As a former J.W., I learned that the Christian Heavenly Parents are, God the Father, and son, Jesus Christ--?

Question

Two Male figures. The latest population Stats find female world population at 52%. Where is our representation in Heaven? Is the Christian God Democratic? Is one of the male figures an imposter? Are the Heavenly Parents Homosexuals? Because that is the image Christianity presents to me. Are we really worshipping the "Devil?

Answer 1

And this is exactly why I came to believe in Wicca after being raised in a very devout Christian home. God AND Goddess - male and female, both in everything around us, giving us masculine and feminine in all of nature and ourselves, as well as keeping a balance.

Answer 2

The Holy Family is Mary, Joseph and Jesus...

Our Heavenly parents are God.... God is male and female.. alpha and omega.... omnipotent and omnipresent.

The Trinity is God the father, Jesus the son, and the holy Spirit.
The easiest way that I can describe the trinity.. is that you are labeled a woman (im assuming), your a daughter, you a wife (for arguments sake) , your a worker... etc.. You have many labels and definintions of who you are. Just as God does.

So, we women are very well represented in the heavens. So have no worries :)

Answer 3

i understand what you're saying yet here is the place the confusion is presented in. Jesus is a god, he's a divine one and since the Trinity people choose for to point out in John a million:a million, he's with God. Now, the father, is Jehovah. He on my own is Almighty God. as that's defined, Jesus the son is interior the "bosom place" of the father. he's "First Born" going decrease back eons of time. each thing else got here into life by way of this order. all people is somewhat puzzled by using church homes taking Jehovah's call out of the bible close to to 7,000 circumstances. instead they placed the be conscious God or Lord. So, needless to say, people think of that Jesus Christ is the almighty. that's between the main "cunning acts" that devil does to deceive. he's deceptive the entire earth. Re 12:9 (for this reason the international is in chaos)

Answer 4

The change in the male/female makeup has been a recent evolution, and more related to our birth control practices than anything. Statistically, in the past, the first to the third child conceived will be male, but now we are either preventing from developing, or aborting those children. The birth rate for male children has dropped more than 25% in the last 30 years. In another 10-20 years, pluralistic marriages, as well as men being forced to quit their white collar jobs and take blue collar jobs, will become common. Soon after that, women will have to be forced to take the blue collar jobs formally done only by men. There was a conference here in the Spring of Social Historians and this was one of the subjects. There is a major cultural change coming about if birth trends continue and will women be ready to face the realities of it? Will they be ready to force women to take more dangerous jobs, formerly held primarily by men, that have death rates 700 times higher than those mostly held by women?

Answer 5

In Christianity, there is but one true Parent (called the Father, probably due to the patriarchal society the ancient Hebrews were) as we understand the term. Although, being pure spirit, this person of the Trinity (ONE GOD manifested to our understanding as three Persons, but that's another question) likely does not have gender as we understand it.

Jesus (called Christ and Son) is the "only Son" of the Father and therefore not a "parent" though all was created through him. Those who follow Christ are "adopted daughters and sons" of the Father and, therefore, brothers and sisters of Christ. Since he is human, as well as God, Jesus is always referred as male, since that is what he is as we know Him. It should be noted that, even though he is called "Son," Jesus is not created but eternally existing.

The Spirit is perhaps least understood as the third Person. Most scholars describe the Spirit as though genderless but still use the pronoun "He" for other reasons (namely, it's improper to refer to a person as "it").

Since there is the noted lack of a "female" model in the Godhead, many Christian traditions look to Biblical and historical figures to fill that need (Mary, Ruth, Theresa of Lisieux, etc). I encourage you to learn more about them, as well.

As for your other questions:
Democratic? - No. Each Person is complete (none "lacks" anything the other Persons possess)
Impostor? - No. Each Person is True God.
Homosexual? - No. You have to be "sexual" before you can be "****-" or "hetero-."
Worshiping the Devil? - That would be silly.

I hope to have updated your image.

Answer 6

The first holy trinity was Man, Mother and Child. Osiris, Isis and Horace. We once had a matriarchal system but now we have a patriarchal society. Everything is a man and they took away the mother concept. The west took out the woman and added the Holy spirit. The west had a problem with the woman. They would rather sit in a hot gymnasium, eat strawberries and sweat with a bunch of men instead of rubbing on a soft beautiful Mother Earth!.

Answer 7

There are 3 different titles that God held.He was God,He came in the flesh(Jesus)He is the holy spirit drawing all men to himself.
Colossians 2:9(God needed a body to come and bring us salvation,a blood sacrifice,therefore the body of Jesus.)For in him dwelleth all the fullness of the Godhead bodily. (John Chap.1)In the beginning was the word,and the word was with God,and the word was God.2.The same was in the beginning with God.All things were made by him;and without him was not anything made that was made. (Read whole chapter)Verse 14 says-And the word was made flesh,and dwelt among us(Christ).

Answer 8

Your question is so out of touch with reality that I fear you are standing at the mouth of the abyss. God is neither male or female... yet for his redemptive plan, he needed to chose a physical form. Considering the male dominated cultures of the time, I think He chose wisely. A family tree is traced by the male lineage... at least up until femenists will change that, so it is natural for Jesus to call attention to His Father... for He is of Him. This is why in Numbers you will see a list of descendants and they are all listed by the male's names. By cultural tradition it goes by the male seed. Sorry if this bothers you, it is what it is! There is no conspiracy... there is not a plan to under-represent women, it is just the way it is becasue of our own human cultural biases (God simply uses our actions/culture as the paint on the canvos of history). And since we as humans need a reference for God in order to imagine someone we have never seen, we tend to assign humanistic attributes (like sex) even if they don't have such attributes. Our understanding is limited, getting stuck on a humanistic attribute is like trying to run a race and tripping on a grain of sand right at the starting line. Inconceivable, illogical... astounding!

Answer 9

God is the Almighty God. Earthly "stats" are not part of God's adjenda. You are thinking in the mind of mortal man and not according to the spiritual aspect of what God wants from us.

Romans 12:2 And be not conformed to this world: but be ye transformed by the renewing of your mind, that ye may prove what is that good, and acceptable, and perfect, will of God.

The only "stats" that God cares about are the names written in the Lamb's book of life.

Psalms 118:8 It is better to trust in the LORD than to put confidence in man.

Answer 10

I am Catholic, we believe in the Trinity. We believe that there are 3 persons in one God, God the Father, God the Son(Jesus) and God the Holy Spirit. Look at a shamrock, its 3 leaves but still one shamrock.If this doesn't fully answer your question look up Holy Trinity on the Internet and see what information it gives you.

Answer 11

Well, first off...God is neither male or female and has motherly qualities as well as fatherly ones. The Holy Spirit is called the comforter and has female qualities. The Wisdom of God is also refered to as female (read Proverbs)...so the female is AT LEAST represented 50/50. To presume homosexuality for the Divinity who doesn't need sex or genitalia to create is just plain dumb.
