God Remains Masculine: Understanding Biblical Truth
Do you believe that God should be gender neutral or feminine? Discover why the majority of Christians disagree with this notion and why the Bible does not support such changes. The belief that the Church of England should make the name of God gender neutral or feminine has been a controversial topic among some so-called Christians for some time. (Not in my church!) While some delusional bishops feel that God is gender neutral and that His name should be gender neutral, others believe that God is revealed as a masculine figure in the Bible and that His name should remain male. Here again, there are evil forces attacking the masculinity of men.
This article seeks to explain why the majority of Christians disagree with making the name of God gender neutral or feminine and how the Bible does not support such changes. Disciples of Christ believe that the Bible does not support the notion of making the name of God gender neutral or feminine. The Bible clearly reveals that God has revealed Himself to us as a masculine figure. He is referred to as the Father, the King of Kings, and the Lord of Hosts, all of which are masculine titles. It is further argued that the Bible does not refer to God using any gender-neutral terms, nor does it refer to God using feminine pronouns or titles. Only reprobates would think differently.
Furthermore, it is argued that changing the name of God to make it gender neutral or feminine would be to deny the truth of God's revelation as revealed in the Bible. Rather than attempting to make God gender neutral, it is argued that we should instead embrace the truth of God's revelation and seek to understand it more deeply. God, our maker, is a male.
Finally, it is argued that making the name of God gender neutral or feminine would be to deny the Christian doctrine of the Trinity. The Trinity is the belief that God is three persons in one, consisting of the Father, the Son, and the Holy Spirit. The Holy Spirit is also known as a male. Jesus declared,
"Howbeit when he, the Spirit of truth, is come, he will guide you into all truth; for he shall not speak of himself, but whatsoever he shall hear, that shall he speak; and he will show you things to come" (John 16:13). To make the name of God gender neutral or feminine would be to deny the doctrine of the Trinity, as it says clearly that the Father, Son, and Holy Spirit are of the same gender. The point is made, and the case is closed. To believe anything different would be nothing more than heresy.
In conclusion, the majority of Christians disagree with the notion that the name of God should be made gender neutral or feminine, in spite of the reprobate teachings of the Church of England. This is due to the Bible's clear revelation of God as a masculine figure, the lack of gender-neutral terms used to refer to God, and the implications such a change would have for the doctrine of the Trinity. Therefore, it is argued that rather than attempting to change the name of God, Christians should instead seek to understand and embrace the truth of God's revelation as revealed in the Bible. "Our Father, which art in heaven," is a male!
