Fire From Heaven Quotes

“As The Preacher in the biblical book of Ecclesiastes puts it: All words wear themselves out;
a man cannot utter it;
the eye is not satisfied with seeing,
nor the ear with hearing. Confronted with this verbal paralysis, what can people do? They sing, they rhapsodize, they invent metaphors; they soar into canticles and doxologies. But ultimately, words fail them and they lapse into silence. Or they speak in tongues.”
― Harvey Cox, Fire From Heaven: The Rise Of Pentecostal Spirituality And The Reshaping Of Religion In The 21st Century
