WHY YOU CAN THINK AND TALK

In the previous podcast we saw that the "image of God" in man consists of his sharing the "communicable" attributes of God, a capacity unique to human beings. we selected just three of these attributes for deeper study, namely spitituality, mind and spoken language. There was time to deal with only the first of these in that podcast so here we continue to explore two of the remaining attributes God shares with humanity, namely mind and language. We distinguishes human thought from animal intelligence and explain how spoken language is a unique capacity allowing mind to function. God uses these attributes on his own behalf to reveal and sustain creation, culminating in Christ as the Word, God's ultimate self-revelation. The episode urges us all to recognize that humans were made for fellowship with God and are called to respond to his message of salvation.
