How can he be a "He"? It seems like he would be just as much "she" or "it" as "he"...

If you believe what the Bible sais then Father God is always mentioned in the masculine. If you believe in whatever then he is whatever you want him to be. Jesus is considered the 2nd person of the Godhead/ trinity, He was 100% man and 100% God. Not a woman. Remember we, mankind, was made in his image. Notice "mankind", even women are considered as mankind.

God is male term, Goddess, a female term. Which word do you see in your scriptures? If you believe in a god, you believe what you read, since you can't (and won't) see him.
Why does it take an Atheist to make sense of things that Christians say they believe in?

We must use words. In the old days, it would not have even occured to people to refer to God as "She". Women were seen as barely human.
Pronouns do not matter except to the one using them. Not the words, but the reality they symbolize; words cover more than reveal, but they are what we have.
God is the sum of all consciousness, but is more than the sum of Its parts.

Fact is: He is neither.
Gender exists on earth.
In heaven they are neither.
God is spoken of as 'He' only to allow us to comprehend more easily.
The Bible speaks of God's eyes and ears as well, but He does not literally have eyes and ears ...in our sense of the term.
However, it enables us to more quickly get the idea.

God can be `he' or `she' or anything you name but most importantly, you know where to find God.
