The Greek word for "glory" (δόξα, doxa) often refers to the honor and splendor associated with God and His works. In the context of Paul's ministry, it signifies the divine approval and the spiritual victories that accompany faithful service. Conversely, "dishonor" (ἀτιμία, atimia) reflects the shame and disgrace that the world often casts upon believers.
