     If the elaborations "catch on" in some way, and themselves become developed, it is likely that we are looking at the creation of a "rhetorolect," a configuration of topoi and their argumentation that "is generated through a process whereby widely recognized topoi are recontextualized and reconfigured to create conventions that support reasoning in new contexts."

     Early Christian wisdom rhetorolect blends human experiences of the household, one's interpersonal body, and the geophysical world (firstspace) with the cultural space of God's cosmos (secondspace). In the lived space of blending (thirdspace), God functions as heavenly Father over God's children in the world, whose bodies are to produce goodness and righteousness through the medium of God's wisdom, which is understood as God's light in the world.

The goal of wisdom rhetrolect is to create people who produce good action, thought, will, and speech with the aid of God's wisdom.
