Soli Deo Honor Et Gloria: Honour and Glory in the Theology of Martin Luther

Sasja E.M. Stopa explores the influence of honour and glory on Martin Luther's theology. Luther's works overflow with terminology of honour and glory. Analysing a broad selection hereof, Stopa argues that his doctrine of justification centers on a soteriological concern for the recreation of human glory lost in the Fall and a doxological concern for God's glory stolen by sinners. Stopa shows how this relation to God patterns Luther's understanding of social relations and discusses justification as a process of mutual recognition translating Luther's theology of glory into contemporary theology. PhD Sasja Emilie Mathiasen Stopa is a postdoctoral researcher in the field of systematic theology at the Department of Theology, Aarhus University.
