Since God tells us in the Bible that He created us in His Own Image, I don't envision him as either sex, or with a particular color of skin. I know that may be hard for some, but I just don't. I see all colors and both male and female.

God is neither male nor female because he is NOT a human. When will people ever realize this? God is referred to in a masculine way in most parts of the Bible because for authority purposes.

Males are the heads of the household and the heads of the church because God is male. Nothing made him male. Thats just how he always has been.

Jesus Christ was/is male. ----- sexuality is a human, procreational
"tool" that God created for our benefit . God does not have sexuality
unless you consider the omnipotent description of Gods being
that encompasses all.

Genesis 1:27 So God created man in his own image, in the image , in the image of God created he him; male and female created he them.
The Holy Spirit helped the men of God to write the Bible.

The Bible describes God with both male and female qualities. Jesus refers to Him as the Father. It's probably the best way he could describe to us our relationship with Him.

Male chauvinism. I'll worship a female god any day after all women were hear first. Mitochondria DNA does not lie.

He refers to Himself as male. He is God. How can you argue that?

The way the writings reflect god and the way people perceive god from the writings. It doesn't make it true. Noone really knows.

well according to christianity he is considered the father of christ. That's why he is labeled male. For other religions I'm not exactly sure.
