Sola 5 For God’s Glory Alone
1 Peter 4 God will not give His glory to another….. At the name of Jesus, every knee should bow in Heaven and on earth and under the earth and every tongue confess that Jesus Christ is Lord to the glory of God the Father.

God blesses those people who refuse evil advice and won’t follow sinners or join in sneering at God. To be blessed is to have supreme happiness!
