Abstract Contemporary works in the philosophy of religion have been much occupied with problems created by the distinctively religious uses of language. This paper examines religious language by x-raying both its meaning and the challenges associated with it. The paper also looked at the relationship between language and religion. It argues that, in as much as there are identified problems with religious language, it has helped in understanding religious experiences which make belief or faith to be a reality. This paper concludes that Religious language communicates and expresses ideas, emotions and convictions to the audience.
Key words: Language, Communication, Christian Religion
