Information about legend: SOLI DEO GLORIA
SOLI DEO GLORIA (1965 - )
| Legend | SOLI DEO GLORIA |
|---|---|
| Translation | Translated from Latin: Glory to God alone. |
The expression has been used by artists like Johann Sebastian Bach, George Frideric Handel, and Christoph Graupner to signify that the work was produced for the sake of praising God. The phrase has become one of the five fundamental principles propounded to summarise the Reformers' basic beliefs during the Protestant Reformation. As a greeting, it was used by monks in cistercian and trappist monastic orders in written comunication. As a doctrine, it means that everything is done for God's glory to the exclusion of mankind's self-glorification and pride. Christians are to be motivated and inspired by God's glory and not their own. The text features on South African coins of the R1 (One Rand) denomination. | |
