The Limitations of Human Words and the Power of the Word of God
This chapter explores the limitations of human language in expressing oneself compared to God's ability to fully speak the truth of who He is. It delves into the Christian doctrine of the Trinity and the role of the Father in speaking the fullness of Himself through the Son. Additionally, it discusses the concept that all things came to be through the Son and how the world is created in accordance with the Logos, resulting in order and intelligibility. The chapter also introduces the character of John the Baptist as a representative of all those who speak the word of God to varying degrees, including spokespersons, prophets, philosophers, scientists, and artists.
