God is male. If not, He can not be our FATHER.

What specifically makes God (prior to the birth of Jesus) male?

The voice that thundered from heaven .... was it male or female? The finger that wrote 10 commandments on tablets of stone .... male or female?

I think there is a difference in God being male and God being assigned a male gender for our benefit. Being male serves God no purpose at all.

And in what way is God male? He possesses neither chromasomes or genitalia.

No. You are missing the point. God can't possibly be male because He doesn't have male reproductive organs. Forget that the Bible refers to Him as male because that's just because of how different languages were written. God truly is an "it."

Voices and fingers don't have gender. Those things aren't what makes us our gender.

He had a deep voice...?
