What is the language of God and how is the creation and the process of it part of it?

God does not have a language, nor does He need one.

And there wouldn't be any relation to creation or its process.

My determination is to gather the nations To My assembly of kingdoms, To pour on them My indignation, All My fierce anger; All the earth shall be devoured With the fire of My jealousy.
“For then I will restore to the peoples a pure language, That they all may call on the name of the LORD, To serve Him with one accord.


Gods language not being bound by time has no measurement

Which has nothing to do with an actual language, divine or otherwise. The prophet speaks of the time when God shall unite all people to Himself, and their speech will be pure, more literally their lips shall be pure (see Isaiah 6:5-7). It has nothing to do with language, but with God reconciling all people to Himself.

Compare with Ephesians 2:14-16 and Revelation 7:9.

Interesting that the name of this thread is "Language," and academia wants to discuss everything but language.

For you, and all people like you, yes, in your own language. Thus says the Lord in your own laguage. The Word is God, understand? God is Spirit.

Jeremiah 25:v.15-31
15 For thus saith the Lord God of Israel unto me;
Take the wine cup of this fury at my hand, and cause all the nations, to whom I send thee, to drink it.

16 And they shall drink, and be moved, and be mad, because of the Sword that I will send among them.

17 Then took I the cup at the Lord's hand, and made all the nations to drink, unto whom the Lord had sent me: (This will fulfil LITERALLY henceforward - Revelation 11:v.6 - by the way, it is already running)

18 To wit, Jerusalem, and the cities of Judah, and the kings thereof, and the princes thereof, to make them a desolation, an astonishment, an hissing, and a curse; as it is this day;

19 Pharaoh king of Egypt, and his servants, and his princes, and all his people;

20 And all the mingled people, and all the kings of the land of Uz, and all the kings of the land of the Philistines, and Ashkelon, and Azzah, and Ekron, and the remnant of Ashdod,

21 Edom, and Moab, and the children of Ammon,

22 And all the kings of Tyrus, and all the kings of Zidon, and the kings of the isles which are beyond the sea,

23 Dedan, and Tema, and Buz, and all that are in the utmost corners,

24 And all the kings of Arabia, and all the kings of the mingled people that dwell in the desert,

25 And all the kings of Zimri, and all the kings of Elam, and all the kings of the Medes,

26 And all the kings of the north, far and near, one with another, and all the kingdoms of the world, which are upon the face of the earth: and the king of Sheshach shall drink after them.

27 Therefore thou shalt say unto them, Thus saith the Lord of hosts, the God of Israel; Drink ye, and be drunken, and spue, and fall, and rise no more, because of the sword which I will send among you.

28 And it shall be, if they refuse to take the cup at thine hand to drink, then shalt thou say unto them, Thus saith the Lord of hosts; Ye shall certainly drink.

29 For, lo, I begin to bring evil on the city which is called by my name, and should ye be utterly unpunished? Ye shall not be unpunished: for I will call for a sword upon all the inhabitants of the earth, saith the Lord of hosts.

30 Therefore prophesy thou against them all these words, and say unto them, The Lord shall roar from on high, and utter his voice from his holy habitation; he shall mightily roar upon his habitation; he shall give a shout, as they that tread the grapes, against all the inhabitants of the earth.

31 A noise shall come even to the ends of the earth; for the Lord hath a controversy with the nations, he will plead with all flesh; he will give them that are wicked to the sword, saith the Lord.

32 Thus saith the Lord of hosts, Behold, evil shall go forth from nation to nation, and a great whirlwind shall be raised up from the coasts of the earth.

33 And the slain of the Lord shall be at that day from one end of the earth even unto the other end of the earth: they shall not be lamented, neither gathered, nor buried; they shall be dung upon the ground.

telepathy is of the devil and not the language of God. that is the only other alternative,

language by definition is something understood between 2 people.

Language, a system of conventional spoken, manual (signed), or written symbols by means of which human beings, as members of a social group and participants in its culture, express themselves.

Yup ... and language also comes with a name ... be it English, Swahili, Hebrew, Russian, Chamorro, and the like.

But it takes the academic world to turn a simple request as to what it was into a philosophical discussion that bottoms out by someone saying, 'God does not have a language, nor does He need one.'

That is your own words, what prevails is the Word of God. The Word is God, understand?

Jesus is the eternal and uncreated Logos, yes. And thus what God has "spoken" to us is the Person of His Son, Jesus our Lord.

I don't know what you mean "which makes the word God to us", Jesus, as the Divine Logos is Himself truly God, because He is the eternally-begotten Son of the Father.

The Word is God, because that's what He is. There are three Divine Persons: the Father, the Son (Word), and the Holy Spirit. Co-eternal, consubstantial. One God.

Yes, JESUS is the Word of God. The Word was made flesh. Great mystery. The Word is God. How to understand this mystery without the Spirit of God, without the Spirit of Christ, whithout the Holy Spirit?
