Well, now I know who NOT to interact with on the forum. Some people's intellectual acumen is equivalent to number 7 birdshot at 300 yards.

He, God, is referrred to as being male so it stands to reason His Spirit is male also.
It's just neuter because that is how grammar works. It does not mean a spirit is not a person nor does it mean a spirit is not male or female. It's just grammar. Other words have gender too like Logos. Logos is a masculine word and often is used NOT to refer to jesus.

Spirit is what God is or has just as you and I have spirit too. In Hebrew Spirit is feminine

See I don't get hung up on what gender God is. It's not relevant. God is our Father. He has a father relationship to us. Jesus is our high Priest and our Shepherd etc etc etc. Relationship is what is important, Understanding His role and relationship to us is what is important.

I think the only reason God is called a HE is because that is what WE call him because of the order of creation and gender roles God ordained.

BTW anyone wanna speculate why we won't marry in heaven "being like the angels"? What is it about angels that we will be like them and not marrying?

The bible says angels are spirits too. Are the all male? Will we be all male? lol

  2. The Son is God himself in a human form or "God manifested in the flesh" (1Tim 3:16)
  3. Every sinner must repent of their sins.
  4. That Jesus name baptism is the only biblical mode of water baptism.
  5. That the Holy Ghost is for today and is received by faith with the initial evidence of speaking in tongues.
  6. The saint will go on to strive to live a holy life, pleasing to God.

I don't think our souls or spirits are male. I think we humans are male or female species due to genetics. It's a physical trait.

They are not stupid, but the conversation thus far has been rather ridiculous

What's ridiculous is people coming here and asking for proof that God is male. That, my friend, is what is ridiculous.

Who asked for proof that God is male? Or who insists God is male without proof? I never said anything you said was ridiculous.

Ridiculous is someone saying denies Jesus was human because they said God's Spirit does not have a Y chromosome. That is rediculous

Deseret was the one that said God's Spirit had a Y chromosome that he passed on to Jesus.
