The language of theology

Živan Bezić

Abstract

Theology has its linguistical dimension too. It is per definitionem a
speech (language). The subject matter of this speech is the faith in
God. Since God is incomprehensible He is ineffable too. This difficulty
places theology in a aporistic situation of aphasia. The scientifical lan­
guage in theology being imposible in its totality, the religious and theo-
logical speech is oriented toward analogical, allegorical and symbolical
models of speaking.
