The Female Image of God Dave Deal

The Gender of God is what he says it is, not what we determine, or think he ought to be. When women and men discuss the image of God, they must tune in to his language, and learn the way he divides, adds, and multiplies, If only we would listen more. God gave us parents so we would experience both genders, and how we should relate to them, they are different in form, personality, and spirit. The Father is more authoritative, and protective, and the mother is gentle and caring. These features of God are to show us his complete and perfect balance in one being, and the power to produce a perfect Son, Jesus, who has both genders in him, to continue the image in all of us. Male and female, in the image of God.
