The bible says that No man has ever seen God. (1 John 4:12) so this question is pointless.
You cannot tell the Gender of something you have never seen.

Well, Jesus called him Father - and not mother. So a Father should not be she, i think? Even trinitarians say Father, Son and Spirit?

hahaha, sum1 recently informed me that d divine name elohim is feminine!

well because jesus lived in a time where men controlled the world( well men still do now sort of ). once upon a time in antiquity when women controlled every affair of society and men had no relevance but only needed for baby making and protecting the kids, The creator was referred to as Goddess and not God.it would have been Goddess the mother, daughter and holy spirit.

my point is God the father son is figurative and not to be taken literally. The father represent the THOUGHT OR INTENT and the son is the WORD or the EXPRESSION that's all it is.

^^^If you read my post with an open mind, nowhere did i claim to know the gender of God. In fact i read somewhere that the holyspirit is feminine.

^^^i didn't say you did. my point was alluding to jesus calling God his father and linked to the fact that men wrote the bible..

And even if you did you had every right to state your opinion. my statement was not an attack on you.

^^^Men always write based on context and based on what is at that time. For example, if someone a thousand years ago receives a revelation that a thousand years to come, people are going to be browsing on ipad, how does the person put it in writing?

Let us assume that the book of revelations was written in this here and now, we will see terminologies of our present-day generation such as - instead of the beast - a humanoid alien wearing a huge space helmet etc

^^^ i am assumming by men you mean humans. In a sense you are saying what i said earlier using different words. why i said father should not be taken literal.

having said that let me add that there is a reason why the "men" who write or re-wrote most of these religious scripts seems to denote their Creator or God as a masculine figure instead of say a feminine figure or any other figure. have you asked yourself why the bible for instance denotes "God" or even "satan" as a masculine figure? Why not in the beginning the Goddess created the heavens and earth instead of God?.. i have one word for you. POWER.

^^^I believe and understand you, but this your level of understanding signifies that we align on a certain level. By men, aye, i meant humans.

pastormustwacc: ^^^I believe and understand you, but this your level of understanding signifies that we align on a certain level. By men, aye, i meant humans.

@bolded what you do mean

^^^We agree on a certain level.

^^^ I know what you meant. I guess I chose the wrong question..it was more of me asking you to explicate or throw more light on your statement tied in to what I bolded...but nevermind I got the point...

^^^That is the correct answer, i wanted to be sure you at were able to know there was a hidden meaning intended in my message,

pastormustwacc: ^^^That is the correct answer, i wanted to be sure you at were able to know there was a hidden meaning intended in my message,

exactly. i felt that, why i asked you to explicate.

^^^I wanted to be sure that you knew there was a hidden meaning, and the fact that you knew has answered my question. I can sometimes code hidden meanings into plain words and target it at certain people, if they are the right people, then they know what i meant.

Now, back to topic and what we were discussing, the manner of writing of the scriptures in dependent on the writer. Now, another question i will like to know is:
what is the gender of angels, if the angels are men, then are there any female angels? Some say it is the same angels that appear as male/female.

in their purest form in the spiritual realm or " heaven" angelics/spirit beings have no gender .. you could say they are sexless in their purest state... Angels can manifest can manifest into whatever form they desire.. male, female, beasts etc.. they can manifest into whatever and anything.. You have to understand that form is an illusion..

When you "die" or go to heaven/spiritual realm you become like the angels. I'm sure you have heard that statement before from which a lot of arguments have sprung forth because of lack of understanding ..
