Doxa speaks of honor, radiance, and manifest greatness. Applied to God it names his revealed majesty — the “glory of the LORD” that filled the temple and shone at Christ’s transfiguration.

The New Testament says we “fall short of the glory of God” in sin, yet are being “transformed… from one degree of glory to another.” Human life finds its purpose in glorifying God and, astonishingly, in one day sharing his glory.
