Language- A Gift!

Ordained minister, Dr. Dennis Hall, discusses language as one of the defining characteristics of humanity. He reviews the comical efforts that linguistic scientists make to explain the origin of language. He points out that God spoke to Adam in a language that came from God himself, not through the evolution of grunts and groans of cavemen. Dr. Hall discusses the story of the Tower of Babel found in Genesis 11 when God causes the people to begin speaking different languages. The Hebrew language is considered to be the Holy language because it is the original language of the Bible. The role of the Greek language in expanding Christianity is reviewed. Dr. Hall reminds the listeners of the various ways that language can be abused and that Jesus said, “But I tell you that men will have to give an account on the day of judgment for every careless word they have spoken. For by your words, you will be acquitted, and by your words you will be condemned.” (Matthew 12:36-37).
