Glory
‘Glory’ survives mainly in nostalgic (‘glory days’) or explicitly self-seeking, even pejorative (‘glory hound,’ ‘hogging the glory’) secular usage — nearly inverted from God’s self-existent, radiant, worship-worthy glory in Romans 1:23 and 9:5, which must be actively distinguished from these connotations.
