"feminine" isn't a nature. It's a biological distinction. God is not a biological creature

How could God create a cat if He is not a cat? See what I mean?

Re: Female Nature

Years ago I argued here that God transcended gender, and is in reality neither male nor female.

I was smacked down quite vigorously from many sources.

(I still believe it though )

Re: Female Nature

God is Spirit, He is not man, except in Christ. He is not woman either, He is Spirit.

And yes, He has what we might consider "crossgender" attributes. And it does not reflect on HIS manhood, because He is not man.

Maybe He came as a male, because it would not have worked for Jesus to have a earthly father and God as mother.

The only redeem value of this thread is the possible that we could come to understand that God as Spirit is not man. All the he's in this post notwithstanding!!! LOL

By the way, Prax, He didn't make cat in His image.

You would be biblical with this assessment, I have no idea why that would have gotten you smacked???

God is neuter gender as far as physical attributes go, other than the incarnation.

He does however seem to relate to man as the male gender
