If He created mankind in His image, and mankind is both males and females, shouldn't God have both sets of... uh... reproductive equipment... ?

Well, since in the beginning the Hebrews were polytheists, us was referring to a pantheon of Gods, some of which may have been female as well as the males.

God is a complete spiritual entity (if you will) He created man in His own image and in that man was both male and female components (Wisdom and Understanding) When God created Eve He took the Female out and made man into two BEINGS. That is why a couple is a complete unit and more powerful than just half of the equation. Two brains are better than one - so long as the two brains are NOT of the same 'cloth.' In Him are both reason and compassion, so as parents we are to be GOD towards our children.....

No. God said Let us create mankind in our image, and made Adam. Then he made eve out of adam. If they were both made from the dust at the same time, yes I guess he would be. Also. God might not have a gender. There is not sexual intercourse in heaven obviously, which is the only reason that they would have sexual organs. Besides. I don't think it's the biggest of your worries.
God Bless anyway.....

who tall you that mankind is male and female?, matter gave God the opportunity to create the material World before of that God Jesus and the family of God were pure positive energies "the energies of God", there was not reproduction of a body by physical contact, though energies will learn by contact and many of them were to experience masculinity and femininity. though not reproduction but of their own intensities and or sensitivities, Woman's been more sensitive that man's that were more intense energies. <<>>

Since a hermaphrodite is a material being with both sets of genitalia, it's highly unlikely that a completely SPIRITUAL being would have ANY genitalia.
Naturally Jesus' glorified human body has male genitalia, but I seriously doubt He has the female organs. There's no need for Him to be a hermaphrodite to do His salvific work.

perhaps god is a non-physical kinda being and equipment is irrelevant. religions with a clue realize that god is a combination of both"genders" energies, simply stated. less sophisticated cultures, their gnp notwithstanding, view their one true god as male, at least at the fundamentalist level, for simpler adherents. this often leads to a rather lopsided view of reality, which usually resolves into a fascist state led by immature psychopathic imbeciles. sound familiar?

God is spirit (wind). That has been reveal. His name is: I am that I am.
God create man in his image. What is the image of the wind?
God created both male and female. Again God is spirit.
God reveals and man observes. All you know about God is that he/she/it is spirit (again wind). There is no revelation about God's genitalia.
Next time, read the book.

LOL.
Reproductive equipment didn't exist until God created it...uh...them.
"In our image" has more to do with spiritual design than physical.

God is like ENERGY. Supreme POWER. Energy can create anybody with the help of matter, but don't have any SEX. Not only we humans, whole universe is a manifestation of ENERGY and MATTER.

He meant in His SPIRITUAL image. God is above gender, tho our rather patriarchal theology refers to God as "Him".
