First, the Bible says that we have been made in the image of God. In the Book of Genesis, we read about this: Part of this image is the ability to give and receive communication. He has made us rational and intelligent beings. Humans have the ability to understand who God is—that is to the degree that He has revealed this to us.
God made human language to have a divinely ordained purpose—to communicate ideas, concepts and personal feelings. Human language accomplishes these purposes successfully. When Adam and Eve fell into sin, everything about their character became marred. This includes human language. Human language, like everything else that is part of a human being, ...

Disobeying the prophets was the same as disobeying the Lord. The Lord said to Moses: The New Living Translationtranslates these verses as follows: The fact that God...
Finally, we have the fact of Jesus Christ—the eternal God became human. When God did become a human being, He spoke human words. The Bible says: The purpose was to show us what God is like. John also wrote: God became human and personally spoke to humanity in human words so that we can know what He is like. This is another indication that human lan...
