I keep hearing repeatedly that God is genderless, yet it always says He in the Bible and not She and if God wanted to be female wouldn't He have wanted to have been born a girl?

Gender is an interesting one A_R. It is a bit of a mystery in that we find it problematic to think outside the terms of gender. Sure, we give it lip service yet in reality a God with no gender as we understand it doesn't fit comfortably into the boxes we've made.I keep hearing repeatedly that God is genderless, yet it always says He in the Bible and not She and if God wanted to be female wouldn't He have wanted to have been born a girl?
good reply, lets take it a bit futher, is not "EVE" a man, meaning, as you said, TAKEN out of the first man. (bone of my bome, and flesh of my flesh), another Adam, as in MANKIND. but as another man, their "function" as a female man is different from the male man.Gender is an interesting one A_R.

I've been thinking of this:- Eve was made from Adams rib ie, he formed the woman from a part of the man. He didn't do that with the animals......with them, he called them into existence with both their genders....hmm, interesting huh?
Again...to me God obviously had something other than in mind than he did with the creation of the animals. For instance, he made Adam with male reproductive organs before Eve was around. That in itself tells a story.....why or what, I don't know.
Personally I think God encompasses both what we know as male and female attributes with the dominant 'factor' as far as humanity is concerned, being male. Now, I don't know any more than that......but as I said earlier, it's a bit of a mystery.

is your body/flesh male or female, or is your spirit gender based? John 3:6 "That which is born of the flesh is flesh; and that which is born of the Spirit is spirit." so the Spirit give "BIRTH?" and are you not "BIRTHED or BORN of the Spirit?.The Father is male. Same with the Son and Spirit.
In God's plan there is the male role and the female role. To accomplish His final purpose, both are necessary!I keep hearing repeatedly that God is genderless, yet it always says He in the Bible and not She and if God wanted to be female wouldn't He have wanted to have been born a girl?
Adam and Eve were both made in God's likeness. Adam first and then the female part of him was taken out by God and made into a woman. We are all made in God's likeness but God has both masculine and feminine qualities but His Son was definitely male.I keep hearing repeatedly that God is genderless, yet it always says He in the Bible and not She and if God wanted to be female wouldn't He have wanted to have been born a girl?
is not the Son, God himself in, in, in, flesh... 1 Timothy 3:16. now was that flesh male, or was the Spirit "IN " that flesh, who is God male?.Adam and Eve were both made in God's likeness. Adam first and then the female part of him was taken out by God and made into a woman. We are all made in God's likeness but God has both masculine and feminine qualities but His Son was definitely male.
Yes, a male in need of a wife, but not a physical one. He is the Bridegroom. The Bride is to consist of you and me without regard to our physical gender.Adam and Eve were both made in God's likeness.

AMEN, just as circumcision.... was it for MALES only? if so then females are left out of salvation?Yes, a male in need of a wife, but not a physical one. He is the Bridegroom. The Bride is to consist of you and without regard to our physical gender.
‘was for males only’ Makes me think on Romans 3:29-30 Is he the God of the Jews only? is he not also of the Gentiles? Yes, of the Gentiles also: [30] Seeing it is one God, which shall justify the circumcision by faith, and uncircumcision through faith.AMEN, just as circumcision.... was it for MALES only?
if so then females are left out of salvation?

I'm sorry for the 'whiney females' in your life.It's the rules of language in every language on the planet for God to be male not female...
You are correct that God is genderless...he never had to listen to a whiney female until he had Adam to commiserate with over the situation.
