I do not believe that GOD has a sex definition!
SEX definition is for the destination between males and females due to the role each plays in bringing life into this world!
GOD has no requirement for any thing for God's Existence. Humans/mammals require the presence of two entities, male and female because off the different roles Nature has assigned to them to bring forth life!
The fallacy of humans, is when we try to relate GOD according to our human requirements.
There is no way for humans to understand GOD!
Try understanding where the programming should come from that matter, we call a seed, should absorb moisture and heat from soil, develop and grow leaves, bloom, create more seeds and repeat that process! Yes,m science may try to explain what is happening, but what put all of this into place? Why? what created the energy? The program? the resources?
Yes, we say, this and this combined and this happened! But what produced this and programmed it so that when added to that the outcome would be what ever? Where did all of this come from and why?
And, as vast as space is, why this place? Why you and I, for what purpose? Nothing in existence requires the presence of humans?
Why even come here, be here a while and leave? Our presence supports nothing, and is not required by nature at all!

Disagree somewhat. There is only One God that exists in three persons (Father, Son and Holy Ghost). He chose to express Himself in male gender terms for sake of clarity in teaching (God is actually a Spirit Being). The gender term teaches us certain aspects about God that could not be expressed in any other way. Our brain and vocabulary and understanding etc are so limited compared to the reality of God, that He had to reveal Himself in terms that could be "grasped" inspite of our severe limitations. So yes, He is male because that is how He revealed Himself to mankind.

We can't understand god. - AGREE - The power is beyond explanation
But we understand it exists - AGREE - There is something powerful out there.
There's only one of it - AGREE - all gods and goddesses powers are nothing but man made fragments of it.
and it's male - NO!!!! NO!!!! NO!!!! - If it was male at least we would have some form of understanding.

No.
No one has ever proved that all the Gods ever written of, or spoken of by the human race, exist or don't exist. Also, having a single tyrannical Male God is rather illogical.

I guess it depends what path you follow. I believe everything is ying and yang... meaning God is both Male and Female. If God was only male, why would he create female? It said in the bible that God wanted to create for Adam, a companion, but unless God is both, God wouldn't know what a companion was? Right? Hope this helps?!

No. Not everyone agree's God is male. I think God is beyond our human definitions, including gender.

As our personal look towards this world; and as God created man, he was created more stronger and to be a head of the family, etc than woman. So we tend to think God as a male and thats why we refer Him as He :) . But God is beyond our comprehension.
But I can surely tell you that God is there. I feel His presence when I pray and His love is not like that of human, its The true love. Whatever bible speaks is true, though I cudn't understand it earlier, but its all true. Jesus has indeed come to show God's love to this world. I am not worthy than anybody else to feel God's presence, but If I too can feel and get God's love, anyone earnestly seeking can. So do talk to God and ask Him to answer you.

God has no gender. We use the male notation when speaking of him, but according to all biblical writings, he has no gender.
We do not and can not understand God. God created us and he is ultimately in control of what we know and understand. He will grant wisdom and knowledge to us as we grow and mature.
God states in the bible that he created each and every one of us with a modicum"little bit" of faith. The book of Romans tells us that even nature cries out his Glory.
Yes, there is only one God, the one who created us for his purpose, not our own. He manifests himself in many ways, shapes and forms, but he is still but one true and all powerful God.
Again, God is not male nor female, he has no gender. He doesnt need one.

Well, sorta right.
We can't understand God **FULLY**. We can only comprehend Him as far as He reveals Himself to us and enables us to comprehend.
"God" is capitalized when used as a proper noun.
There's only one God, who is manifested in three distinct but inseparable Persons: God the Father, God the Son, and God the Holy Spirit. That's the idea of the Holy Trinity. Three Persons, one God.
I really doubt that God is a male in the earthly sense, but He calls Himself our "Father". That's good enough for me!
Males are referred to as "he" or "him", or, in this case, "He" or "Him," not "it".
Aside from those little disagreements, I agree.

God..is not "IT"..He is a person....now to answer your question..God, out of love, revealed Himself to us, through Nature, the Prophets and of course Jesus Christ..meaning we can understand Him, but not fully..
God is a spirit..He is neither male or female..
