God is a male? "God is a Spirit." John 4:24 God is a Spirit: and they that worship him must worship him in spirit and in truth. |

"The description of God as 'father' is under attack today in certain circles. It is charged by some that this leads to a false view that God is a male. This criticism should be taken seriously in that God is not a 'man' (Num. 23:19). He is a Spirit (John 4:24) without sexual parts. "When God is referred [to] as a father, this is simply the use of a metaphor in which he is likened to a kind and loving father. Elsewhere God's love and care can be compared to that of a concerned and caring mother (Isa. 49:14-16; Luke 13:34)" (Baker Theological Dictionary of the Bible, page 247). |

Kalos, In John 4:24, it says the Spirit is a male, "Him" ... also, in Luke 1:35, the Holy Spirit appears to be male ... and in John 14:15-20, we see the Comforter (Spirit) is asle referred to with a male pronoun. While Spirit is gender netural, whenever a person pronoun is used, it is male ... theis is true for God, the Father and the Son. God is male ... but, we shouldn't give Him all our phyiscal parts. Do you believe otherwise? Searcher |

Searcher: Right you are. The Bible consistently refers to God as He, Him and His. Never does the Bible use the words she, her or hers in reference to God. Let me make it clear that in my previous posts in this thread, I was not advocating calling God "she" or "her." Grace to you and to Nicki! kalos |
