget God, so that he does not tear you apart, without anyone releasing you. (Psalm 50:22). So let’s focus again on the glory of God. what is its importance
What is the glory of God?
The glory of God is the holiness of God exposed. In other words, God’s infinite worth has manifested itself. Notice how Isaiah changes to “glory”:? And they shouted at each other, saying, Holy, holy, holy is the lord of armies; Is the whole earth full of its glory?(Isaiah 6:3). When God’s holiness fills the earth for people to see, it is called glory.
The fundamental meaning of saint is “separated from the ordinary”. Therefore, is God’s holiness his infinite separation?Is this what makes you the only infinity, like the rarest and most perfect diamond in the world?There are only no other diamond gods, The singularity of God as the only God?The Divinity makes her infinitely precious and holy.
Speaking of God’s glory, the Bible admits that this infinite value came into creation.
