Happy Riches, answers question from anonymous
Some religious people claim many things that are different to what other people claim, so if they believe that can can be measured, the question would be, Why is this so?
On the basis the God cannot be measured, this is understandable, after all, how does one measure infinity? To do so is is an impossibility.
If they claim that God cannot be determined, surely one would ask, What do you mean?
Either a person can determine that there has to be a Creator by the evidence that exists—which is all around us—or on the basis that the concept of chance informs us that it is impossible for seasons to repeat.
Yet we are told that the Earth spins with a tilt on an invisible axis at 1040 mph, has a Moon flying around it every month travelling at 2088 mph, while together these two objects circuit the Sun at speeds approaching 70,000 mph. According to the ignorati, they have determined that this has being happening for billions of years—all by chance—and they expect you to believe them!
On the basis of knowledge and the fact that chance does not repeat itself day in, day out, I have determined that there has to be a Creator. Moreover, I have determined that the Creator is worthy of my absolute attention and devotion.
When you speak of god, I am assuming that you mean the god of this world, who is referred to in the masculine gender. The Evil One apparently is given this designation by the writers of the Bible. Now whether they cannot conceive of a woman being a witch or a bitch or an evil person is not stated. Nevertheless, there is a woman in the Bible who probably would be called a bitch today—Jezebel. That was some evil woman, from what is stated in the Scriptures. Even Lord Jesus had some serious issues with her.
- But I have this against you, that you tolerate the woman Jezebel, who calls herself a prophetess and is teaching and beguiling my servants to practice immorality and to eat food sacrificed to idols. (Revelation 2:20)
However, you just might be meaning that you would like to know why the Creator God—who has everybody’s number—is referred to in the masculine rather than the feminine gender.
God is referred to as Father, because He is the source of all life. In the natural, we understand that women have not the ability to bring forth children on their own, they need a man, which means every child needs a father, if the child is to exist.
When God created the first human, the Bible tells us that this was a He, a man, a progenitor of life. We know that this is true because only men produce the goodies to impregnate women so they can bring forth life, otherwise their eggs are dead.—Just like humans are spiritually dead, unless impregnated with the Word of Life.
However, since the first human created was a man, the masculine designation has always referred to the human species, and this has been understood as being both men and women, because the first woman was created from the man—not sure what evolutionists believe, but whatever they come up with is definitely the result of fantasy.
Now you ask how is it that the Bible manages to refer to gods in the masculine. The writers of the Bible have not referred to all gods in the masculine, the queen of heaven/virgin cult—which is an abomination to the Lord God—focuses on a feminine divinity that is adored by her devotees.
- Thus says the Lord of hosts, the God of Israel: You and your wives have declared with your mouths, and have fulfilled it with your hands, saying, ‘We will surely perform our vows that we have made, to burn incense to the queen of heaven and to pour out libations to her.’ Then confirm your vows and perform your vows! (Jeremiah 44:25)
God Himself created man in his own image, male and female, He created them. The man is representative of the Lord God, from whom the woman was taken but not cloned, because, instead of male genitals, she was given what we refer to as female genitals. This dichotomy that we know as gender was actually intended when the Lord God created man, for the man was created both male and female. The woman, Eve, was not intended to be a clone, but a giver of life, the mother of all living, once she had been inseminated by the man, Adam, and had given birth to her children.
- So God created man in his own image, in the image of God he created him; male and female he created them. (Genesis 1:27)
- For Adam was formed first, then Eve; (1 Timothy 2:13)
- Thus it is written, “The first man Adam became a living being”; the last Adam became a life-giving spirit. (1 Corinthians 15:45)
Contrary to what many people want to believe, the Bible teaches that there is an order to Creation, which was created in an orderly way. This order needs to be upheld and maintained for the common good. This applies especially to relationships that exist between men and women, Lord Jesus Christ and God the Father.
- But I want you to understand that the head of every man is Christ, the head of a woman is her husband, and the head of Christ is God. (1 Corinthians 11:3)
Words have definitions so that people can understand each other, because if there are no definitions that are understood, them people may as well use any symbol (e.g. #*%&@$#@&) for what they say is meaningless.
Since there is a need for order and meaning so that people can have a level of significance in the relationships they possess with one another, when it comes to the purpose of God, our Heavenly Father is the head of Lord Jesus Christ; who is the head of each man; who (if he has one) is the head of his wife; who is the head of her children. This order is known as patriarchal because it refers back to the headship of the Heavenly Father, whom every human father represents as a type.
When we recognize that to make reference to the Creator God, who is our Heavenly Father, in the masculine form— “He Is” = “I Am”—we are becoming authentic human beings. This is because to pay Almighty God the homage that is rightfully His, we are beginning to see the Light of Life, and capable of seeing much more clearly the facts of life, now that they are defined.
Those who decide to usurp the order that enables the Universe to function and the purpose of God to be established, seek chaos and its consequences, not life.
