Faith is inherent in human life because we live in response to language. Soldiers charge into the fray on orders from a general they trust. If they knew exactly what was ahead, their charge wouldn’t be an act of faith. They don’t know, so they must simply trust the commander.
Faith is our fundamental stance toward God because God is Word, and communicates in words.
Hence, the “linguistic turn” becomes a “theological turn.”
