Sentences, Propositions, and Developments (Teaching Authority in the Catholic Church Episode 2)

"Yes, indeed, our feeble human words fail to convey the almighty Word of God. But, given how we Christians believe that God created us with a similarity, or likeness, to Him, we can use our feeble human words to analogously speak about God, relative to our experiences."
