what is the language that you beleive your god spoke?

Slayer asked:


As one of the most important elements of a culture’s identity, language is also incendiary. A group’s language can feel essential to its very existence. It’s no surprise that often the more vulnerable a group feels, the greater its devotion to its language. “There are different qualities of allegiance,” Shell says. Francophones tend to have a more explicit allegiance to their language than Anglophones do. “Most Americans don’t have a close tie to their language of which they are aware. Most don’t believe, for example, that God spoke English. But if we are Muslim, we may believe that God spoke Arabic, or if we are Jewish, Hebrew.”

    Although I’ve studied many religions, I think God spoke in all languages. I think he is open to anyone anywhere who embraces his religion. This is the same for many other religions as well.

    God rocked.

    God can speak ANY language at ANY time. He created all things, therefore He can communicate with all things.

    However, while Jesus was on this Earth He primarily spoke Aramaic.

    If you recall at one point all the people of the world spoke the same language but when they tried to build that tower, God struck them with different tongues and that split everyone up into groups. since we could no longer understand each other we did not trust each othern and did not work together, which was our punishment

    God will speak to us in the language we understand it is the same language becaues God speaks to the heart and it knows no earhtly language only the tongue of the Spirit.

    it will sound like what ever language you consider your own so that you can understand.

    doesn’t he speak in the language that someone understands?
    so he can make himself understood?

    sometimes it is not even language he speaks to make himself understood - sometimes its signs etc…

    the q is: do we listen?

    For any religeon, of any god, the universal language is the “language of faith”. Express it, feel it, I am sure it will take you close to any GOD, and you will not be having any problem it appealing to HIM.

    God speaks with us by physic language.
    We are a part of nature and nature is physic.
    Physic is the most difficult language of the world.
    For example can you explain what does: E=MC^2 means?

    God speaks with your brain by physic language. And then you get it like a signal like an imagination but silent.
    God never talks with you but send you some living signals and shakes your conscience.

    If you know that every word of your native language is saved as a picture in your brain then you really know that actually this is physics that we are talking.

    For example when you see this word (lemon)
    Why do you imagine a lemon?
    It is because your brain has saved the picture of lemon in your brain related to this word.
    That is why blind born people can not speak like the way we do, because they have difficulties with their imaginations.

    Send me mail if you are not convinced.
