We said previously that Saint John the Damascan tells us that God is one. He demonstrated with powerful arguments that there cannot be many gods. He now tells us that this one and only God has a Word. This is right and reasonable, because we can’t imagine God as being wordless. What do I mean when I apply ‘word’ to God.
