“Collin’s argument that Science and faith are compatible deserve a wide hearing. It lets non – churchgoers consider spiritual questions without feeling awkward”
I came across this book, which I still have to read, but it made me think deeply what language God speaks.
I still don’t know exact content inside this.
However, I remember when I was small may be six-year-old; I use to think if you want to speak to lord Shiva or Krishna, I need to pray in Hindi, if I need to speak to Jesus, I need to pray in English, or if I want something from waheguru I need to speak Punjabi. How Innocent!!
I don’t know which language God knows as in the world I think there are so many distinct languages and so many different religions.
However, now, I have grown up, And I know God is one, though we name him with distinct names. I also know when God created this world, he didn’t decide to distinguish us with different religions and faiths as well as languages. So the question arises what language does God speak or understand? Different researchers or Scientists have many different opinions. I don’t know exactly what written in book, that I have to find out.
However, as my understanding of God with period of time says he only understands the language of Innocence and love. He give us signs when we are in trouble. He give us sign when something good to happen. He is always with us, in us.
What you guys think? What the book says, that I will read later on.
Thanks for reading 💝

We had a prophet visit us the other week at church and I liked what he said in regards to God’s language. God doesn’t always talk to us in an audible language like English or Spanish. Sometimes God speaks to us in a language “we” understand. We’re all unique individuals and God knows us. He speaks to us the best way we can understand Him. I know it’s a little hazy, but language is definitely not a barrier in our relationship with God. Blessings!

In my view God/nature/infine power has made certain rules which when followed brings us nearer to that nectar and when broken thrown us towards sadness/worriness. God bless you for such an enlightening blog.

Let me start off by saying, I don’t believe in religion. I do however believe that science and religion go together quite nicely. Theres no need to separate ourselves with choosing and comparing. We are all connected; until we all realize that & start acting like it the world will always be corrupt. Try this for yourself because you matter, & you do make a difference in this world. Instead of competing with one another, try to agree with someone you would normally dismiss on something, anything. That persons feelings and thoughts matter just like yours do. Try giving a compliment instead of giving criticism Peace+Love=Happiness

Such an intriguing topic you raised.. I loved your thought.. Yes, agree with you.. God’s language is very silent, simple, speaking through love and innocence.. the voice speaking from within us, whenever we head ahead, to take any step, good or bad, there’s a ‘yes’ or ‘no’ coming from within all of us.. we hear it always, but it’s different either we listen to it or ignore, but His voice is certainly there to guide us.. through a child’s smile, through the happiness in us while we do something, out of our way, to help someone, is how He reaches us.. through the genuine love and care towards silent animals.. through the silent and beautiful nature, all around us, and many more. These are such unspoken expressions, which go beyond any debate or discussion, but feelings and feelings only.. we need to have special eyes and ears to listen to His voice..
Omg.. I have to stop now.. lol.. thank you dear, for raising this profound topic, it took me away in a totally different world.. 🤐😄🤗😇💕

My dear friend,
He surely speaks the language of the heart, as God is love, light, life, all-consciousness – with such a language we are all connected as our soul is of the same essence as that of God. He is Love and He speaks Love.
Have a great day my friend and thanks for sharing it 🙂

Yes, God gives us signs from time to time.
I remember in elementary school, my Grade 2 music teacher Mrs. Berry told us that “Music is the universal language.”
It was only when I got older and the years past, that I realized what a profound statement that was.
Actually in the previous decade when the Internet really expanded and YouTube was born and I started to watch videos of singers singing in languages other than my own.
I realized that though I didn’t understand the words, through melody and rhythm and tune and tone, I could understand the feelings and emotions being expressed.
Perhaps the language of God is a musical language.

Your point is very Valid, it make sense to me as we understand music, and all of us understand melody and rythm…music is again universal language and I know any form of art is closest to God. God gives us sign’s time to time just we should know how to understand them. Thank you so much for sharing your thoughts 💝😇🙏🏻

So sweet 😊 I feel God speaks through our hearts and that language is beyond words. From whatever distance, god communicates through the heart. Sometimes it can be through a line in a song or a message or just a smile from someone or eyes of an animal or anything. One with open and clear heart will understand it 😊❤🕊

I haven’t read the book too but believe God speaks to man without using his/her physical language; I feel that God doesn’t use words to communicate, he rather uses strongly-impressing visions or mental pictures that evoke deep emotions which man can use his language to communicate with others… We know that most of the great men of God were communicated to via visions—pictures…one thing I think is that if God tells the same message to 2 people from different backgrounds, their interpretations in their respective languages could be different… we can even see slight differences in reports of Jesus’ life as stated by Matthew, Mark, Luke and John respectively, even though they they seemed to have been.
using the same language.

The language is simply, love. When you act in love you are at one with God when you act in a negative way you are turning your back on him. There may be 100 religions but there is only one God. One creator.
The amount of killing that goes on in the world because of religion sickens me to my core. There attitude is, you dont believe what i believe so i must kill you.” Breaking ever rule in what ever book they follow.
There are not many people on this planet that speak to God, God is love and most people dont even love themselves.
