God is obviously a male and what the heck is that thing.

>>771631

Since when is that a Christian? Looks like the typical liberal pagan to me.

>God has no gender

>except for that time he incarnated and was male

"Ok"

Is that Jimmy NUtron?

>>771638

Technically the male gender belongs to Jesus Christ humanity. He is truly one person, fully human being of the male sex and fully God.

>>771665

It belongs to His divine nature as well. God has always been referred to as "He".

>>771669

God is pure spirit lad. He is called He because He is the Father, the maker of the universe. But it's not because of gender, since that concept cannot be applied to him.

If that was true God would belong to the category of masculine, implying it existed before Him, which is false.

>>771673

God IS the category of masculine. We are created in His image. The category doesn't pre-exist Him, He is the very category itself, just as He is love.

>>771673

Speculative

>>771673

Well, man was created in the image of God, and the man was male. The woman was created later to be his companion…

>>771694

"God created man in his image. Male and female he created them." - Genesis

Man and woman are both created in the image of God.

This girl's (?) argument falls down because we are not God. God created us with gender, so to reject your gender is to reject the order of God's creation, and to reject God and his authority over your life and being.

To say it's because God is that way is further to be guilty of the same crime as Lucifer and to place yourself above God and his created order.

That's actually quite helpful for me atm cheers lad

>>771631

Gender is a grammatical construct, and since God constantly refers to Himself in masculine terms we can reliably infer that He is masculine. And since He is the Father of everyone and the King of everything, and since fatherhood and kingship are inherently masculine, we can even go so far as to say that He is supremely masculine, the most masculine being in all of existence.

>>771631

That's not a Christian, it's just a leftist skeptic intentionally misinterpreting theology to justify their depravity.

>>771665

>Technically the male gender belongs to Jesus Christ humanity

Is the human person not God?

>fully human being of the male sex and fully God

Yes, God in the flesh. The man is God.

>>771678

>God IS the category of masculine

Masculinity is a creaturely category. God is not masculine, rather, masculinity is like God.

>>771690

No it's scriptural

>>771631

It literally says in the Bible for men to dress as men and women as women. Men and women are distinct and do not become the other through self identification or taking hormones.

>men have to dress as men

>Jesus dresses as a man

God is male confirmed.

>>771631

>speaks with a clearly womanly voice

>woman's face shape

>beard

Sorry, lady, but fugme that's repugnant

>God is gender fluid

No, you've misunderstood. God is sexLESS. You were created with a sex.

Embrace it. Stop this foolishness.

>>771631

this is one of the most disgusting things ive ever seen on the chans

>>771673

Why is he called Father and not Mother then? God is a mediterranean white male.

Anyone who takes issue with calling God a Father is either a Muslim or a polytheist. The fact alone that Christ called God Father is sufficient reason to despise these "God could be a woman" idiots, considering we as the faithful must follow Christ's example.

To be clear, the Godhead itself is beyond categories of masculinity or femininity, themselves creatures. However, it is no coincidence the Second Person incarnated into a male human nature and, from that vantage, referred to the First Person as Father. Metaphysics held in mind, our relationship with God appropriately demands we refer to Him in the masculine.
