It is possible that many of our readers may become bored with our repeated insistence on the necessity of recapturing the vocabulary of the Holy Spirit. Our emphasis stems from recognition of the fact that a direct relationship exists between an idea and the language used to express it.
Words are but symbols of ideas.
They are the bodies in which ideas become clothed and through which they exhibit themselves. It is difficult for one mind to project an image within it to another mind so that it will be reflected there in an undistorted impression. The purpose of language is to act as a means of communication to transmit through recognized symbols the ideas which exist in one mind, to other minds. In his revelation of the divine mind to human consciousness, God made use of that means of communication adapted to and employed by rational beings. The divine agent of revelation, the Holy Spirit, conveyed the message of heaven in words.
