Si Dieu ne parvient pas ou refuse de s'estimer de manière prééminente, il commettrait le péché d'idolâtrie. L'idolâtrie consiste à honorer quelqu'un ou quelque chose comme dieu, au lieu de Dieu. Si Dieu devait agir d'une manière telle qu'il ne cherche pas sa propre gloire, il dirait que quelque chose de plus précieux que lui existe, et c'est un mensonge. Pire encore, c'est de l’idolâtrie.

For God to fail or refuse to value Himself preeminently would implicate Him in the sin of idolatry. Idolatry is honoring anyone or anything as god, instead of God. If God were ever to act in such a way that He did not seek His own glory, He would be saying that something more valuable than Himself exists, and that is a lie. Worse still, it is idolatrous.
