God isn't a man: The case for gender-neutral and inclusive language for churches

God is male (Re.1:6 below). The only begotten son of God the Father (Jn.1:14, Re.1:6, Col.2:9 below), Jesus (the Word - Jn.1:1, Jn.1:14 below), His beloved Son (Matt.3:17), was conceived of the Holy Ghost (Matt.1:20 below). in Jesus dwells ALL the fulness of the Godhead bodily (Col.2:9 below).



Re.1:6 And hath made us kings and priests unto God AND his Father; to him be glory and dominion for ever and ever. Amen.

Jn.1:14 And the Word was made flesh, and dwelt among us, (and we beheld his glory, the glory as of the only begotten of the Father, (Matt.1:20, Matt.3:17 below)) full of grace and truth.

Jn.1:1 In the beginning was the Word, and the Word was with God, and the Word was God (Re.1:6, Lk.1:47 below).

Matt.3:17 And lo a voice from heaven, saying, This is my beloved Son (Matt.1:20 below), in whom I am well pleased.

Matt.1:20 But while he thought on these things, behold, the angel of the Lord appeared unto him in a dream, saying, Joseph, thou son of David, fear not to take unto thee Mary thy wife: for that which is conceived in her is of the Holy Ghost (Jn.1:14, Matt.3:17 above).

Col.2:9 For in him dwelleth ALL the fulness of the Godhead bodily (Re.1:6 above).
